Most people get government benefits and don’t need the job. Today, a good investment in the future is to learn how to do something - practical - plumbing, electrical, machining, farming whatever. Something that gets the hand at least a wee bit dirty.
I would agree but we seem to be tending toward the minority lately. The trend is to make a lot of money but do nothing. Not sure of the logic on that but its the trend. LOL, pop culture at its finest.
