The issue with free food, free Healthcare, free education is that SOMEONE has to make that happen for you. Someone has to take time out of their day to teach you, to prepare your food safely, to give you adequate care to stay healthy. That's labor and their labor cannot be unrewarded while you do nothing in return. If people were fully independent and killed, cooked, grew, and prepped their own food. If they taught and learned from each other. If they simply tried to be medically sound to keep themselves healthy. But all of that was what humans did at the beginning and we barely made it to 30 years old. The problem can only leave if all needs are met by outside forces that take care of all your needs without costing people anything. Future earth with automated machines can make this a reality, as long as the machines are self reparing and such.
Exactly, and we also know that the bums class who refuse to work will eventually become restless and clamore for better and better free stuff. Case in point a Hotel in my neck of the woods in NYC, a top of the line place took in migrants under the govt dime. They were set to be moved after a couple months to a new facility. They became angry and combative because they had no choice in the FREE stuff or shelters they were given. They even complained about the food,free phones and medical treatment and this was in the span of a couple of months. Imagine worldwide billions of entitled people all clamoring for better,better,better without working for it.
The issue is labour efficiency is going mainly towards the uber wealthy. We’ve tripled productivity and barely improved working class living conditions
@@Karlswebb that's a symptom of early change. That's how culture works in general. It takes many years, sometimes hundreds before benefits of the wealthy become basics of the workforce. That's society as a whole. The best quality products and access to advancements will always stay with the wealthy. But then in 10 years, maybe 20, those advancements are more readily available and the wealthy have the next upgrades. So on and so forth until eventually the process results in the previously mentioned setup. Of course the rich and powerful will always have the better hand to play, but that's life.
The problem would also be that if all of life's problems were solved for free, people would no longer want to do anything for the planet, causing it to fall into pieces sooner. Try hard, change, work hard, leave your mark on the world... after that you will have the right to eat and live.
Cuz no one is going to solve life's problems so you don't have to do anything on your own. If you want an easy path there is one 8 feet below a tombstone.
I totally agree that basic survival necessities should be free. People act like that would be some kind of dystopia, but the market for luxury homes, food, medical care, etc. isn't going to go away. It's just, no one will be dying from lack of the basic survival necessities, and that'll probably lower the price of the luxury items because fewer people would be competing for them.
@@sergioguerrero9433 I've never met you but I'm willing to bet you don't regularly take all the pennies from a penny tray. I'll also bet that you don't exclusively use restaurant napkins to avoid buying paper towels. When resources are easily available, the hoarding instinct dies out and more stuff just means more stuff to be responsible for
2:36 Arabian guy was nervous because hardly speaking dinosaurs died and after millions of years became OIL. He is literally pumping out of the ground liquid dead dinasaurs and turns them into fuel. Of course he is nervous!
Although it should be noted that dinosaurs aren't the only biological source of fuel. Plant matter breaks down into oil as well - even the trees growing today will some day become crude oil. So honestly, today's crude oil has more ancient plants in it than it does dinosaurs.
Change, Make an effort, Work hard, Leave your mark on the world... After doing that, you will have the right to have food, water, healthcare, everything.
"No one is going to solve life's problems so you don't have to do anything on your own. If you want an easy path there is one 8 feet below a tombstone." - S. A.
4:50 "why should we have to pay for that?" because someone has to bottle the water, filter it, make sure it's safe to consume. these things take someone who has to get it done, even if it's an automated process, someone has to ensure the system stays up to date, passes inspection. i would love a free society but with free, comes entitlement and no one should be entitled to more water or more food than someone else. someone has to grow the food. "what if the food is already provided?" someone has to serve it and dispense it to be retrieved from the consumers. think of the rick and morty episode with the miniverse. "thats just slavery with extra steps" lmfaooo the idea sounds nice but our system works because others put in more work them some, if not most, so they get the biggest benefit. people at the bottom shouldnt complain for their inadequacies/ short comings when they are just as able to work as hard as the next person. the next person has a purpose for why they do what they do. be the best you that you can be and the rewards will come. dont expect it, just work hard and know it will come. this is why Goku will always be stronger than Vegeta. He works hard for the benefit of working hard, not to compare to others like Vegeta. So in the end, we cannot have a society where everything is free because someone has to work to get the food, water, etc. Everyone does their part, when everything is free, people can get extra as much as they want, which leaves less for the next person, which then defeats the purpose of everything being free if everyone cannot have
0:55 Dude, do you understand that this was Kthulhu like monster from the opening? We were looking for him for years and then Rick faced him he just scared this monster with som e water. That was low
4:08 Yeah I fully agree with that you're saying because at the end of the day, none of us were asked to be born. When you deep it, it's really cruel tbh.
the issue with free food, water, and housing is that you also need to ask yourself: are you willing to grow the food, sanitize the water, and build the housing for free?
