Without ambition and drive people would still be living in caves. You think someone’s going to learn science or medicine without ambition or drive?
I haven’t watched any significant amount of TV in 12 years let alone news channels. I don’t need some jabbering moron with an agenda to tell me how I should feel about things I can observe with my own eyes. I wasn’t even initially talking about people receiving government assistance, I was talking about my coworkers I’ve had at various jobs. It’s always a situation where the few are carrying the many and whatever their reason for being lazy, the outcome is more work and problems and stress for their fellow workers. It’s selfish as fuck. I’m not exactly the pinnacle of mental health myself but I power through it when necessary so I don’t create problems for others.
