    The idea that if you’re not “skilled” then you should starve never made sense to me. It’s all capitalistic bullshit all these rich assholes created to justify their bullshit and to keep us fighting each other. How is anyone ok with others struggling through life?

      I respect hard work more than anything else. I hate to see someone working their butt off via overtime, multiple jobs, etc and still struggling to get by. Hard work should pay off even without a highly developed skillset

        Hard work should pay off, but it shouldn’t be necessary to work that hard just to survive

        Handballing might not take any skill but the work I’ve seen people put into it, they deserve to be payed well
