The sad thing is that I DO want to work. I WANT to go study and become a biologist and hopefully teach it someday. But, because of this fucked up system, have to do what can afford to pay rent instead of what I have been dreaming of since I was a kid.
That's the lie of capitalism: "you can be anything you want! Just as long as what you want can be easily monetized and turned into a product, otherwise you're welcome to die in a ditch you leech."
Socialism requires production just as much as capitalism, and absolutely requires people to work to their ability.
Well no duh, but it's not like the context in which that production happens – so eg. the status of the workers in relation to the "organization" doing the producing, or let alone how unemployement is dealt with – is the same.
Yes but you can imagine the exact same situation of someone wanting work a different job but due to need in their area they can't.
