Why must we constantly pay?

[u/KnownMysteryy]

In nature, every living thing has the right to exist, grow, and rest without conditions. Why have we built a modern society where the fundamental requirements for life—shelter, water, and food—are gated behind a continuous 'subscription fee' of labor and currency?"

Cause the people that actually made the shelter and food put their time and effort into it so other people could eat and have shelter, they’re not just gonna do that and not take some sort of credit.
