'Before it gets shoved under the bed next to the boworker . . . '

As closing lines to articles goes, you'd have to go some to top the closing line to last month's Pathfinders column in the Socialist Standard

Capitalists think they can save money by forcing puritanical self-denial on workers, but with the stress of exploitation we face, we don’t need temperance, we need to lose our tempers. [My emphasis.]

The link to the article is here and, if you start at the top, you get the full benefit of the pay-off line.

Now, where is this month's Socialist Standard

Home Is Where The Heart Attack is ...

Cracking Pathfinder column from this month's Socialist Standard:

"It is the year 2028. You have just put the kids to bed, and adjusted your ageing parents nightly feed tubes. It is 11.00 pm and you are still wearing the same dressing gown you got up in. You are tired out with looking after the whole family in one flat, and now it’s time to go to work . . ." [Home Is Where The Heart Attack is ...]
