To understand what the Make-Work class
is you need look no farther than the nearest graffiti. Graffiti
artists are members of the Make-Work class. Out of sheer love of
public displays these young people create their graffiti which makes
work for a paid class of city workers who cover up the graffiti. The
same is true for arsonists who love their work and create plenty of
work for home builders.
The make-work class includes car thieves, most of whom don't earn money from their efforts, rapists (who generate jobs for the justice and penal system and therapists) and fall down drunk homeless (plenty of work for ambulance and hospital personnel).
My friend Marius tells of a swindler who worked three years on a $110,000 swindle. He could have earned more at McDonalds.
I'm not happy that so many criminals work for free and the rest for below minimum wage, and create so much unhappiness, but I do see the benefits in the GNP.