@@thomasjamesbailey1209 then the money goes to govs that sometimes have no idea how to spend it right. Or you get more investment in tax heavens, job losses. And how do you define who is "too rich" because for example 5k/month is very comfortable in EU and NA
4:40 my reasoning is because there is someone who has to put labor into creating it/distributing it, and in most situations they won't do it for others unless they get compensation for their work. The only way they get compensated is if the people consuming give them something back, like money.
Well thats the reason that somebody has to pay for it. The reason why governments don't pay for it is a fundamental belief by those in power that nobody would work if they didn't have to under threat of death. That if we just got our bare minimum needs met no questions asked that nobody would drive trucks or clean sewers or harvest crops or build skyscrapers.
Also the bum class that would just,live eat and crap off of the others hard work would eventually become restless and claim they dont get enough. And that number would be in the billions,because we know that if given the chance to work hard and create or sit at home, eat ,drink and party, they would choose the easy path. I have a handful of bums in my own family that would never work another day if given the chance,so I know every other family has the same mix all over the world
@@lilknox2225 It is worth saying tho. "Fossil" fuel a misleading name cause fossil fuels (oil, natural gas and coal) don't come from dead dinos; its from plant matter.
This episode is a big sign that says "Yeah, Humanity is doomed to fail." I'm giving us another 1000 years, after that the squirrels or cats are taking over.
(4:20) if everything we need to keep us alive is free ... who would make it? why would anyone work to make the things you need, if they are not getting paid for it, and can just get that thing without working?
To explain why we pay for food and stuff we technically don’t have to but we can’t eat like we used to so it’s better for us to pay. Also to make the food we eat now it costs labour which people won’t do for free so they need paid but the people can’t give away money or they’ll go bankrupt. So you don’t HAVE to pay for food and water but we do because we have mostly forgotten how to hunt. Edit: didn’t read comments before I wrote this. I didn’t copy anything just didn’t see anyone saying this
It literally isn’t free. What I mean is, just cuz you didn’t pay for it doesn’t mean someone didn’t have to harvest it or collect it or otherwise refine it. If they aren’t paid for their work, how does this free thing work?
@@courve the same way fire departments, post offices and other state funded programs for the ppl work. im sure most ppl would be in favor of paying higher taxes for these commodities. or even re-alocating funds from the overfunded defense/police force(im an american. idk how much $ goes to defense in other countires but we could spare alot here)
@@johnyrewilliams7820 if you’re an American then you know that government funded programs are notoriously mismanaged and trash in general. The fact that your idea is just to add more cash to a sinking boat with a hole in it is literally why I made my previous comment.
@@johnyrewilliams7820 Yes, because the random guy on the internet understands better than the people who are actively involved in the defense of the country exactly what spending is needed. It may or may not be bloated, but here's a question for you: Without knowing the answer to how much bloat there actually is, how much money would you re-allocate from defense spending, and are you prepared for the consequences of being wrong and taking too much? To get to your other point, you're being quite quick and loose with other people's paychecks, and assuming what they would be willing to pay out to the government for an unquantified return on food. I, for one, would not approve of _any_ further tax dollars being taken from my paycheck so that I could eat for free; I'd rather choose to spend what I want on food instead, thank you very much. What's your favorite burger place? Have you considered that if they were subsidized by the government, and literally couldn't fail if they wanted to, what would happen to the quality of their food? That burger you like - or substitute in any other meal - takes a lot of prep work and ingredients. If they're too big to fail, then maybe they'll step back on their pricier ingredients to save a few bucks for their own pockets. After all, they're still providing free food, right? What does it matter if it isn't as good as it was before, when they had to attract your interest? It's not a life and death matter, so long as the food is still safe to eat, after all. Now apply that on a broad scale. Remove competition, and why should there be any quality or variety at all? They're getting paid either way. Moreover, if food is free, then why should _I_ work, and have my hard earned dollars be taken from me anyway, when my neighbor's tax "contribution" will keep me and my family fed as it is? Free stuff is nice, and it's nice to assume that the necessities for survival could be free, but that's not the way the world, or the way that humanity works. Either we work for each other for compensation, or we work together as slaves to feed an upper class.
