as a society grows, it becomes more complex. As a society becomes more educated, a higher standard of living becomes inevitable. Things leaves us with a vacuum and an ironic twist. The higher standard of living that accompanies high wage, intellect intensive jobs, the more "shit" jobs need to be filled to support this "educated" class. Now as the rift grows, we experience a middle class, and we have no choice but to give some aid to all, to provide that "neccisary" goods do not become prohibitivly expensive. We did this with food, then power, and taxes. Eventually when the needs to compete in the society expand to overlap higher functioning technologies, and services; they will become part of the list of neccisary goods.
