Work liberation

For quite some time in human history, we have realized that we do not know everything, we cannot do everything, and our tendency to have others do some work for us has emerged. And of course, because we need the work and knowledge of others, the question of whether we will pay for this work also arises.

Most likely, this tendency for hardworking hands and foreign knowledge led in certain societies at certain times to the simple enslavement of second-class people and thus satisfying the needs for labor in the lowest positions of free workers without any rights or simply slaves according to religious, national or other criteria. For many nations or religious organizations that felt superior or superior to others, such a solution to satisfying the needs for labor was the simplest and cheapest and was usually achieved through military conquest.

We can console ourselves that in recent times the worker has been freed from the hardships of daily living with his paid work and can thus at least easily support himself. All these rules should apply in a modern industrial society to all workers regardless of religious or national affiliation, regardless of gender, age and origin. At least ideally-typically, such a worker who offers his work and knowledge should be protected from exploitation and from the demand for free work, which should enable him to have quite a few so-called social workers' revolutions and uprisings.

Of course, the labor market is also under the fatal curve of demand and supply. This means that the more workers there are on the labor market, the lower their rights and wages. The fewer workers there are on the labor market, the higher their rights and wages.

With the mass appearance of unemployment or surplus labor, holes are automatically created in the labor market that allow for lawlessness, exploitation or manipulation.

And so, once again, employers' aspirations for the cheapest possible labor force confront each other, confronting workers' desires for so-called fair pay for a job well done. Paid work is supposed to liberate workers from the ideal model of at least begging for a living, although workers would also like to take a vacation and perhaps even create something.

Creating a family at the worker level with dependent members is increasingly common, even in a modern industrial society with a regulated status of workers' rights and obligations, leading workers to so-called begging or the need for social assistance from the state.
