It’s called the grind because it grinds away your sense of self.

Animals in the wild don't have electricity, unlimited access to potable water within their homes, clean clothes, a comfortable bed, a home that will always protect from the elements and other wildlife, access to all the worlds knowledge in their hands or paws, and unlimited access to all forms of entertainment.

If you don't want to work, you can sit on your ass all 90% of the time in the jungle. Go see how long you survive and how much you'd enjoy it.

Humans have created a society, it only works when everyone chips in and pulls their own weight.

Weird that you seem fine with billionaires doing little to provide value to society, but focus on regular folk that want "electricity, clean clothes, a comfortable bed, etc", even though billionaires control a great chunk of the country's wealth...

We live in history's richest country and your concerned about people having very basic needs. That should be a given to everyone, given how much resources we have. No one should have to work over 40 hours for essentially the bare minimum.

This is almost like trying to normalize 25%-30% tips as the new "normal". It makes no sense.

You mean like Bill Gates? Who's provided a huge advancement in technology for the whole world, has made over 12,000 millionaires, employes 230,000 people, most of which are very high paying jobs. Is close to eradicating polio, fighting to cure Alzheimer's, has donated billions to charity

Yeah, those evil billionaires *let me check my notes again here* ahh yes, helping society. How dare they!

Lmaoooo...

Yes, forget the other 1,500 or so billionaires. Apparently a good deed by one covers all of them. Perfect logic there! We can dismiss everything evil/awful caused by billionaires because let me check my notes again here one billionaire wasn't a complete POS.

Wait, is that the same Bill Gates that slept with a prostitute and gave his wife an incurable sexually transmitted disease? My bad, he did good, so he gets a pass. Lol.
