But in the lowest-paid, unskilled Social Class V, the rate is 116%. In a fluid society the effort to "keep up" may be stressful. But the English laborer cannot even start to catch up, let alone keep up. This leaves him with a heavy lump of resentment and frustration.

Always, the lion dies, but his is also the final glory...
...have a good deal of trouble when taken off the centrifuge and forced to live like other chickens in the earth's normal 1-G field. "It looks as if they get a stoppage of the gut," he says. "After all, at 4-Gs their hearts were pumping fluid with the normal density of molten iron." At the present point in their experiments, neither Wunder nor Smith cares to predict the effect on the human body of space-age gravitational changes. But the logical extension of the test results so far would indicate that a child growing...
