It’s telling how the old quote includes “for wages”
Our society has been dragged so far right that we harldy discuss abolition of the wage system these days.
It’s not an issue about working. Its an issue about working for wages (as opposed to workers owning the means of production and distributing the profits democratically and equally)
Any idea on any of these sources? It’d be great to be able to point to actual articles dating back more than a century when having a conversation/debate/argument about the “nobody wants to work” narrative
Thanks! Wow Snopes is thorough!

Yeah, just wanted to say this. In almost all experiments with Universal Basic Income it turns out people don’t wanna scroll Tiktok 24/7 or whatever. Most people want to do thinks that we would call “work”. We just don’t wanna do them in this capitalist hellscape full of meaningless bullshit jobs.
