Yeah, people don't want to work when they make crap wages, don't get any real time off (maybe not even paid).. don't get paid if they are sick, can't enjoy having a kid because they can't even afford it.. and worry about breaking the bank for every little medical thing. worry about having to stick at a shitty job because "it has benefits"

Healthcare for all that has 0 to do with employers and is near "free".. guaranteed time off, sick leave, maternity leave, and real assistance on early childcare (as in nearly free nurserys etc) would fix like 90% of the US's problems when we talk about things like "people don't want to work".

But this will never happen so where we are.
