> back-breaking work of farming, transporting, building, cleaning, purifying, and cooking

Those hard working class are not the most respected or even earning. They are also just doing that for basic needs, minimum wage. This truck driver story itself is about them. Pandemic made it even more clear what society think about them.

Other hand people that are making personal data selling websites, playing stock market, destroying planet for greed are doing great. They can suck millions by unethical means, retire, buy yacht. But goddammit, as soon as someone from lower or middle class wants to slack off, they are told to be useless part of society, work hard, break health. Feels like some kind of capitalist propaganda.
