Etymology is something I'm fascinated with So let's break down some common words in the English language and see what spells we're under shall we?
Let's start with the word employee.
employ (v.) "make use of, apply; increase; entangle; devote," from Latin implicare "enfold, involve, be connected with, unite, associate," from assimilated form of in- (from PIE root *en "in") + plicare "to fold" (from PIE root *plek- "to plait"). Imply, which is the same word, retains more of the original sense.
I guess I mean we're basically entangled into financial slavery.
