This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

You’ve set up a scenario where one person no longer has to work and if they didn’t then why would they continue contributing to a company they get nothing from. Your scenario is disingenuous. Instead imagine a world where no one is paid. How many of those people would work doing what they are now vs stop working entirely. That’s the scenario where “people don’t want to work” truly matters.
