One is not allowed to be outside the system, the rules must be followed. People seem incapable of believing the evidence of there own eyes much of the time. Much is now institutionally and morally corrupt and yet people accept it as normal. The UK has gone septic&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Shock Horror, but now even those who believe that they are middle class and will be immune from stuff that happens to inarticulate types in low budget leisure wear have started to realize that they too can be pulled into a downward spiral and having the label ex-middle class striver will not save them as they have become tainted with the sin of being poor. No wonder then that those that are young don&#8217;t get it either. We don&#8217;t need worker drones like we used to and educating people is likely to make them start thinking and question whats really happening.
