It's not capitalism that forces people to work or starve to death. It's
*reality* that forces us to work or starve to death. In case you forgot,
your body needs food to live, and food takes work to produce. Capitalism
doesn't force you to buy goods and services; it just provides an
alternative to producing everything yourself.
