'Recent research in Canada has shown the dangers of much employment under capitalism. Not hard exhausting physical work in this case, but office work.
A stressful job, a demanding boss, tight deadlines and feeling undervalued can all greatly increase the risk of a serious heart problem, which may make having a stroke more likely. Even a relatively high wage does little to reduce the risks. More generally, work-related stress can increase the risk of high blood pressure.
Work is essential to human society, but employment under capitalism is about making a profit for the employer, not meeting the needs of consumers or those who do the work.'
