What if you have to dig holes and fill them back in to get the money?
replyAnd some more people can do the useless work of tracking who filled and dug how many holes.
if you oversimplify things, you lose the point. I moved houses. I took all of my stuff from my old house, moved it into a new house. Later, I moved all of that stuff back out of that house when I moved out of that one. Was moving my stuff into that house pointless, then? I could have just skipped a step and put it all in storage and then just not had any furniture for the entire time and saved money. In fact, if you don't eat anything, you'll save tons of money!
replyWhy is it useless to track who dug which hole?
I agree with you about magic money. Frequently downvoted when I put it forward but by and large I think that the human psyche needs to have a daily sense of having "accomplished something".
replyOtherwise I suspect many of us will (reluctantly) drift off into lives that center around drinking alcohol, playing video games…
I have a decent job, get paid an acceptable amount, and at the end of the day I never get the feeling that I've "accomplished something".
replyI'm extremely jealous of anyone who feels a sense of reward from their job.

reply> People need to do something in order to recieve money
replyWhy?
What purpose does this serve?
Why should people have to prove their worthiness to be allowed to continue living?
Because I ain't giving away my money to freeloaders.
