Put your intellectual diaper back on, cause you're leaking BS again.
I can go for a day or so without sleep--as long as I'm exerting myself physically. If all I do is sit around thinking, I'll fall right off. Thinking doesn't provide enough exertion, enough work, to keep me going.
Exactaincorrecto. They will start seeking employement as soon as the pantry runs low.
I think everyone complains about how much they pay in taxes, and the rich, who pay so much more than the average (in absolute and relative terms) have far more rights to do so than the average Joe or Josephine does.
No, they won't. Because they're lazy and have a sense of entitlement.
They want to be paid a lot of money for doing very little--do you know anyone who will work for $5 an hour?
Now Days whe the federa governaqmnt passes a entitlement with teh budget rules the almost always pass mandets in the same bill. Bond rating are not just determined by present cost but future liabilties.The healcarere bill jus passed is a example. Toi keep cost down to the federal govenramnt it raises the income level for medicaid and dumps alot of peope into it. Medicad is a shared cost between staes and federal governments.After 2020 the bill dumps a huge amount of cost o the states. That measn increrasing taxes and likely lower bond ratings for many sates because the ratings are based not just on presnt by futre fixed cost by states and even loacl government. Some sates are already i trouble and this will meAan alot of cuts and raisng of state taxes and fees. Otherwise the interest rate on bonds will skyrocket on need project like mentioned. California has felt the efects of this and is really feeling it in the present crisis.The closer to the edge you are the faster you fall in such circumstances.

This is idiocy. People saying intellectual work isn't work. So an author who writes a book isn't working. Of course he is. His brain is working, as well as his hands. When I sit in the hot tub at home and envision my next marketing campaign, including merchandise, targeted customer base, type of compaign/discount if applicable, I am working. When a Radiologist MD looks at an Xray or MRI or other imaging results, looking for signs of disease, he is working.

I think most will work to stay alive, sense of entitlement notwithstanding. However, some would rather die than work, and I say let 'em die.
Do I personally know anyone who will work for $5.00per hour? Not personally, no. Most of the people I know work in the $40.00 per hour range, minimum, with me in my day job at just short of $50.00/hour. My biz brings in a whole lot more, though, and when you are in business, counting your hours is something you don't usually do.

It is idiotic to thing otherwise.
Not really. Work is ...work. Thinking--isn't. Unless it actually pains you to have to think. Thinking is a leisure activity, because it comes easily to me. Work is when I actually have to exert myself...and is NOT fun. If it was fun or easy, it wouldn't be "work".

So you don't know anyone who would work for $5 an hour--even if that was the only job available to them? They'd rather sit around the house hoping someone will pay them what they THINK they're worth (they're not, by the way).
There are plenty of lazy people everywhere. I work with lazy people and I go to school with lazy people. People are actually happy with passing with barely a C. When I took Anatomy and Physiology a few semester ago there were a few people that said as long as they got a 69.5 they were happy with that. Your going to be a nurse someday and your happy with passing with barely a C? WTH. In nursing school you have to work hard and its a ton of work. You cant sit back and do the bare minimum that doesn't cut it. At my job (Im a waitress) and other waiters cant even do simple things they just stand around chatting or take smoke breaks when they can. Also people come to work late or call in when they dont feel like coming to work like its not a big deal. Its irritating. I think these days people dont have to work as hard as our ancestors did. Technology has made life a lot easier.

Well I work at an independently owned restaurant so things are pretty lax, but I would expect an upscale place to be more strict, at least it was at the last few restaurants I worked at. I don't know why they wont fire people.
