Don't equivocate on the word "force". If you get the government to make people do things, that's force. If people aren't giving you money they are not "forcing" you to work for your money.
- manicdee 10y agoIs my landlord forcing me to work for money by threatening to evict me for not paying rent? Is my grocer forcing me to work for money when they demand payment for the food I want to eat?
