Rich people are obsessed with controlling normal people lives. Like these people don’t work from home or wherever they want. This is about flexing authority and dominance.

They don't "work" at all, in the sense that most of us understand that word.
I'm so sick of rich old people that haven't worked an honest day in years or even their entire lives telling me how I'm supposed to work. Like bitch, you probably don't even understand what those people do for work you're just mad they're not as miserable as you want them to be. Or more likely not as miserable as they truly are on the inside...
...you're just mad they're not as miserable as you want them to be. Or more likely not as miserable as they truly are on the inside...
This is probably more true than even they realize.
And even if we assume they work(ed) those alleged 14h days, 6.5 days a week, that does not mean the rest of the world must have the same work aspirations or methods. The idea that a silkscreen printer must work the same hours as the company president, for example, is arbitrary and insane.
For one reason or another, they ONLY value accumulation of currency. We value other things and they hate that. They only know work and "grinding" and think that because they don't have love, or hobbies, or appreciation of downtime, or whatever - Nobody else should either.
Do mass DoD employee firings, I dare you. Watch your military ships sink and your planes crash. With no one to maintain them, that's what's going to happen.
