Bet it already feels like months ago, and months more before your next decent break. We call ourselves free citizens in a free democracy, but there&#8217;s no &#8216;free&#8217; about it. Food isn&#8217;t free, housing and other essentials aren&#8217;t free (they would be in socialism), and neither are we. Instead of living our best lives, we are chained by rents, mortgages and bills to the treadmill of wage-slavery.<\/p>\n<p>It will hardly warm your heart to learn that FTSE 100 bosses <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/business\/2025\/jan\/06\/ftse-100-bosses-more-pay-by-noon-today-than-average-worker-in-a-year\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">made more money by noon on 6 January<\/a> than the average worker (ie, you) makes in a year.
