You are, from every policy I've ever seen you espouse, a right winger.
Too many participation trophies.
I'm judging your position by your posts. If you don't like my assessment then it's more your problem than mine.
Oh wow, your unique and insightful comment is so totally different than anything I've ever heard before! You get a PoFo participation trophy!
You don't say! It's a good thing I didn't say people would just march into a coal mine under their own volition. It's nice when you can put words in my mouth and construe my saying that work has intrinsic value to people as saying that all work has the same intrinsic value to all people.
People get paid to do that actually. I should note that I never said that it was a job, I said it was work.

This is what I am saying: People want all sorts of things and most of those things they want to get from someone else. That someone else will want something in return, not necessarily money but money is by definition that which is most agreeable as a reward (well for sane people anyway) for reason of its near universal exchangability.

vidence that a particular person is willing to spend a massive amount of time playing video games is not evidence that you can trick me or very many other people into digging coal, data entry, changing the rubber underwear of incontinent old people, laying bricks or editing TV footage for no tangible reward.

TL;DR - Playing video games is not a job.

My dream is a hemispheric common market, with open trade and open borders.
