Yes and no.
I would argue that being a productive citizen that has much to give to others (kindness, companionship, food, money, etc.) is the fundamental mark of adulthood. I am blessed to live/work in a world where I can do that very well without horrendous scrambling, due to a successful and enlightened employer.
If such is a good thing, is not offering good employment under highly civilized working conditions to many adults an achievement worth great accolades?
