Why is manual labor so unfairly paid.
You might say oh it’s a low skill job but somebody has to do it. Also manual labor is arguably the most important form of labor, our societies would collapse without trash collectors, tradesmen, construction workers, and sewer workers. I feel like anyone willing to do a physically hard job full time should never have to worry about basic living expenses.

So, lets look at how much a billion dollars actually is, first: $1 billion = $1000 million Oh, I can do better .. Example: Lets dream big for a moment and imagine, we're making $100k per year at some job (most of us don't have that luxury .. I sure didn't). Then, we'd have to work for 10.000 years – without spending a single dime of it – in order to become a billionaire (not calculating taxes). If you wanna be a hundredfold billionaire ($100 billion or more at your disposal), you'll have to work that $100k-job for at least 1 million years .. also without spending a single dime. Any hundredfold billionaire, who wants to tell me, they've “earned it and saved up” instead of “inhereted it”, are liars and I dare them to prove me wrong. Take this, billionaires :p … and pay your effin' taxes!!!!
Please respond. Interested in this story.
I can understand certain industries needing 8 hours like service industry (restaurant, hotels, retail, etc.) but for most white collar work – it seems 25 hours is more than enough? I don't believe people work all those 8 hours, maybe max 5-6.
