          You made it clear that the answer doesn’t matter?

          If I have money, then I can ignored because I am a hypocrite. If I’m poor, then I can be ignored because I’m a loser.

          If you must know, I’m a general operator in a factory. I weld stuff onto car parts and watch robots all day. It’s fine, I have enough money to pay off the loans for my car and trailer, but I damn well know that the company reports profits off of the surplus value created by my labor.

          I’ll probably never retire unless I take out the 9mm retirement package 🤷‍♀️

            The answer didn’t matter, because of the philosophy you espoused. You are the architect.
