I guess you’re right. You can say it makes me an asshole if you want, but I don’t think that person deserves the same credit or wealth as a person who got an education and used it to work full time in a specialized field.
I do not see that as a weird or unjust opinion.
It’s not a weird opinion. It is what we have been conditioned to think. Capitalism tells us that our worth is linked to our work.
It’s taken me a long time, but I no longer feel that the purpose of life is to be “productive” but rather to be happy. If you are curious about what other assumptions about the world and how things “have to be” I’d suggest reading “the one dimensional man” by Marcuse.
