It's men building their own prison. This type of materialism, while seeming to help people and the economy in the short run is actually incredibly destructive in the long run. Men are taught to base their whole identity off of personal success and turn life into a brutal 0 sum game. Most people simply just do not have the natural abilities for high powered careers and instead wind up working to death in abject misery. It is one of the worst forms of sexism, the implicit assumption that men have no worth other than their personal success. This is one of the reasons women cannot understand male aggression and cruelty. They do not have to live in this harsh reality and thus cannot understand how deeply it affects ones behavior.
