honestly, life was never free. you've always had to work in order to be alive.

unfortunatally it seems people are tryin' to make it where you don't need to work to live.

I think you’re looking at it the wrong way. You’re right about how living always required work. But living now revolves around currency and materialistic means.

I'm sorry, "Unfortunately"? What could be unfortunate about making it possible for people to live without having to work?

[removed]

the fact that thought would even cross your mind explains enough about you as a person.

which you have to work in some form or another.

there really isn't any other way to look at it.

Well, no, I never said anything about not working. And that's the part I'm agreeing on you with. Humans have and forever will have to work.

But the point being is that we now work monetarily. We work for A literal physical substance that's now a necessity. We Need to it to have shelter, we need it to obtain food, we need it to obtain water etc..

But all of these human necessities are divinely free. You can go hunt your own food, you can go drink from a river, you can go and build your own shelter. And although living in a society gives convenience. Everything is ultimately free.

yeah, i assumed improperly. i apologise for that specific error.
