"[T]he Protestant work ethic (and all of its attendant anxieties) maintains its hold on the people of this country, dooming us forever to the backward belief that rest will only come with death."

The lack of time off, lack of wage growth, and near total absence of organized labor that has been put on he newest generations of workers are more than enough to support this belief, thankyouverymuch.

Guess what, Heathens? Heaven's a'waitin' ya,
right AFTER ya die! So, work Hard,
spend money (you don't have),
and quitchyur Bitchin'.

'Cause Heaven is just so AWESOME!

(Oh, and if you happen to be a Slave, making your Master
Happy is actually alls you need think / worry about.)

Remember, just cause YOU ain't "happy" doesn't mean
Patriarchy / Capitalism isn't about as near-perfect a thing
as a thing could be.
