You're correct that as young people we should spend more time to be around family, learn, grow, etc as we mature into adults. But in Zogworld if you're not wageslaving, you're a piece of shit. Even super poor people who NEED and use welfare services always beat themselves up or male qualifying statements to assure others they're not lazy because there's a deep embedded shame in American culture over accepting help from others. Even elevating yourself professionally to where you don't have to bust your ass as much is done with a bashful and sheepish attitude. That's why Americans are so proud of being slaves, we think that the ultimate good citizen and good person is someone who works 80+ a week from 18 to the grave.
