I am a young person who succeeded (ish; I am still poor, but on a reasonable trajectory) in the labour market.
Many of my friends did not. They are not lazy. They are not useless. They are simply not a good match for the desires of the capitalist machine at the present time.
They do not deserve to be ground into dust. They have immense value to give to the world if given half a chance.
This effective slavery will grind down their morale and turn them against society even further.
Please, see through this 'deserving' nonsense. This is simply a way for the capitalist class to devalue labour. They own all of the land, they own all of the raw materials. You cannot opt out of this; your choice is to work for a pittance (my basic household bills cost more than this), to leave your family behind, or to die.
This isn't about being 'owed a living'. This is about taking away the means of sustenance and renting them back to people.
