Do you think that if people were paid reasonably, like if they put in good work and actually got paid a base living wage to survive independently, then people and society would be massively reduced of it’s social and mental issues?
I feel as though if I had been able to make money for working hard I would have been able to avoid nearly all my social and mental health issues.
I don’t intend for this to be about universal income or politics or anything like that.
It just seems like society is knowingly creating hell on earth.
Lack of freedom to exist creates a spiral of hell… Imo.
How much of a reduction is “massive”?
Stress is undoubtedly a massive factor in mental illness, but there are others. Genetics plays a huge factor, as does trauma. I suspect lack of community is pretty huge too.
Yeah. I agree with this one. We’re too invested in the current order to seriously consider anything else.
Idk what massive is tbh.
But I think a lot of youth have some form of trauma from watching their parents try to survive.
A ton of “trauma” is indirectly caused by poverty and stress as well. So you might need to wait decades for these effects to really show.
