2024-08-30 Karoshi and taxes
============================

Karoshi is when you are being worked to death without the use of
prison guards. Survive the intense pressure of the workplace, of
course! But then speak up about it. Name the organizations that are
part of this scheme to squeeze us for all the hours we help them make
a profit, name the techniques they use, start resisting in big and
small ways, help each other to resist. 99% of us are in this,
together.

I'm watching family members working long hours for the Swiss federal
government, and on the weekend, too, and I don't like it. I don't like
it one bit.

This is what happens when people want a balanced budget and tax cuts
for the rich: there's not enough money to go around, the work still
needs to get done, and so those who want to do a good job get to bear
the burden. The good start leaving. The experienced start leaving. The
longer this continues, the work is done by fewer people, desperate
people, inexperienced people, until it all fails, all at the same
time.

We need to vote for people and parties that want to increase the tax
burden for the rich, that want to solve the problems of tax evasion
and of capital flight. We need that money and the rich don't.