I’m 100% with you. The basics should be free. Work should produce wealth and opportunities. Working for just the basics is just slavery with extra steps. Universal Basic Income.
you are forgetting something, we are humans, we abuse things until they are in the border of extintion for sport or game, we move thing out of their habitat for entertainment, so is completly in us to cosume everything we have just because we can, countries that have accses to water never made a system to share it between countries and we even need a reason to be charitable, the most popular is been noticed on the social networks
4:20 It would be nice if it were free, but even if it were free to consumers, it's not free to procure and produce. Wheat, beef, milk, eggs, sugar, and so on. We don't subsist on sunlight, we subsist on things that need to be grown, fed, and processed. Even then, what I listed are the very basics, but really, it's so much deeper still. Cows, for example, need space, food, heathcare of their own, and protection while they're alive. That takes a lot of money, time, and effort. Then they need to be processed, broken down safely, and delivered to where they need to go so that you can eat beef. That's more money, time, and effort. And that's just one example. It's the same for everything you eat, even before getting into the more complex things. Say you want a hamburger; well, take that process with the beef, then consider what it takes to get wheat, sugar, yeast, and clean water for the buns, to process the milk into the cheese, to get the seasonings and spices and fruits and vegetables that you need to to complete the hamburger. Every step of that process takes tremendous effort and the involvement of dozens, if not hundreds of people. Should those people not work for pay? Should they be slaves so that everyone can eat for free? If there was no pay involved the creation of food, then those people would turn inward, and just focus on feeding themselves. It's the same thing for healthcare. It takes years and years of expensive and exhaustive education to learn how to treat people efficiently. Doctors aren't just born with medical knowledge, after all. Medicine follows a similar track of production as food, where it needs to be grown or procured, treated, and processed into the final product. That's not to say that there aren't flaws in the system that shouldn't be there. Medicine and healthcare is far more expensive than it should be, but that's primarily caused by external forces in the form of lobbyists and political intervention. But on the basic level, it loops back to the same kind of question: should doctors and pharmacists and therapists work for free and be slaves? Because if that's the answer, then they won't be around for much longer. This continues on with every industry. Technology: Parts, components, training and expertise take money, time, and effort. Rinse and repeat. Construction. Energy and Power, Manufacturing. Heating and Cooling, Entertainment, and so on and so forth. Everything is interlinked so that we can live the lives that we have now, rather than needing to spend the entirety of our lives just making sure that we can grow enough food to survive. Because farmers do this on a large scale, it allows other people to specialize in other fields without needing to worry about their own families starving. Paying for food isn't so much of a cost on you to live, as it is a mean of communities as a whole working together to ensure And if your response is that goverment would just subsidize everyone, then consider first, where do they get the money? Taxation and printing; with the former, you're paying more money anyway, without being allowed to choose whether you actually wanted that hamburger or not, and with the latter, you're going to see inflation to the point that your money is worthless anyway. Either way, you lose net value. That, itself, is even before human corruption and greed is factored in, which will have their own cost on you somewhere down the line. So, TL;DR, food and water shouldn't be free, because just getting it to your plate is a highly involved process that can involve hundreds of people's labor, at a minimum, and they need to be compensated or else they won't continue to work, which means that the food that you wanted for free will no longer exist period, unless you grow it yourself.
4:55 Government needs money to sustain, and stuff like healthcare is what pays the doctors that help you. If the government is paying for everything for you the government will lose money and collapse. i.e (Soviet Russia)
@@9553shadow that's true. This pro lem was solved in the 1600s with a political philosophy where we look at how money shapes systems. The conclusion was that an elected republic could use taxes and regulations to lift people out of survival and into prosperity. This idea is called capitalism, you can look it up. It is entirely normal for capitalist societies to tax sophisticated financial systems more than enough to pay for rice to be farmed.
@@RoundHouseDictator while that is true. you cant say its a flawless system. there is still a lot of poverty and starvation. you know its kinda funny that in some places being homeless is better than being poor.
True we shouldnt pay for any of that at least ouside society, but sadly theres no outside of society concept cause psychopaths decades ago decided everything has an owner either its private or public wich means you´re not allowed to freely create your own society outside society...
