Lucretius (a follower of Epicurus) pointed out that if you can't be content with just existing, getting more out of life won't actually make you happy. Yeah, being a wage slave sucks, and we need to liberate ourselves. But we also have to learn to just be happy with being, or we'll always be stuck running away from ourselves.
I don't mean to be rude and disregard the wisdom in your comment. There is truly value to it. However, considering that we are entirely capable of designing a society that is just and equitable but insist on the shit we have now, the comment sounds like a mantra for slaves.
