The idea that anyone can get more 'stature' by working longer and harder for less is as absurd as the idea that one can become sober by drinking more booze. What? Are we to be proud that we are to be exploited more harshly on behalf of people who get to live like sultans?
Does Donald Trump have any human virtue?
You have the answer buried there. Life of course sux big time workin' jobs like fast foodie stuff. The answer is, sorta as you say is to take a ride on ethanol because it *(numbs / gets you sky high) regardless of how things really are.
*The effect of ethanol varies depending on the person. Some folks get sky high on the stuff, others get numbed, while lot's of *Asians get alcohol flush syndrome. Russians showed the way by getting smashed out of minds due to crappy living conditions.

In my case a small amount stifles the crippling anxiety that goes with Asperger's... any more hits me the wrong way and is unpleasant. I trust alcohol, whose properties are well known, far more than I trust psychotropic medicines. I had a chance to go on Prozac.... I think a little alcohol is safer and less capricious. I wouldn't want to get drunk.
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
