They think that any resource required for life should not be bought and paid for. Which I agree with to some extent.

But have this same attitude about "you can do whatever you want" in a survival situation, Im leaving your ass to starve if you don't contribute and are capable of doing so.

IMO there is a difference between "being able to explore professions and skills you want" and "being a complete drag on society who contributes nothing." and some of that nuance gets lost in posts like this IMO.
