Working hard and doing what you're told is no longer yielding the promised American Dream of security, agency and liberty.
List only:
- Wage stagflation
- Planned obsolecence
- Traffic congestion (and cost)
- Workloads
- Loss of purchasing power aka inflation
- Loss of political agency
- Financial insecurity
- Nonsensical narratives
