When I am allowed to choose to spend my time working twoards the actual benefit of society for a fair wage call me.
Until then I’m not doing any of this voluntarily, it’s against my will. Like a slave
It’s a constant fight for survival, we’ve made the horrible mistake of modeling our systems off of the cruel fuedal hierarchies of the past and the cruel uncaring themes of nature. These are things a fair civil society is supposed to oppose and ours is failing.
Sorry if I can’t delude myself into being a happy slave for some boomer on the internet lol
“Working towards the actual benefit of society” is subjective and I’m not sure what your definition is.
In Western Australia where I live there are several gargantuan projects under construction to use solar to crack hydrogen out of water for export to south east asia. 1,000s of construction jobs in these projects. A labourer without a trade qualification would probably earn at least 2x the average Australian full time wage doing that. A qualified trades person with experience in this type of project might earn 2.5 or even 3x average wage.
I volunteer as the treasurer for a local 18 bed refuge for teenagers without a safe place to live. They employ about a dozen social workers for the in-house and outreach programs. All of these people are earning close to the average full time wage.
My own job as an accountant is less directly “benefit of society” but I do find it satisfying to help people navigate complex situations.
I think most people are able to choose to spend their time working towards the actual benefit of society for a fair wage.
