The point of this graphic is that you should dedicate your labour to doing something that you love and also benefits your community.
My wife and I were just talking about this topic and we landed on the Jessie Eisenberg movie VIVARIUM. It's ab allegory for being trapped in our dystopia where there are forces at work trying to oppress us with useless labour. The fact is, currently, the only choice we have is to discover work that is meaningful for us -- personally. My job is a helper job. I pay taxes. I do my helper job knowing I've contributed. It lightens the pain of the dystopia while we wait for the top 10% to start paying their fair share again. The Eisenhower tax rates were real.
See VIVARIUM -- it may not be a banned film but the corporations sure as fuck don't want you to see it. Welcome to your world.
