QuoteShunning labor is the conventional evidence of wealth and the mark of social standing.
In Ponzi America having wealth depends on everyone else having wealth. Most everyone has borrowed wealth and is actually in debt. Debt is something Americans aspired to. I will pretend to have wealth if you do. As long as we all pretend it is 'all good'. And fuck everybody else who can't pretend to have shit.
But now payments due exceed accounts received. As it should be.
