I wanted to give two examples of illustrating the opposing ideologies of the working class. Sometime in the distant Soviet past, I had the opportunity to join the artists at a factory and help draw a huge stand - a worker, a collective farmer and an intellectual with glasses in the middle. The stand was designed in a monumental style without a hint of eroticism and the absence of any temptation, it was done according to the order "must", but I want to dilute it with cheap wine so as not to work dry, where the main carrot was "paradise in communism."And now, after a long time, I "wanted" to depict the series "Working abroad" as opposed to the "must" system. Yes, yes, this is from Freud's grandfather, where the carrot is the temptation of the ancient instincts "I want". If you want a cool car, you have to earn money or steal successfully, and again the struggle between the two systems "want" and "must". So, there is no escape from the struggle of the dual consciousness). It's another matter when you love your job and they also get paid for it - this is called happiness.
