I've asked a lot of people about the potential future of not having to spend 2/3 of our life working to be able to feed ourselves and have a roof, and I'm afraid so many people are what I could best describe as being "institutionalized" (to borrow a term from The Shawshank Redemption) that they can't even envision such life, to the point that they instantly start defending the current status quo, the 9-5 grind.

It's mind boggling to me how some people can't see that getting 2/3 of life back to do with as you please would be .. absolutely amazing.
