People would work because they WANT TO
Uh, I have a great job. I get a great salary. And I love my job. I would not work if I didn't have to. Work is work. It is not fun. It is not something people really want to do.

not because they need the income to live.
That is why people have worked since the beginning of time.

Work should be a public service, not a necessity to live.
Funny, I actually think it should be a necessity to live. If you don't contribute to society, why should you get benefits of society?

Believe it or not there would be some citizens who choose to work various jobs and help the society as a whole instead of doing it for personal gain.
there would be some But not enough to allow the country to function. Do you honestly believe this?

Once people change and become less selfish and realize its about the greater good and advancing the human race and progressing our society rather than being self centered and only caring about themselves, yeah, it will work

Isn't this shite fun to do sometimes? Yes, it is trolling, but it DOES spark conversation. More than half of my posts since the election have been troll posts.

So basically there will be no free speech because everything said offends someone or some group.

The idea is that you don't have to work, but you work out of goodwill toward society as a whole rather than having to work to live.
That's the most ridiculous thing I've heard. Under your proposals nobody would have any incentive to work. There wouldn't be enough workers to produce the things the government would be giving out for free, even with imports. This plus the government funding entitlements would cause the US Economy to rapidly collapse.

Maybe someone just wants to provide health care to people out of his heart and generosity instead of doing it to put food on the table
So someone wants to work their arse off for the first 30 years of their life to learn medicine. And yes, regardless of what you say, they would have to work their arse off to learn the required amount of information just so they could kinda provide healthcare out of his heart? I mean lots of docs donate their time, but all their time just because? Or I could do nothing and get everything? Damn, let me thing about this one...
quote:
Maybe there are people out there who will build and fix electrical lines because they want to help people, not line their pockets
Everyone would donate some time. But if they didn't have to work, there wouldn't be enough work being done.
quote:
Maybe there are people out there who want to build homes, out of goodwill and not to provide for their family
Who doesn't want to provide for their families?

Get the idea?
It is a fail. The people who make up doctors and other highly educated people in society do so because they are able to understand delayed gratification. You take away the gratification at the end and they wouldn't do it. Or don't you see this?

Like I said, I know he's trolling (it was obvious from the get-go), but continuing the conversation shows the absurdity of his position. My jimmies remain unrustled.
