      my stance is exactly the opposite: idle hands do the devil's work, and most people who have "50 hour per week" jobs actually work 15-20 hours per week (max) ...and spend the rest of that "at work" time virtue signally on social mediahttps://twitter.com/Empty_America/status/1503386359276478464 …

      It is quite plausible that full time/full year employment eventually causes serious mental illness in most subjects. This hypothesis would fit the observed evidence very well. https://twitter.com/PaulCrenstorm/status/1503051559416078341 …

      2/ I suggest that we look at what unemployed people do with their time to evaluate this hypothesishttps://twitter.com/bdmarotta/status/1503388280951300097 …

      It sounds like the 9-5 routine forces idleness, whereas if those people were *actually* free during that time, they'd probably do something useful - hobbies, exercise, relationships, etc.

      I quickly gave up delivering hot meals to “needy families” after taking food to a family of 5 adults in their pjs watching TV in the afternoon - and such was the norm, not a one-off case.

      4/ Some folks say that if we destroy the entire "social safety net", people will be reduced to begging in the streets. I respond "yes ... and most of those cut off from free cash would prefer to work than beg, so...win, win"

      Back in the day I volunteered a LOT with my church to provide labor or food to needy individuals or families. Mowing the lawn for a shut-in senior citizen was rewarding. But occasionally I'd step into a house and think "hold the phone, this place is nicer than where *I* live."

      wife got burned by this too helping to do yardwork for "needy" families...and ended up working for free for some upper middle class person who was snippy that stuff wasn't being done perfectly to her liking

          Yep. When someone exudes a sense of *entitlement* rather than *gratitude* when you show them charity it puts me off, irrespective of that person's actual level of need.
