This is a core inequality which I can't believe hasn't distilled out purely before in these musings.
For all the triviality of shopping - what colour shall our car be? shall we have blinds or curtains? what about a wooden floor in the kitchen? etc etc - the message seems to get lost by the time the workers are queing in the job centre. Anyone would have thought there was a war on the urgency and importants that the economists and government give to having a job.
If you don't work you will get no benefit and you will starve. It is a tough world and our economy must be prosperous.
Cut to the shopping center and the couple deciding whether to replace the toilet rug!
There is very little "important" in our lives and jobs anymore. This is another critical point that is missed in post-industrial economics.
