10 During the week we dedicate ourselves to working, eating, and sleeping to have the strength to continue day after day. We earn the money the system needs to devour to survive: we religiously pay energy and telecommunications companies, car and mortgage payments, gas, we go to the supermarket... We also buy cosmetics to improve our physical appearance, clothes from popular brands, shoes, and, if we're lucky, one of those big franchises that populate the outdoor areas of some large shopping mall. And we try to go on vacation at least once a year, so that the big airlines, hotels, and vacation rental companies don't have to worry about not making record profits.
