Human activity is accepted as just another commodity to be sold to the highest bidder, which in most cases amounts to a very low estimate of and even less interest in the full range of creative human qualities. What is wanted in the Job Market are mainly various types of cogfolk to drive the machinery that churns out the billions of pieces that go to make up various predigested and predetermined substitutes for living. These in turn serve as fresh bait for the parasite to further transmit the Bubonic Lifestyle. So successful is this parasite that many human beings have no objections whatsoever to being constantly referred to as Consumers . That this word differs not at all in meaning from Mindless Locusts seems to be of no concern whatsoever to those to whom it is applied.
Human beings are innately capable, given half a chance, of doing very wonderful things.
Our species, in its very rare healthy state, has a great gift for being inventive, ingenious practical idealists. As things stand, we are usually unable to employ ourselves in the exercise of our very best capacities even for enlightened self-interest. As for pure altruism, this is a condition we are so heavily inoculated against from birth that few of us ever experience it at all. For most of us, unless the current manipulators of humanity want our specific talents as fodder for the disease-machinery of Consumptive Lifestyles, we are out of luck. There are, of course, happy exceptions to this general catastrophe.
