      Some of them yes others may not have the intellectual/mental capability or physical issues that prevent it as well. Most people who want and work to get out of poverty will get to the lower middle class which is a better life than 99% of humans have ever had.

          Uh yes it was?

          “You think 150 million people in this country are just too lazy to make ends meet?”

          To which I replied yes with some caveats as your statement is too broad and meant to steer a conversation into a specific direction without addressing other issues that do a disservice to mentally disabled or handicapped people that are perceived as being lazy when they typically are harder working in my experience.

        Laziness is the natural way that mammals live. Our ancestors chilled in trees most of the time, but we expect modern humans to work at least 40 hours a week

          Perhaps while viewed through a limited scope.

          But it’s also the precursor for innovation, and the drive behind automation. Without it we’d still be plowing fields by hand for a significantly smaller yield.
