    I get that, but I’m talking about the headline being written weird. Everyone works because they need their paycheck to pay their bills, otherwise they wouldn’t work.

      The point is not everyone needs their next pay check to pay the bills. They could be fired today, need a couple months to find a job, and have enough to survive in between.

        Obviously I’m speaking in broad generalizations here, I know even billionaires ‘work’ and shit, but they’re not 1/3 of the population. shrug
