(3,496 posts)since when is it the Government's responsibility to force people back into the workforce?!? It's like the only point in living is to work and if you don't want to participate in the corporate rat race the Government needs to sh-t on you, ridicule you and starve you to death.
I watch a fair amount of reality TV following folks who literally live on the edge of society (last Alaskans for example). "Working" to them is just earning enough to pay for food and rudimentary shelter. They prefer to have their freedom; choosing when to wake up, where to go and how to spend their waking hours. In some respects I envy the folks who've turned their back on "civilization" and live their lives on their own terms (and are willing to sacrifice to live their life style and suffer the consequences).
Funny how the "freedom from Government" types are willing to utilize it to force others to conform to some dystopian vision they think is heaven (and never see the irony in their position).
