      If I had my expenses covered I’d still do some kind of work. Some things I just enjoy doing.

          Some people want(need?) control in a different sense than others, I don’t think you can stamp out capitalism, at least in a micro sense. If you provided people with everything they could possibly ever need, some would still hustle for more. Some people just don’t understand hobbies, its certainly gotten much worse as current culture seems to revere the attitude, but I think its also just an innate trend that will always exist in a subset of the population.

          There is a word for that… greed. Greedy people don’t have hobbies, they explore opportunities.
