"Managerialism has become the pretext for creating a new covert form of feudalism, where wealth and position are allocated not on economic but political grounds-"

"If the existence of bullshit jobs seems to defy the logic of capitalism, one possible reason for their proliferation might be that the existing system isn't capitalism-....In many ways, it resembles classic medieval feudalism, displaying the same tendency to create endless hierarchies of lords, vassals, and retainers."

David Graeber

Thanks to Graeber for putting words behind my creeping dread. Didn’t need the weird jab at Kurt Vonnegut like 7/8 of the way into the book, so minus a half star.

Considered, well argued and necessary. Best read from your home office while on the clock.
