Graeber also explains quite clearly that the the rise in bullshit jobs, stems entirely with from the human races preoccupation with debt and money. I found these insights to be quite compelling.
I have been initially introduced the David Graebers work, after reading Bullshit Jobs: A theory a book which I found really compelling, thought provoking and one which had really made me reflect long and hard on my career along with my entire working life! Throughout the book, Graeber repeatedly refers to his book Debt : The first 5000 years in cross referencing facts that he elaborates on with in the book. It is in this era that we also first encounter a society divided into debtors and creditors—which lives on in full force to this day. For more than 5,000 years, since the beginnings of the first agrarian empires, humans have used elaborate credit systems to buy and sell goods—that is, long before the invention of coins or cash.
