This isn't using the meme effectively.

"Nobody wants to work anymore for you" would've been closer

I like things to be explained explicitly.

Also, since work and exploitation are interchangeable in Capitalism, this meme says "nobody wants to work anymore/Nobody wants to WORK anymore". It's nonsense.

Capitalism has been very damaging to society. Instead spreading wealth to everyone, they were hoarded by a tiny group of people.

to be fair, they always said stuff like this.

nowadays, this phrase stimulates my burgeois propaganda gag reflex. get to fucking work before demanding us to.

Yeah I saw an image of headlines just like this going back to the 1800s and never stopping since.

This is so real, especially with the petit bourgeoisie.

I think there should be a variant of this meme format that suits better. Bart is disappointed but also embarrassed and ashamed; Homer is trying to show some support for him (but sort of failing) . It doesn't really match the spirit of the lines on this occasion though.
