production of endless capital. This naively proposes those with differing intellectual inclinations are incapable of achieving similar goals. Coexisting is not an option with the larger part of people not even attempting to understand. Instead harsh judgment is given in effort of setting forth labels. This coincides with the journey of a man who is by American standards, subpar. He unknowingly breaks all the rules established by society in the motion…
