The Subliminal Man by J.G. Ballard
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Global Delusion

Technology was supposed to let the working man work less. Instead everyone in the family now has to work more hours and retire later just to service the debt payments. Who wants that? And if no one does want it, why does it happen? Somehow the fix is in. As Leonard Cohen sang: “Everybody knows.” But no one seems to mind. So much for free will.
