Tomorrow's Horoscope May 19th, 2019

in #horoscope5 years ago

You may miss freedom.
You didn't have the money nor social status nor a partner.
But no one tied you down to anything.
No one cared about you before.
So you were free to say anything.

Now you have got one or more of those.
You are more powerful than ever.
But you realize you need to take responsibilities of them at the same time.

These days some people only claim their rights.
I understand that minorities need to claim them, or they are just forgotten.
The problem is that some capitalists also only claim their rights and don't take any responsibilities as capitalists.
They believe that they have won the game of Capitalism because they have worked hard, and therefore, what they got is all theirs.

Their attitude is correct under Capitalism.
Capitalism works with an incentive for people to get more money or power.
On the other hand, it is said "noblesse oblige" at which capitalists, the winners of Capitalism, need to give to workers.
What workers can all do is to hope that capitalists will use their power and money correctly.

Under the monarchy in the past, what citizens could is to hope that their king/queen will make policies which are fair to citizens.
And these days. We can choose politicians, but we cannot choose capitalists who dominate the economy.
Nothing has changed since the monarchical days.

Capitalists say, "You can be capitalists as well if you work hard."
To be capitalists you need to be admitted to a "circle of capitalists".
Once you managed to be invited to the circle, you can even have a second chance after you fail once.

Tomorrow, you might realize that you could behave freely in the past because you didn't have anything.
You need to take responsibilities for what you have got.
You feel that you are restrained by the responsibilities because you are not like those irresponsible capitalists.

自由だった今までが懐かしいのかもしれない。
お金も、社会的地位も、パートナーもおらず、大したものは持っていなかったけれど。
その分、誰にも束縛されず。
注目されることもなかったけれど。
その分、誰の目をはばかる必要はなく、言動は自由で。

実際にそれらを手に入れてみると。
付随する責任と権利。
権利のみいただくということはできず。

私の世代以上(氷河期世代)になると。
自分の権利ばかりを主張し。
責任を果たさない人が多い傾向があると感じるのだけど。
自分が手に入れたものは自分のもの。
手に入れたのは自分だけの力。

資本主義はそもそもそういうものだけどね。
ノブレスオブリージュなどというけれど。
弱者は、強者の善意に期待するしか術がない。
王制の頃は、王族たちが民を思って政策を施してくれることを期待するのみで。
現代では、政治家は選べるけど、もう1つの権力者である、資本家は選ぶことができない。
労働者は、資本家が正しく富と権力を使うことを、期待するだけ。

あなたも資本家になるチャンスがあるなどと資本家はうそぶくけれど。
結局、資本家になるには、既存の資本家に気に入られなければならないという側面があって。
例えば、資本家にあなたのビジネスに投資してもらうには、彼らに気に入られ、仲間だと認識してもらう必要がある。
資本家サークルみたいなものがあって、そこに入れるか否かが分かれ道。
そこに一度入れば、1度や2度失敗しても、チャンスがまたもらえる。

明日、過去にあなたが自由だったのは、あなたが何も持っていなかったからだったのだ、と実感する瞬間があるのかもしれない。
