Humans are meant to be moving and switching activities throughout the day, getting a certain amount of natural light and a lot more sleep than we get. We are still analog biological beings, not robots, yet. But our tech lords have plans for us.
If you think that's bad just wait until the CCP owns us.

In a fully-developed post-industrial society, people who don't want to work, and make no effort to understand the process of basic human industry probably can be sustained on a modest level without too much sacrifice by the rest of us.

Conservatives simply shun and ignore them; Left-leaners seek to form a coalition around them.

In return for their faux security, they should have no voice in the process of governance; participatory democracy was intended for most, but not for all.

Of course, this is precisely why most of the point-grunt-and-slobber element vote Democratic.

No. If they don't work to help create those things, or create something they can trade for them, they won't get them. And that's not because somebody decided it should be that way. It was that way when the first living beings crawled out of the mud. If they don't work to support themselves, that just means someone else has to work doubly hard to support them as well.

If you don't want to work, put out effort, to survive, You'll save everybody, including yourself, a lot of trouble in the long run.

Just because you don't want to work to survive, doesn't mean there's some way to survive without work. Your only alternative is to not survive.

Which one do you choose?

This sums the question up well.
