A lot of call-centre jobs aren’t actually *that* far off this. One might even think schools soften children up for those sorts of jobs. And of course, if you don’t want a job like that, there’s always universal credit, a system every bit as punitive. 😞

Except for the details of the rules, this is exactly how most people live everyday. It isn't noticed, because everyone else has complied....and before them, their parents and grandparents complied, who dutifully gave a wink and nod of their approval. Chilling.
