Re: Parenti "Democarcy for the Few" and Marx

I Agree with Dave’s writing on the Wheen tape for the most part. It is easy to say and show how there is many employees in this world that basically slave their lives away on a day to day basis without reaping many benefits. But I feel like when talking about employees that have a job that they sit in a 3 by 3 foot cubicle indicates they are well off by the world’s standards. It does seem unfair that the boss sits and watches his employees labor away while he becomes richer, but could society really function without this role? I think it is important to have the role of the boss and the higher ranked people in the labor force so employees constantly have something to work towards. Everyone wants to be the boss and enjoy all the money and power, and I feel that it is good people strive on a daily basis to become powerful in the company or business. This allows the level of production in our country to be constantly set to a higher standard.
