What's not inspiring about having a nice house in a beach suburb with TVs, music players, mobile phones, tablets, vacuum cleaners, stoves and ovens, dish washers, air-conditioners, cars, etc?

You can't have one without the other.

In 1971 when I ran out of money living at Bells Beach I went and got a couple of weeks casual labour on the Victorian Railroads. I did all the work for a 4 man crew loading freight into carriages while they sat around drinking warm beer from bottles held together in large groups with plastic by taking off the bottle tops and using straws and chatting. As far as I could tell all the stories of overmanning, featherbedding and corrupt management were true.