Normally I would agree on things that keep us alive being free but as I got older I saw it different. Water and Power should be free but paying for it is SUPPOSE to go towards upkeep. Keeping the power on and our water clean. While some of it goes towards that we all know not ALL of it does otherwise things would be better in that department. Housing should be free as well but then we would have to get rid of overly large homes, which im all for because I see a lot of that as a waste of limited resources. Yes, we can regrow trees for wood but it takes times and wood isn't the only thing that makes up houses. Then we would have to assign a new way of housing. Either by class, job, location or go the way of sci-fi movies and make every apartment the same size and every house the same size. Varying only by the amount of rooms needed for children. Food should also be free but again, people who grow/raise food need money to keep doing what they're doing. Again, upkeep. Then there is money for storage and distribution. That being said if we look at the numbers, for example in the United States, going by population we could all pay for a week's worth of groceries for one dollar and cover the millions it would cost for all that. All issues that people are not going to want to change or fix but in the end we should still pay for it; just not anywhere near the amount we ARE paying for it. It should drastically less.
But if no one works no one gets anything. But the robots could be doing it all anyway at this point so this argument is getting weird, not wrong, just weird.
@@derforce5 but somebody have to build these robots and maintain them. Self-replicating nanobots would solve it, probably, but again: some human should spend their time developing the nanobots, and nobody would do it for free.
No, it's not crazy to think basic things should be provided and decommodify things like housing. Workers should also have democratized workplaces making a living wage while having collective ownership over production. It's called socislism. It's not the boogeyman people try to make it out as. In the states, we spend billions trying to squash any notion of the idea. We're still doing Red Scare level disinformation.
4:40 Well, would you like to work for free to produce food for someone else? If food is free, that means you have to provide it for free to others. Better get your farming equipment.
The thing with the money issue is that if you don't have to pay you don't have to work. If no one works, you can't get food, health care, or anything. When you work, you help your society, then get paid for your services. With that money, you can then pay someone services to get what you need.
Sure, but who decided a 40 hour work week was appropriate? Or that those hours should be dragged along 5 of our 7 days to each week? Studies even show a 4 day work week produces better results for all parties involved. People need more whole days to unwind from the busy scheduled world. The alternative to whole days would be small doses everyday, like 5½ hour shifts everyday. That means a commute everyday, also. Bleh! It's too much. So we're back to the middle ground, as things are, or improving the work/life cycle with more whole days off. Sidenote for sake of the show and the scenario therein - the dinosaurs provided everything so there actually was no need to work.
@kawnartist yeah, your point about the time of work is legit, but to be fair, everyone could have a say about how much time they are ready to work. And on my point, i mean we all live in a society and it's normal to contribute. On the other hand, those that could work but don't and get money from ur hard labor. That feel unfair.
I'm russian and let me just say this: communism is the worst thing that happend to my country. We are still paying for this shitshow 30 years later. This stupid agression from "our" politicans towards the west is the price.
Are you seriously questioning why you should pay for housing and stuff like that? Because it takes a lot of work and money to build housing, who's going to pay for that if not the person that's going to live there?
The reason even basic necessities aren't free is because nothing's truly free, or rather everything has a cost to existing. Steaks don't fall out of the sky and land in your plate, Someone has cook that steak, another person has to butcher that meat, another person has to make the spices to cook with, another person has to grow the crops that make the spices and feed the cow, using fertilizer that someone else had to make from compost, using compost left over from other people's waste. Not to mention the people who need to make the plate or the stove and all the people making the materials to be used to make the plate and stove, etc. None of those people want to do work for nothing, so that's why it costs money. Anything in the world that you can get for free is just paid for by someone else, like education, police protection and some medical care. In those cases, that payment comes from the government and therefore your taxes so you're still paying for it one way or another The reason free stuff works in this Dinosaur utopia is that they seem to have developed some kinda technology to do all that work instead of people doing it. There's free food but nobody needs to go out and make the food, nobody needs to prepare it and nobody needs to serve it, it's all done autonomously in what I assume is a shockingly energy-efficient manner. Nothing actually goes into making each steak so nothing needs to be spent in getting it. Though even this wouldn't be realistic if a human did it, because nobody would go out of their way to develop that kinda technology unless they were getting paid to. Hence we're all in one endless cycle of needing to work to eat, despite society often having a massive surplus in food.
When you you pay for water, you're paying for the sanitation needed to make that water drinkable in the first place and the infrastructure to get it to your tap. When you pay for education you're paying for the training it took for that teacher to become qualified as well as the time they spend teaching you. I agree that all humans have a fundamental right to these things, but that isn't going to make them appear out of thin air. People have to work to provide these things and people who work have to get paid.
