Why the FUCK do you think you're entitled to get the free labor of bakeries working hard to make bread, farmers farming to create food, and people building technology to make your life easier?
No, you don't have to work. Go live in the forest and farm your own food. Maybe then when a lion attacks you you'll realize the value of modern civilization.
That's true, but the whole point of technology and modern civilization was to make us lazy and somehow people are working even more? Except for like 5 people.
Most people in the west can work less, if they are willing to sacrifice comfort, material goods etc.
Most people can live without teeth and with cancer killing them, while eating cheap ramen for the whole month staring at a wall, sitting naked on the floor, in a house without a roof and walls.
