    Yeah. Most that I’ve met work hard to improve their lot, even the few I know who were born rich enough that they don’t have to. Just because you’d be a lazy sack of shit if you could get away with it doesn’t mean everyone else would.

      I mean, the fact we have the modern world at all is evidence motivation doesn’t stop just because basic needs are met.

      If that were all the human drive had in it, that is where we would be.