“Free” only works if the resource is naturally occurring and doesn’t need any alterations to be useful or effort to upkeep. “Should be free” only works if someone is preventing access to the above just cuz they can. The magical resource above doesn’t actually exist btw 🤷🏾♂️
if we had robots to automatically produce and manage all food production and house building that would be feasible, but currently if you want free food, water and shelter someone has to work to provide that for you, and that person isn't going to accept working for free
I agree about the basic human living cost. To a degree. I live in Newfoundland, which is the bigger island province of Canada sitting in the Atlantic ocean; with Labrador being the northern mainland part of our government. The cost of living here can get intense at times with $1200 monthly rent or $300,000 houses if you can get a mortgages, along with $6 cartons of eggs and $5 2 liter cartons of milk. But the average wage here doesn't sustain that. We already have mostly free health care where people literally die in the emergency room while waiting for medical help. We are taxed to death, we normally have to give up at least 20% of what we make to federal and provisional taxes. So I guess it's a cavoite of sorts. But some kind of supplement on living besides the tax refund by wage benefit would be nice
Not having to pay for water i totally understand. However if you don't want to hunt/forage/ grow your own food. Then you should have to pay for it. Water is one of those things you just have to find to be able to drink. Even if its dirty or salty. Fire is easy to make, and materials for it are abundant. Food is an entirely different story tho. Food has always been work. If you look at hunter gatherers today. Hunting is extremely hard work, and very dangerous. Not only do you risk getting attacked by whatever you are hunting, but the smell of the blood and meat when you do kill it attracts predators. You want to eat? Get off your ass and either pay for the food other people worked for. Or become one of the people who go out and find it
we pay for basic things because, on the moral side, if we didnt, we would use all the food in less time than our normal lifetime, and we wouldnt share it, and in the economical side, we just like money
It's not that food costs money. You're paying for someone else to get it for you. You can grow or hunt your own food and boil your own water. Society brings it to you at a cost.
You talk about basic things being free. Food should be free, education should be free. Nothing is free. When we talk about that something is free, we're actually saying that is paid for by someone else. Food will never be free, since someone needs to produce the food and the labor that goes into food production should be rewarded. We hear all the time, that in some countries education is free, but that's not correct. Yes it's free for the person being educated, but the cost of running the education must be paid somehow, which is usually done via high taxes. In general this means that a person who receives education that results in higher income will pay back the cost over a lifetime via taxation. Of course this also means that anyone who is not educated will be forced to pay high taxes in order to educate others, without receiving any benefit themselves.
we pay for things because someone has to provide those things. and when the government starts paying for everything money loses its value and people stop working. look at any and every socialist society in history, without the motivation that comes from needing to buy food and stuff people just stop working bc they dont feel motivated.
Everyone should be capable of taking care of themselves. In the wild, no one is going to feed you, especially not for free. Sure, different food sources should be available for people to take care of and feed themselves. But free food isn't free food. Free food is food someone else paid and worked for. I understand society is unfair in ways that don't make it simple for everyone to feed themselves, but a system were people just take and don't work, or exchange money (which essentially represents your work), for their food is just as unsustainable as burning fossil fuels forever. You're just kicking the can down the road to the next generation, or those actually working to produce the food you feel you deserve for doing nothing but just being here. "There's no such thing as a 'free lunch'"
Sure, just feed,clothe and house everyone free of charge whether they work or not. Literally billions of people would be bums living off the backs of those that create ,sacrifice and work hard. Would those hard worker creators get better homes, better food, better medical because they sacrifice to take care of the billions of bums? How long until those billions of bums get restless and start lashing out at the creators and workers and want what they have ? Or we can make it so people have to work for a better life and don't just have never-ending adolescent ideas of how great it was to just be taken care of by daddy and mummy or in your case Govt Daddy or Govt Mummy. I'm sorry, but you appear to work very hard , you're constantly producing content and busting your arse to get it out daily. Would you be ok with your income being split into 1/3rds and the bums who sit at home everyday eating off the other 2/3rds of your money because you signed on to this idea that everyone deserves free everything ? If you think I'm lying about people's nature's, just thinking of the bums in your family, who hate to work and are always up to no good or nothing at all and get back to me. I myself have at least 3 bums arses in mine, so don't pretend you don't haha

2:36 Arabian guy was nervous because hardly speaking dinosaurs died and after millions of years became OIL. He is literally pumping out of the ground liquid dead dinasaurs and turns them into fuel. Of course he is nervous!
