In fact, scarcely anyone at all escapes. "Do What You Love" — The Dangerous Work Mantra of Our Time. January 23, 2014 | Like this article?

How Did the World Become So Seduced by the Protestant Work Ethic. 1 of 1 people found this post helpful Posted Feb 19, 2014 - 1:57 PM: Economist Timothy Taylor asks this in his lecture series by the Teaching Company: "Would you rather live today and make $55,000 a year (solidly middle class) or live in 1925 (rich, in the top 1%)?
" He states that about 66% of his respondants pick "today," I think that answer elucidates a lot about why people like market economies. If you made $55k/year in 1925 you'd have servants, a large house, and be quite wealthy, although not super wealthy to the point where you'd weild a lot of power. However, you'd also only have access to 1925 level technology. If you make $55k/year today you're by no means rich. I think the comparison between being very rich just 85 years ago, and being middle class today shows why people like economic growth so much. People are seduced by the market system because it is demonstrably the best way to spur on economic growth and technological development.

In many ways the study of enclaves helps us understand elements of international relations, geopolitics and history in microcosm. veral examples below help to convince that issues relating to enclaves are long-standing and mainstream rather than ephemeral and deserve closer attention.
Although these examples relate to large and well-known situations, the questions and issues that they raise are valid for other, smaller enclaves. GibraltarWhy does Gibraltar remain staunchly British after more than 300 years despite it being the focus of long standing tension with neighbouring Spain? It may in part be because of political pressure as demonstrated by the 2002 referendum that saw more than 99 per cent of the population expressed their wish to remain British. But will this be respected by both governments in the long term or will it be sacrificed on the altar of international relations within the European Union? Other perhaps philosophical questions also arise. Schools, as Henry Parkes memorably said,... - The Sydney Morning Herald - smh.com.au. Wealth & Privilege: Ten Exclusive Enclaves. Let’s face it, Beverly Hills, the Hamptons, and Martha’s Vineyard are fatally overexposed.
This is an article about ten tiny exclusive places that most Americans have never heard of…. and that is just the way the residents want it. The ten places in this article are virtually unknown beyond their immediate geographic area and extremely elite. I have stumbled upon many tiny elite enclaves that for various reasons don’t make the Higley 1000. Most commonly because they are too tiny to register or are summer vacation spots that are dominated by second homeowners that report their income at their main residence. There are no racial statistics to report, the following places are almost exclusively non-Hispanic White with the exception of an occasional caretaker.
They are for the most part gated and the only view inside is through Bing Live Local or Google Earth. Here is a map of the ten places I am highlighting today: United States Map of Ten Exclusive Enclaves.
