Giving people food, money etc, gives people incentives to not bother working. Well yeah, but according to this kind of economistic thinking, paying a guy $40/hour instead of $20/hour encourages him to work half as many hours. Giving people anything for any reason, including as trade/payment, can always be construed as encouraging less work-ethic. And likewise, withholding anything or inflicting any suffering or punishment can always be construed as encouraging work-ethic. |
