In your world, they don’t have to better themselves because their basic needs are provided for when they work ANY job. But yet you are saying that they will better themselves anyway? Sorry, not buying it.
You ever heard of a guy named Mazlow??? Because I am sure once a person can pay for food, utilities, and a car - that they might desire a few other things in life. I bet you did, personally. I bet when you got to a position in life where you could pay the bare necessities, that you did not stop. Am I right???
LOL. 99% of people want the best life has to offer. Few achieve it. My contention is if the MW did in fact pay enough for basic needs that would not be enough for 99% of the population. They would still get evacuated and still strive for more. Then again I haven't given up on the American people like the cynical bastard you appear to be.
