We Think We Have To Work Because

Education Itself Is A Putting Off, A Postponement; We Are Told To Work Hard To Get Good Results. Why? So We Can Get A Good Job. What Is A Good Job? One That Pays Well. Oh. And That's It? All This Suffering, Merely So That We Can Earn A Lot Of Money, Which, Even If We Manage It, Will Not Solve Our Problems Anyway? It's A Tragically Limited Idea Of What Life Is All About.

Surely, Anyway, A Working Day Of Eight Or Nine Hours Which Is Not Split By A Nap Is Simply Too Much For A Human Being To Take, Day In, Day Out, And Particularly So In Hot Weather.

There Are A Lot Of Little Tricks You Can Do To Inject A Bit More Time Into The Day. Most Important Is Limiting Yourself To A 40 Hour Week, Not Working 50 Hours Or 60 Or 70. It's Just Crazy. It's Actually Irresponsible To You And Irresponsible To Your Family And Friends. Why Should Your Employer's Profits Be More Important Than Your Own Family? You're Not Even Going To Get Any Of The Profits - All You Get Is Not Losing Your Job. It's A Very Negative System.

I Don't Put Much Faith In The Political System Because It's A Question Of How Are You Going To Run Capitalism, Not How Are We Going To Develop A Different System To Capitalism.

I Would Like To Propose Slow Cycling. Commute By Bike. At A Stroke, You Remove The Need For And Absurd Cost Of Public Transport. Cycling Is Almost Completely Free. There Is No Longer Any Need For The Gym As You Get Fit By Cycling. And You Can Go At Your Own Pace.
