In a piece called "Civilization and Our Discontents," Clayton Morgareidge shows that the glories of Civilization have always required the coerced labor of forgotten masses, and the same is true of the comforts of modern life: they are manufactured by the poor for the enjoyment of the affluent. It's time to turn the tables. You can read this piece on Clayton's  blog.
