It's nothing like that.

Expecting strangers to work to support you and, as expected, when they refuse which will require you to support yourself, that inst the same as condemning you to slavery. Trying to force strangers to work to support you would be the same as enslaving them.

Except the rich are maybe 20% of the electorate, the 80% is more responsible for the system. That's you.
