Why would I work for a society that's willing to let me be homeless?

How is food water and shelter a life of luxury? Those are humans needs. Not luxury. I made it clear in my posts I don't believe anyone deserves anything other than food, water and shelter.

I don't believe any job can compensate for time and I don't believe no one has to contribute anything if they want more than the basic human requirements for life.

I believe that everyone has the right to the bare minimum of existence, nothing more. I've seen other countries and I don't think using them is a good argument. They have it worse but that doesn't mean working for 40 years is a good thing in anyway.

Like I said I believe everyone has value regardless of what they are able to do for me, or society. I believe that treating people as though they have value by default would in turn make people less lazy and actually want to give back. Forcing people to work by threatening them with starvation and calling them names is anti human.

You're right though this conversation is going no where. We have a fundamental disagreement about what is and is not inhumane.
