> Do Something You Hate If You Have To, Otherwise You'll Starve;
You make a great point here... as I lift the pistol to my mouth.
The illusion of desperate survival is so pervasive it spans all class lines. Most people would consider trading modern convenience for a little labor or discomfort(say, washing dishes manually, or lawn care) to be a fate equal to desperate poverty.
This entitlement is truly fear, and it motivates otherwise capable entrepreneurs into a life of bland wage slavery. When starvation is invoked as a warning here, it is truthfully in regard to modern privilege. A warning that the service and maintenance of modern life will fall on the misguided consumer. If they should choose to be self sufficient on small income, they will have to learn how. A fate apparently worse than starvation. Fear motivates this attitude.
