Not gonna write an essay but:
Karl Marx and his communist manifesto argues that in a capitalist society, major companies like Microsoft, Apple, Amazon etc kill the creativity of an individual. This is because most companies have a “pre-assigned” workload for the worker. Marx argues against “homo sapiens” (man the knower) and says that we are homo fabers (man the fabricator ). Our work is based on what we can invent with our knowledge, not just having the knowledge. If you think about it: it’s pretty true.
I’m not for communism nor do I think Obama is a communist. But the shortcomings of the U.S economic system would make creativity the best trait to have in a constant state of repetitive tasks.
