That isn't society's responsibility though. That's something that you have to find within yourself. It why religions are so popular in all their forms. As well as other philosophical endevours man has made. It's not a cut and dry or black and white answer.

As far as why work? I guess that is for one to decide where your desire for your needs to be met and your moral compass is, as far as living off someone else.

Then why is it society's business when men quit "life" in mass to lounge around?

Also, when society says having fun is all there is, it bears no responsibility when men say games are fun and they want to do nothing else?

Be yourself, enjoy life, just have fun.
"Ok. Inquit my job. Playing games 20 hours a day"

If men (and women) are quitting "life" in mass it can effect the economy. Granted "in mass" is too general of term to determine the effects it would have on our capitalistic economy. But in large enough numbers it could. And that might be where "society" is coming from.

The rest I can't answer you. I've written this last paragraph like 5 times deleting it because I can't articulate what I want to say. But I think in the end, finding pride and working for yourself and being able to live off someone else with no plague of conscience is just two different mindsets that will probably never see eye to eye.
