The fact that the majority of us are essentially forced to participate in the capitalist market means that we will always be at the mercy of greasy, compliant, ass-sucking 'bosses.'
We don't have any freedom with work unless we have the freedom not to work.
What are you talking about? We have the freedom to not work and die cold and hungry in the streets just like the founding fathers intended!
Capitalism is slavery with extra steps.
We don't have that freedom either. We have the freedom to be constantly harassed or imprisoned for not having a paid residence.
Like gdog said, no, you don't actually. Being homeless is illegal in a ton of places.
Survival takes effort, whether that means working in an office or in a hunter gatherer tribe
