In this episode, we delve into George Orwell's "Animal Farm" to explore its striking relevance to modern labor issues faced in 2025. By drawing parallels between a classic allegory and today's retirement crisis, we uncover themes of power, exploitation, and worker betrayal. We also explore how biblical teachings on labor and justice resonate with these discussions, offering insights into systemic changes, corporate structures, and the need for economic resets similar to the biblical Jubilee.

We critically examine contemporary voices and their interpretations of retirement, contrasted with ancient mandates for rest and fairness, while highlighting the stark contrast between early pension plans and present-day economic realities. Furthermore, we address the monopolization of economic knowledge and its effects on the average worker, advocating for an economy grounded in justice and the common good, inspired by both literature and Scripture.
