Oh my God

Is this what I would be hearing if I actually watched this loser? ‘People live until 83-85 and are retiring at 65 and this is a bad thing’? People should literally just work until they drop dead?

Yeah let’s just plug them into the matrix and make them power our cities but without the dream world, cause making that costs money.

You’d rob us of our final twenty years of freedom? What is going on? What is wrong with people like this? At 65 my body would be barely a shadow between life and death; I shouldn’t have peace in my final twenty years?

Oh easy enough for him to say, he’s a millionaire; he can retire NOW if he wanted to. Can you believe most boomers vote for the same people he votes for?

    “You’re leaving productivity on the table!”

    Aren’t there like, an entire generation of 20-somethings just itching to get their lives started and porky is having cold feet over hiring them? Just hire them.

      Honestly I WOULD be genuinely surprised he has any fans, considering all they have to do is ask themselves how his advice would work out for them, but I’m 90% sure they all think they’ll be successful by then and it won’t be them suffering; as for everyone else, including people on their own side, if they fail or become their stepping stone then that’s on them.

      Also, producing what and for who? It’s not like anyone has time to enjoy what I’m producing other than like a small group of really rich fuckers who don’t have to work.

      It’s mindless. Just brainlessly doing repetitive tasks until your body gives out. No brighter future vision of anything outside of being fodder for corrupt kings. We might as well be ants as much as humans, except if ants had our resources they’d probably take care of each other better.
