What's going to be more successful: forcing millions of other humans to pay more for a less convenient service than the alternative or just learning a different way to make a living? > I can't see a doctor without a job. I wasn't aware doctors ran employment checks before seeing patients. I haven't been to the doctor in a long time, though. > I can't borrow money without a job. Uh, yeah? People who lend you money like to see that you have some means of paying it back. How is that relevant? > I can't smoke grass Depends on the job, but that is a legal issue. I doubt most employers would care if the law didn't force them to. > The "adapt or die" philosophy is not justified. This is not a philosophy, it's a statement of the reality of the situation.
