    Everyone in America has the same luxuries I have in taking or not taking a job. The Constitution and the laws of the united states codify it. You can’t force someone to take a job they don’t want to take. It’s that simple. I have no misconceptions at all. For my theory to be incorrect, you would have to show where people are forced to take employment they do not want to take.

      The rich and the poor are equally free to sleep under a bridge at night.

      Everybody is equally free to turn down a job when they need money for food, housing, medical care and other necessities of basic life.

      I can’t force someone to take a job, but I can starve them until they do. And I can make it illegal for them to acquire food in any way that isn’t engaging with my system of capitalism.
