Earning a living implies that you’re not using passive income to mooch off people. It’s contrasted to land lords and nobility who were simply entitled to money.
I mean…ya…but this “quote” doesn’t appear to me to be talking about the wealthy…but rather addressing the notion that poor people and the unemployed have no value if they don’t have employment/can’t find better employment.
Word smiths decided that “earning a living” implies anything other than you work for you’re money. And I 100% support caring for anything who cannot work. But i’m not desperate enough for “likes” that i’ll read into something that isn’t there
