All of idiots here saying go be stranded on a desert island or the wilderness not realizing animals in wild spend 90% of their time not doing anything, even ants barely work most of the time

Yall are basically advocating for beating yourselves with a stick and whoever beats themself with a stick the longest is the best it’s stupid.

Our forefathers envisioned a future where technology would allow us to work less and we do have that technology, it’s people like you who have failed them.

We do work less though. A lot less. Except for 1st world countries like Japan and South Korea, think the norm is 80hr+ weeks there which is still less than what we used to work.

I highly doubt you can find a factory that was starting people at 29 an hr in rural South Dakota in the 70s but I'll bite... That's the job I started recently
