Wage Slave Freedom: Hard Work Never Works
We’ve been taught to believe in hard work.
It’s in our DNA. We call it the work ethic and it drives our corporations and organizations.
Unfortunately, the work ethic can be a sham. It’s been usurped by people who don’t have your best interest at heart. It becomes a tool to control you.
Don’t get me wrong, working hard is critical to success, but you have to ask “whose success?” When your work ethic is driving you to work for something or someone you don’t believe in just for a paycheck, then it’s a sham.
And it’s a coldly calculated sham. You have been indoctrinated into wage slavery since school. Teachers drilled it. Society reinforces it. And when you enter the work force, the companies take advantage of it by promoting the thought that the only reward for hard work is harder work.
You might ask, “Isn’t the reward your pay?” First, no organization will pay you more than what your worth. Second, most companies are single-winner systems where the person on top gets a majority of the rewards with less of the work.
Do I sound like Karl Marx, or something? I hope not, because I am a free market type of guy. After all, the government, as an employer is no better and is, in fact, worse than the soulless corporation that socialists love to hate.
There’s a few reasons why the free market gives us wage slavery… and can deliver us from a career of servitude to pompous apparatchiks.
To begin with, there are a lot of natural wage-slaves. People use their position in an organization to reflect and reinforce their status. Working hard has less to do with financial freedom than it does to self-worth. I don’t stand judgment on them.
Second, the free market, especially in today’s rapidly accessible free markets, can give you the tools and the power to overcome wage slavery more easily than ever before.
You must be the competition. You have more access to the means of production, money and the means of distribution now than in any time in history. To free yourself from wage slavery, look to forming your own streams of income and creating your own products.
In our industry, exponential computing power gives you the ability to trade with the big guys, too. Online Investing AI is preparing systems that have the power of advanced investing technology that can be accessed by individual traders.
We hope it’s just the start of freedom from wage slavery for our clients.
