    The issue is that people are pretty unwilling to be homeless or starve if there’s an alternative (no matter how terrible).

    Maybe I’m misunderstanding you but I’ve been homeless before and I don’t think it’s an “issue” that I don’t want to go back to that.

      It’s not an issue, that’s just an effect of the sarcastic phrasing. There’s kind of an embedded notion within the original thought that people actually do this by choice. I think most work in dictatorial companies because there’s really no other choice except destitution.

        Thanks, that’s what I figured since my experience has been have a job or be homeless and it really is my ass onto the street as soon as there is only small unemployment checks.

      Working is better than being homeless for most people. Because you can, doesnt mean everyone can.
