The Abolition of Work (by Bob Black)

No one should ever work.

Work is the source of nearly all the misery in the world. Almost all the evil you'd care to name comes from working or from living in a world designed for work. In order to stop suffering, we have to stop working.


Some of you are probably familiar with this one but to me it was worth reading again.

Thank you Livvy, for posting this. It's been so very long since I read my first copy of this back in the days when my ex and I ran our own bookshop back in the '80s and had copies of these for sale along with various other odd zines of that era (remember Reality Hackers?)
