    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.
