Zelfs als flex-werker met een vast contract ben je niet veilig.

zoals Fredric Jameson zegt:

"...if I ask myself what would today be the most radical demand to make on our system -- that demand which could not be fulfilled or satisfied without transforming the system beyond recognition, and which would at once usher in a society structurally distinct from this one in every conceivable way, from the psychological to the sociological, from the cultural to the political -- it would be the demand for full employment, universal full employment around the globe. As the economic apologists for the system today have tirelessly instructed us, capitalism cannot flourish under full employment; it requires a reserve army of the unemployed in order to function and to avoid inflation. That first monkey-wrench of full employment would then be compounded by the universality of the requirement, inasmuch as capitalism also requires a frontier, and perpetual expansion, in order to sustain its inner dynamic. But at this point the utopianism of the demand becomes circular, for it is also clear, not only that the establishment of full employment would transform the system, but also that the system would have to be already transformed, in advance, in order for full employment to be established. I would not call this a vicious circle, exactly; but it certainly reveals the space of the utopian leap, the gap between our empirical present and the utopian arrangements of this imaginary future."
(uit 'The Politics of Utopia')

Het is ondanks het jargon een treffende gedachte. Maar waarschijnlijk alleen voor wie aan den lijve heeft ondervonden wat het is om zomaar een baan te verliezen.
