The worker and his role in economy

The bottom of the pyramid of Indian economy is the position held by the poor workers. The rural poor live in forests, in pastures, banks and shorelines. They are the crucial part of the economy, their survival is important for they are the backbone of society. The farmers /workers/labourers are the poor people whose work is used or exploited by rest of the society.The farmer toils and produces grains which is the basis of entire economy. He makes more than he requires, and his produce is used by all others.Rest of the society, transfers this produce, transports it, distributes it, stores it and consumes it. To gain legal possession over his produce, we device value systems.We justify the unjust takeover, and we give no rights to the worker/farmer who deserves.He exists invisibly providing us with his labour; he holds no possessions. In rural India, the cultural invention of temples, ghats,chowpals and farms are his last hideaways/homes. In urban India he has no common space to live in, he is the modern nomad. But we still need his labour, and the urban India turns his labour into a commodity. When there is speedy development, there is loss of livelihood for many workers and he has nothing to fall back on. We legally make sure to extract work and pay minimum just for his food. He is forced to the limits of drudgery.He may become extinct.And if the base of the pyramid crumbles, the economy will be shattered. In  ocean ecology, the smallest living thing, the plankton, supports all lives including the whales. So the smallest person supports the whole population with his labour, and if he is lost, all will suffer. So the poor must be recognised and uplifted for the survival of all society.
