Aforementioned: aphorisms and questions for 2015
Manual labour is green. Yes, use it where possible, but pay for it equitably to enable opportunity. 
What is wrong with this picture? The answer is not that one man is pulling another in a rickshaw. The shame is that at a guess the rider will pay the puller a pittance for his service. It will be nothing remotely close to his own hourly compensation. One wonders how this equation would change if the rider were required to pay, let us say, even one twelfth of his own hourly wage. This picture shows labour that has been grossly cheapened.
