The first law of thermodynamics says that the best you can do is break even. The second law of thermodynamics says that you always lose.

I think this is the only way to step out of the exploitation, although it's a rarity for many to actually be able to do this.

It's not exploitation when I chose to do the work myself, which rewards me with a lot of money to spend on whatever I want. Delicious food, travel, hobbies, etc.
Life is a series of choices.
You could decide to never work again in your life, and those companies will find plenty of other people to fill those roles. They don't need you.

In a few quadrillion years, we'll be glad we can heat our homes twice, as the heat death of the universe approaches.

Yes because the very richest inherited their wealth, or had parents with incredible wealth who funded their success.

Reply to comment by MPMorePower in Spring and summer have almost the exact same amount of daylight hours because the longest day falls on the first day of summer by youpviver
>I have no idea where you are getting June 1st from
That's according to the meteorological definition of summer rather than the astronomical one. Both are used across the world, but I've also only considered June 21st to be the start of summer.

>June 21st, which is not the first day of summer.
It is according to the astronomical definition of summer. You're using the meteorological definition. Both definitions are commonly used.
>summer has more daylight hours than because of the effect of the tilt
Not when you consider the summer to start at the summer solstice.

I know, cuz they're the ones controlling everything. You only chase happiness, that shouldn't be chased
