most of the jobs would not be that hard if people would not do them like they did in den middle ages, there are tools, protection clothing that cost nearly nothing and if you dont invest a day or two in building a trail/road but climb rocks for centurys.. the “it is what it is” mentality will never change anything
Sorry but most of these workers/communities just look stupid, they do everything manually, with the most basic equipment, no wonder they struggle. Sure if we were mining with basic tools like them, we would look just as bad here. It’s all about having the right tools for the job. It’s like they live in another century. Also they don’t use (enough) protective gear, sure it’s dangerous .. and stupid!
The fact that consumer pricing on good can go through the roof and none of that at all gets passed on to these workers is a blatant example of excessive profiteering by the few companies who seem to own EVERYTHING.
can you please implement the metric system. I’m at 2:27 and had to google 3x. Pounds, miles, Fahrenheit -> kg, km, °C
