Not everyone is able to do all those things, I work in Construction but if I could trade full time like OP I certainly would, society doesn't care about those who contribute anymore and OP still does more than most people do. The real problem isn't what OP does to eat the issue is that the system has been in place for over a century and the people in charge like it that way, instead of railing against it and screaming about how "bad" it is OP and many other including myself are trying to look after ourselves and those we care about

Not everyone is able to do all of those things, but everyone is able to do something useful.

And yeah, i agree that it is a core problem that people who play pointless games get rewarded more than people who do real work.
