This. Capitalism got me so hard in its grips that I usually can't do much else than working, sleeping, eating and repeating.

Right there with you. I absolutely hate working for the sole privilege of having enough money to buy food, but nowhere near enough money to save up for a home.

Well I'm paid pretty well but 42h work weeks kill all my enjoyment of life. I just bought a new car to use in my free time and it mostly only saw the road from home to work.
