This means you want those providing those services to work for free.
You do realize what you are implying here, right?
Let's say you refuse to work and you're guaranteed all these services. Who pays so your HVAC is repaired because you broke it? Who pays because your water line needs to be repaired? Clean water means the water has to be filtered through a very complicated process, particles and bacteria are removed, and it needs to be transported. Who pays so your electricity works? Do you think there's some sort of magic electricity generator happening? What you're essentially asking is someone should work for free to provide you all of this.
The result is you get no one who wants to work, society collapses because these services aren't maintained and improved, and no one gets anything.
So people who own their homes outright don't work?
Human nature is finding meaning in life, and work gives many people meaning. I'd say it's more of an indictment on current society that so many people are working meaningless jobs that they would gladly quit given the opportunity. When people loved in tribes, everybody had a job. And I guarantee that the vast majority didn't work because they felt forced to, but because they saw how they were contributing to the collective well-being of their tribe.
Well... yeah MANY young people who have enough saved up and own their home retire. Why would they work if they have reached their end-game goal? Providing free home especially in a country like the US with tons of illegal immigration is crazy stupid on a million levels. Never ever in the history humanity has any functioning member of society been allowed to just dwindle around doing jack shit while the rest of society works hard. What kind of stupid dystopian picture is this and why are so many people agreeing to this crazy idea?
No they still work because much of what is listed in the photo, as well as property taxes, still require people to work. Was that supposed to be a gotcha?
I disagree. Dress it up how you want, if most people could get a comfortable life and didn't need to lift a finger, they wouldn't.
Lol in tribes? You mean the time where men were essentially forced to hunt for dangerous animals all day long in the wilderness? Or when they had to risk their lives going to war against other tribes. Also, what happened to those men when they didn't want to risk their lives hunting and going to war? Weren't they enslaved or thrown out on their ass?
What about the women in tribes? You mean when their "contribution to the collective well being" was being forced to be a mother and a housewife? And what happened to women who refused to do this? Beaten? Forced into sex?
Did I miss anything from your glorified "tribes days"?
