    Lots of people feel bad if they're not contributing. Work isn't just something they are forced to do; they'd do it even if there was no such thing as money. Working class take a lot of pride and self-worth from doing what they do. Doing nothing might be wonderful to you, but it makes them feel worthless, like they don't belong and are just living off the backs of others.

        It never fails to amaze me just how much self-professed sympathizers with the working class have a profound lack of understanding what it's like to be working class.
