I mean, if the world fell apart, I probably would die. I don't grow a lot of food. My bees only make so much honey. I would have to add value to whatever society arises.
I did read the article and the rest of it is just as vapid as the opening paragraphs. I also took note of the website it was on and that the article is from the 1990s.
I'm not being "aggressive." I'm not "butthurt." I think the article makes a lot of bad points. I think it's a terrible argument. Why are you taking this personally? Just because you shared it? Disagreements with the article are not an attack against you personally.
I stand by my original statement: this is a Luxury Belief, a belief that seems rosy for the well off, who do not understand its expense on the working class.
