I don't think you even have to go to the extreme of compelling someone to do something through the legal system. I can use money to get someone to clean my house or walk my dog - they don't have to do it, but the fact that I have money does give me the power to get them to do what I want.

Can you compel someone to walk your dog because you have enough money to pay someone to do it, or are they choosing to do it to earn some money?

i mean... if people don't get money they die so....

[bpt3]

So if they want to live, they are compelled to do some sort of work somewhere at some point, which is the nature of the human condition (along with all other living beings).

That doesn't mean you can force them to work for you specifically because you have the amount of money you deem sufficient for a specific task.

It feels like a lot of people have forgotten that this is how nature works, not that all of your needs are the responsibility of everyone around you.

You’re incorrect that being compelled to do work in order to survive is the nature of the human condition and all other living beings.

There is nothing natural about being compelled to work to live It is an artificial and constructed state.

It’s why there are people who have NEVR had to work to live and never will have to.

No, I am not wrong. A person in isolation must work to survive. If they don't, they will die of starvation, thirst, or exposure.

I will never understand why people believe that should change when a person lives around others.

Absolutely--This was just an example that came to mind in the moment.
