There are no material incentives for the oldschool work-ethic. This is a part of the fall of the middleclass; you will get a miniscule bump in wages for seriously working, but its not worth it, compared to just coasting and getting 92-95% of that while taking no responsibility. Alot of works are cushy in sense that you can choose how much effort to put in, and get almost same pay. Youre not gonna make a hyperspace jump to a new social cohort because of how hard you work, unless you are self-employed. So people dont work hard. I think Covid19 was a major shift in mentality here, at least for me. I never got up to speed after C19, not cause i was looking for intentionally slacking, but because im tired and the incentives i have, dont make up for the expense of energy.


For lowerclass, that isnt really the case. If you work at McD, and there is a line of 10 people, you will have to serve 10 people and that is that.

The short of it is the social contract has been broken and most people (particularly men) have little to gain from working hard.
It's easier to find motivation when you have a family to provide for, know your work is benefiting the local community, and that it's all for something.
Women being encouraged to enter the work force and put off families (if not actively scorn them) devalues labor and takes away the prime motivator to improve your standard of living over bare comfort. Additionally, due to women raising themselves up in socioeconomic status and "yaaasss girlboss, need man like fish need bicycle" culture, trying to even find anyone to start a family with like pulling teeth.
Your effort goes to benefiting people you will never meet, while often destroying the local community due to the destruction of small business. If you're like most people, you're being bled by interest rates on loans you were told you need to get ahead.

It's like those old-school action films where a guy punches other men in the face for 1.5 hours and by the end he's rich, has met the love of his life and all his personality flaws are mended.

You're a dullard. Technology is a force multiplier, a farmer growing food for 10 people instead of 1.1 people does mean 9 former farmers starve, if means the world now has the same amount of food PLUS the economic outputs of the nine former farmers, everyone, including but not exclusively the farmer, are better off. This is an iron law of productivity. A worker with a mopping machine can mop more floor, a company using the machine can do the job faster and cheaper, the worker gets more goods for his wages because the customer-company pays less for the mopping service and can therefore charge less for THEIR goods/services.

Because work culture in America has been warped, boomers want people to be slaves so zoomer niggers went around the opposite direction and demanded shit for free.

Part of this is also because their parents (gen x, older gen y) were bad at being parents and just spoiled them, so where millennials got participation trophies and thus assumed a college degree would be the participation trophy of education/skill and guarantee a job, zoomers assume if they scream on twitter enough someone will give them free money because it worked for all the petty bullshit like fortnite and trans rights or whatever so they think shitting your pants will make people give you stuff to fuck off.

Another part of it is that abortion only got legalized in 1973. Boomers were the first generation to get genuinely 'pregnancy trapped' because contraceptives besides condoms existed, so women would "forget" to take the pill or "forget" to get an abortion. Boomers got divorce raped and remarried multiple times. I've seen old guys with young wives with 10 year old zoomers who also have adult kids in their early 40s.

The boomer mindset is "I had to stop smoking weed and listening to woodstock hippie rock because I got a chick pregnant and had to get a job, so you should have to get a job too!". Necessity the mother of invention, necessity the mother of labor.

But millennials were told to get a job before having kids, so a lot of them don't have kids. Zoomers were told that women will rape them in courts with false rape accusations, so their birthrate is even lower adjusted for teen pregnancy rates over the decades. Zoomers don't feel a need to bust ass at 20, they have zero obligations compared to any previous generation. No wars (boomers had vietnam, gen x had Gulf 1 and 2, millennials had afghanistan, gulf 2 and syria), ukraine is a proxy war. Zoomers are told to work, but they are also not needed as a source of manpower. They are non-essential, but essential to flipping burgers.

It's a case of boomers telling you you don't deserve to be paid well, but also seething because they need you to work or no burger.

The main difference is that Boomers got born into a time where there was basically no debt and therefore debt was still a main lever of growth, you could just throw debt at anything and returns on that debt would be insane.

And that is with all the bullshit methodology that they now use to pretend GDP is actually growing. This means that boomers got to reap all of the benefits of easy profits and easy returns on debt, do you fucking realise that you little incel nigger? This means that for every dollar you could expect 3-5x more returns than nowadays. Does that fit into your little shithead? Sorry that I didnt entertain your incel theory of pregnancy traps

Neurotic Jews all drunk and hyped up on Talmud anti-gentile doctrine seem to think "well, what if we just stopped paying everyone and still made them work for us...think of the profits! mehehehe!" while not recognizing that's slavery and no amount of pilpul is going to allow them to dodge around that or dress it up appropriately enough to fool even the dumbest goy.

The fact of the matter is, working more than 3 hours a day is UNNATURAL. Hunter gatherers only worked 20 hours a week, so did peasants in the middle ages. Only during the industrial revolution did an 8 hour workday become the norm. If you accept this crime against humanity you must be the biggest mental cuck ever.

Women working is the natural state of an industrialized society. The only time they didn't was the brief window after ww1 and ww2 when the value of labor was sky high due to the entire non American world either being undeveloped and feudal or a smoldering bombed out crater. Before then women worked like third world women work now - 16 hour days in clothing factories, dying at 30 from the dust lung or whatever.

Current day jobs are a waste of human life and time. Don't get me wrong, I understand the importance of working, but having to work so fucking long for a large portion of your life is demoralizing and just seems pointless. On top of that, most of the value of your work will go to your employer (assuming salary or wage contract) and you don't have much control how much work you get, or how you do it.

They just aren’t physical. I’m Gen x. I’m 45. I have comfortable money for my family, however I hate sitting at a ducking computer. So what I do? I build fences for a while. After that, I’ve taken up a delivery job for Amazon. 3 days a week. Don’t care about the pay. Sweet and work gives you life energy as a man. The pay is ok enough so if I was in my 20s, 30s (without a family) I’d do this job 5x a week and be proud of it. We live I. This backwards shit time, where sweat equity isn’t valued because kids are hooked up to the fucking matrix 24/7. We need to get back to that physical work kind of thing, atleast for a burgeoning portion of men. Not expecting even close to all. Or half or a quarter, just some.

Difference there is the nature of the work being done and the culture surrounding it, I highly doubt women working in sweatshop conditions were being told or believed it was better than having a family.
Furthermore, those working arrangements were required to keep the household afloat. Now many "girlboss" jobs are self aggrandizing positions used to fuel a lifestyle that views familial responsibility as a burden.
You're right in that it's more complicated than "women at work bad", but my central point about the breakdown of the family unit and lack of motivation for men still holds true.

These lines really nail it. Middle-class comp has flattened out so much that an ass-buster and a box-checker invariably end up living the same kind of lifestyle anyway. They'll both collect similar sub-inflation pay raises every year (if they get raises at all) and they'll both get passed up for the next big promotion when the company decides to bring in an outside hire. Only one will feel like an idiot when it happens. And it won't even be clear that the "lucky" winner is all that lucky after all, given the fact that it turns out they also live a very similar lifestyle to their two new subordinates but with the added headache of a whole laundry list of extra responsibilities. The next actual lifestyle improvement is a few paygrades above all three of them, and they're so gatekept by an un-meritocratic whirlwind of politics and HR social activism and bullshit that the idea that getting there by working hard is possible would probably make most people laugh if you ever got them drunk and honest enough to really discuss it.
