Wake up. Get up. Go. Surge.
And why again?
“How in the hell could a man enjoy being awakened at 6:30 a.m. by an alarm clock, leap out of bed, dress, force-feed, shit, piss, brush teeth and hair, and fight traffic to get to a place where essentially you made lots of money for somebody else and were asked to be grateful for the opportunity to do so?”

AI Created: Artificial Intelligence talking about Usury.
Me: Why could this be a consequence of usury: “How in the hell could a man enjoy being awakened at 6:30 a.m. by an alarm clock, leap out of bed, dress, force-feed, shit, piss, brush teeth and hair, and fight traffic to get to a place where essentially you made lots of money for somebody else and were asked to be grateful for the opportunity to do so?”?
ChatGPT (jan23):
The quote you provided is a commentary on the negative effects of the traditional 9-to-5 workday and the ways in which it can be seen as a form of exploitation, particularly when people are not being fairly compensated for their labor. The idea is that people are sacrificing their time and energy for the benefit of others, and are not receiving the full value of the work they are doing.
Usury can have a similar effect, in that it can create a situation where individuals are forced to work in order to pay off their debt, and are not able to fully benefit from the fruits of their labor. With high-interest loans, the borrower may have to work excessive hours or take on multiple jobs just to make ends meet, and may have less time and energy to spend on other aspects of their lives such as family, community, or personal development. In this sense, usury can be seen as a form of exploitation, where borrowers are working to benefit lenders rather than themselves.
Additionally, usury can also lead to a situation of economic inequality, where a small group of lenders hold a disproportionate amount of wealth and power, while borrowers struggle to make ends meet. This can lead to feelings of resentment and alienation, and can contribute to a sense that the system is unjust and not working in the best interest of the majority of people.
