It's not so much question-begging as bandaid proposals. The problem is over-collateralization of the economy (indebtedness) and...
...the consequent desperate search for marginal improvements in productivity; or the alternate Ponzi-style kick-the-can capital...
...investments which invariably deploy capital (badly) as an attempt to wring productivity from the remaining vestiges of labour.
Yeah but I'm just focusing on his sleight of hand between "jobs" and "providing self-worth".
I think a big part of the "self-worth" bit is knowing you can *autonomously* make ends meet. That's pretty important for self worth.
Yeah. It's not the job, it's the autonomy and the _earning_. Makework doesn't supply that.
I've been wrestling with how to say that better.
