    I don’t know about you, but I don’t absolutely require job for my life. I do require nutrients and shelter though…

      Uh huh, so your going to grow and hunt your own nutrients then I guess? Build your own shelter?

      I guess you could do all that if you had the money to buy the required land for it, but then again if you had that kind of money you didn’t need a job in the first place.

        Do you really not see the difference between food/shelter, things that you WILL die without, and employment?

        The only reason you need the latter for the former (and I mean, no you don’t but whatever) is because of how society is set up.

        Your body doesn’t shut down if you don’t clock in to your job for X days.

          Well it kind of does because if I don’t have a job then I don’t get money, And I need that to buy things like food and shelter. And yes that’s because of the way society is set up but since it’s the way every single society on Earth is set up, I think we have a problem.

          There has never been a culture on Earth at any point in history that didn’t have some version of money.

      All these job people are just barking up the wrong tree. Oh no my 9-5 is gone instead of oh wow now we collectively have less work load and should focus on resource redistribution.
