    Isn’t that a good thing, though? We’re not all being worked to death?

    No, it’s not a good thing. You’re making a false dichotomy. Reality should ideally fall somewhere in between.

        Because people should be productive members of society? Is that a real question?

          Why should people be productive members of society if they don’t want to be? Do you really think they’ll do a good job if they don’t want to be doing it?

            Why should people be productive members of society if they don’t want to be?

            Are you actually a toddler? How do you expect society to function if no one puts in the effort to make that happen?

            Do you really think they’ll do a good job if they don’t want to be doing it?

            Nobody wants to do work but ultimately you have to do things for other people so that you can have things done for you.

              I do not respond substantively to posts with insults and if there is a second insult, you will be blocked. This is not Reddit and I will not tolerate that behavior.
