What you fail to consider is that there are a lot of people who simply would rather sit around and do drugs and watch TV than do any job that they are qualified for. They also lack the motivation to want to acquire new skills that would allow them to get a job that is more interesting to them. My mother was one of these people and that's what she did. She eventually used her depression which was caused by her drug addiction to get on to social security disability. She spent her entire adult life living in group homes where all the other residents were also on social security disability and when I would hang out there you could guarantee there was going to be drugs and beer everywhere as the cable TV played. The part of West Virginia where her family was and I would spend my summers was filled with people who had a way of life of living on the "draw". People like yourself who come from culturally functional backgrounds simply have no reference point to understand the other cultural dysfunction that people like my mother and her friends exhibited. She overdosed on oxycontin in 2015 and from the years 1985 to then she never worked a single job or paid a single bit of taxes and she never wanted to. I understand that I am simply spouting an anecdote here, but no matter where my mom lives she always had roommates that were just like her. There's an entire subculture of people that do this.
