You're only doing that to serve a ruling class that doesn't want to pay you.
Good job, your nation is made up of useful idiots.
no necessarily, we've mostly done things that don't serve the ruling class only, like clearing up after natural desasters
You must not know how societies function.
how do they function then? really, I'm always in for learning something
The ruling class needs workers to work in order to exploit them.
This doesn't mean all work is intrinsically serving the ruling class. But in a society set up to funnel as much money as possible to its rulers, then it does.
