    That is 100% true in a capitalist society. You are measured by your ability to produce.

    Edit: Apparently this needs some clarification. You are measured by your ability to produce for your owner.

      … or by your ability to steal from others and getting away with it.

        To each one according to their needs, from each one according to their capabilities.

        People would still need to work, we are not abolishing the concept of work, what we want is a distribution of the value produced by the workers for the workers, so, for example, a disabled person wouldn’t have the same working hours of an able-bodied one, or a person that has to provide for a family of 4 wouldn’t earn the same as a person that lives by themselves.

          Oh? Why the family ain’t workin then, eh? Are we now singling out lonely people, eh? Isn’t that lonely guy giving the same from himself as the family guy, ehhh?

          Eh, that’s why capitalism is better, you earn what your work is worth and fuck your excuses. Pull yerself by yer bootstraps and stop complainin’. Now excuse me, need to go motivate the leech granny to stop living off rent and git back to job.

            what about the owning class who does no work yet profits by taking the fruits of your labor by nothing more than saying they own it. Or the land lord who does the same. Capitalism in no way provides you what you earn, the banker did not do more work than the janitor, the Stock broker did not provide society more value than the fry cook.
