I think it is more about the nature of work in today’s world. I think if we each felt that our day to day labor contributed to a better world where we were taking care of eachother, we would be proud of our labor and have a desire to continue bringing about good things. But, a lot of us don’t see how our work helps the world, or if we do, we don’t share in the reward for doing so.
