It's not like any of this is going to come to fruition in America, no matter how painfully necessary it will be. "No choice in the matter" doesn't mean a sack of donut holes to the Protestant Work Ethic-batty neolibs in both parties who would never stand for not punishing someone who doesn't work in the most Draconian of ways. They run our government at the behest of those who hold all the cards. Current MBAs that run our institutions were taught the Martin Feldstein way of economics; Feldstein was a Reagan and Bush "adviser" who pitches Darwinist counterproductivity designed to benefit the wealthy first, foremost and ONLY.
