Ah, what a beautiful morning. This is a great day to take a deep breath, sip my coffee, and participate in the Meritocracy

Let us all reflect on the beauty of a system that assigns rewards in perfect proportion to our efforts

Let us gaze in wonders on the leaders of this system, who self-evidently deserve to be there by virtue of having done the most work, and who graciously hold the door open for the rest of us to follow

Let us avoid the fallen, who must be tainted by indelible moral rot to have been assigned such a lowly status by such a fair system

Let us strive ever daily for more rewards, for surely they are so close we can touch them, and only a modest increase in output will unlock this wondrous bounty

Onward! Onward! Onward!
