Agreed. Whenever I hear some big successful entrepreneur saying how everything is better now then it used to be (and sincerely believe this to be the case) - They are proving themselves to be completely out of touch with reality.<p>Sure, today&#x27;s working class can get access to more goods and services than ever before but when it comes to things that actually matter like our time and our ability to feel fulfilled in our work; we have never been so poor.<p>People today are unhappy. Our working conditions are deteriorating and we are starting to feel like slaves. Our rents or mortgages are massive and we cannot afford to lose our jobs. People are no longer allowed to be themselves because saying the wrong thing to the wrong person might have serious negative repercussions for their careers and livelihoods. People are turning to video games and drugs to give themselves the feeling of fulfilment that they desperately need.<p>Based on US statistics I&#x27;m like in the top 5% of household income bracket but I feel like a slave at work - I seriously wonder how people in the bottom 95% must feel!<p>The distribution of income seems so unnatural: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;money.cnn.com&#x2F;calculator&#x2F;pf&#x2F;income-rank&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;money.cnn.com&#x2F;calculator&#x2F;pf&#x2F;income-rank&#x2F;</a>
I bet the distribution of wealth is even worse.
