    I’m more than happy to contribute to benefit the group. I don’t consider enabling freeloaders to be a benefit. If I want to feed someone that sits around not doing anything all day I’ll get a cat.

      Good thing people like me exist that will not only feed the “freeloaders”, but take care of you too when you break your leg.

        A broken leg is a temporary condition. As soon as it’s mended I would be back at it (if not before, I also have computer skills that would not be inhibited by a broken leg). Laziness is a personality issue and they will not overcome it if they just have everything they need handed to them.

          I say ambition, drive, greed, etc are personality issues that cause harm to others and the environment.

          While I’m sure there are a few individuals that would rather sit and die than go get some food, this is not something to actually be concerned with. You watch too much right wing TV telling you there’s a whole class of people that just want to take from you, but what’s actually happening is that this group is being stolen from and what you see as laziness is often just an unwillingness to facilitate being stolen from.
