Well, I think you’re partly wrong. Those jobs don’t have to be miserable. They really don’t. They can be perfectly fun, being worked at by people who are happy to do so.

Our current economy has far too many low-paying and aggravating service jobs (Nickle and Dimed is a great book exploring this, for anyone interested), but that’s not about the job, it’s just about the conditions of the job.

It is not true that the wealthy always are wealthy due to the oppression and exploitation of an underclass, or that working class jobs have to be unsatisfactory or their workers unhappy.

What you want is for the workers to be happy; you don’t want an end to the wealthy. Right?
