Do you think that if people were paid reasonably, like if they put in good work and actually got paid a base living wage to survive independently, then people and society would be massively reduced of it’s social and mental issues?

I feel as though if I had been able to make money for working hard I would have been able to avoid nearly all my social and mental health issues.

I don’t intend for this to be about universal income or politics or anything like that.

It just seems like society is knowingly creating hell on earth.

Lack of freedom to exist creates a spiral of hell… Imo.

    It certainly would help. Unfortunately there are tons of variables that can lead to mental health issues beyond one’s basic needs being met.

      Yeah I just feel like it would help a lot and save a lot of life from existing pointlessly. I wish the current world was a place where people could play their part. There’s too many people losing time and life because the full spectrum of humanity is denied. So much Good goes unmanifested.
