| Passengers exhausted, rest and take a break on train traveling through countryside.. Humanity makes progress due to the struggle of often the most unseen. Exhaustion, numbness, and time worn down, travels with the rural peasants as they do with the train to their destination. While many in the city and other parts of the developed world give so little for so much, these individuals give so much for so little. Born into a life of restrictions, year after year; not even knowing what to hope for. Many do not live with the televisions and are not subjected to mainstream mass marketing advertisements. Their wants and needs come from the rumors and dreams of consumption shared from relatives , the byproducts which leak out of the city. While they may use animal byproducts, and anything else to increase productivity; it is themselves which will become the useful byproduct of the undeveloped world. Cheap labor, farmed for the consumption by the developed and wealthy worlds minority. As they may miss the advertising and consumption encouraging strategies of the cities; it is the developed mainstream consumers who will miss the reality tv shows of the undeveloped. As sport cars become hybrids, and mp3s become common place; the income gap widens, while the barricades which encase the peasant from birth become increasingly difficult to escape from. |
