I meant more that as soon as you leave the workforce as a young man society will frame you as useless, which in turn leads to poor self image and depression, which then leads to a life of quick fix feel good activities like getting high and jerking off for days at a time.

If we decouple workplace productivity and social validity then people who leave the workforce can find other meaningful ventures in their lives without shame.

Can you give some examples of what those ventures might be?

How will these people be supported?
