It's absolutely wild that these anti work types actually believe that food just magically spawns in your fridge.

Electricity? Magic lightning from a wall socket! You don't have to pay for anything, you don't have to work, nobody has to do anything productive, everything just magically gets done because we live in heaven and God provides plentiful. Break a bone? You don't need hospitals where humans have to gasp work as a doctor and be all responsible and shit, that just heals with magic!

We don't need anyone to do real jobs, we don't need anyone to be responsible or care, we don't need anyone to even try, because in this awesome world everything is resolved automatically with magic!

Get your collective heads out of your asses

Survival is not easy no matter how you slice it. Without modern technology our life spans would be 30-50 years old if that. Today is the much easier to survive than back in the early settler days. People just don’t realize how great we have it compared to our ancestors. I get that some have it harder than others in today’s society. They will never have it as hard as 1600s living conditions.
