“Morning after morning we must dress and eat;
Year after year, fret over taxes.
A thousand of us scrambling for a penny,
We knock our heads together and yell for dear life.”
From a poem by Han Shan who lived in China nobody knows exactly when but probably a little over a thousand years ago in the T’ang dynasty. Note much of the basics have changed since then. (Translated by Burton Watson)