Although it should be noted that dinosaurs aren't the only biological source of fuel. Plant matter breaks down into oil as well - even the trees growing today will some day become crude oil. So honestly, today's crude oil has more ancient plants in it than it does dinosaurs.

4:50 "why should we have to pay for that?" because someone has to bottle the water, filter it, make sure it's safe to consume. these things take someone who has to get it done, even if it's an automated process, someone has to ensure the system stays up to date, passes inspection. i would love a free society but with free, comes entitlement and no one should be entitled to more water or more food than someone else. someone has to grow the food. "what if the food is already provided?" someone has to serve it and dispense it to be retrieved from the consumers. think of the rick and morty episode with the miniverse. "thats just slavery with extra steps" lmfaooo the idea sounds nice but our system works because others put in more work them some, if not most, so they get the biggest benefit. people at the bottom shouldnt complain for their inadequacies/ short comings when they are just as able to work as hard as the next person. the next person has a purpose for why they do what they do. be the best you that you can be and the rewards will come. dont expect it, just work hard and know it will come. this is why Goku will always be stronger than Vegeta. He works hard for the benefit of working hard, not to compare to others like Vegeta. So in the end, we cannot have a society where everything is free because someone has to work to get the food, water, etc. Everyone does their part, when everything is free, people can get extra as much as they want, which leaves less for the next person, which then defeats the purpose of everything being free if everyone cannot have
Yep. Work requires compensation. Simple as that. no compensation, no work.
0:55 Dude, do you understand that this was Kthulhu like monster from the opening? We were looking for him for years and then Rick faced him he just scared this monster with som e water. That was low

@@ivankawnartist good point
@@ivankawnartist yeah, I also almoust missed it
Anything mandatory for human life should be free.

If he said this around Americans they would probably shoot him for even thinking about socialism 💀
But it costs money to make mineral water and clean water so why should we not pay?
the issue with free food, water, and housing is that you also need to ask yourself: are you willing to grow the food, sanitize the water, and build the housing for free?
4:19 If something is free, someone, somewhere is paying for it somehow
True but things could at least be more equal, like your average person should 100% be getting paid more and the top be getting taxed more.
@@thomasjamesbailey1209 then the money goes to govs that sometimes have no idea how to spend it right.
Or you get more investment in tax heavens, job losses.
And how do you define who is "too rich" because for example 5k/month is very comfortable in EU and NA
4:40 my reasoning is because there is someone who has to put labor into creating it/distributing it, and in most situations they won't do it for others unless they get compensation for their work. The only way they get compensated is if the people consuming give them something back, like money.
Well thats the reason that somebody has to pay for it. The reason why governments don't pay for it is a fundamental belief by those in power that nobody would work if they didn't have to under threat of death. That if we just got our bare minimum needs met no questions asked that nobody would drive trucks or clean sewers or harvest crops or build skyscrapers.
Also the bum class that would just,live eat and crap off of the others hard work would eventually become restless and claim they dont get enough.
And that number would be in the billions,because we know that if given the chance to work hard and create or sit at home, eat ,drink and party, they would choose the easy path.
I have a handful of bums in my own family that would never work another day if given the chance,so I know every other family has the same mix all over the world

The answer: 9:00
2:37 the guy is nervous because all the “dinosaur evidence” is being used as fosil gas (whatever the english word is) in the middle east
Prime Rick And Evil Morty is still a thing so hopefully there's more lore episodes about them
Don no way you called a pterodactyl Aerodactyle 😂😂😂
i like listening your reflexion, you actually very smart
To explain why we pay for food and stuff we technically don’t have to but we can’t eat like we used to so it’s better for us to pay. Also to make the food we eat now it costs labour which people won’t do for free so they need paid but the people can’t give away money or they’ll go bankrupt. So you don’t HAVE to pay for food and water but we do because we have mostly forgotten how to hunt.
Edit: didn’t read comments before I wrote this. I didn’t copy anything just didn’t see anyone saying this
the arab guy was nervous because the dinos asked what happened to the remains of their ancestors, and they were used to create fossil fuels lol
I agree. Food, water and shelter should be free. Simple, basic needs should be provided for if we’re expected to work our whole lives in a society.
4:10 oof
Because food costs money to make and water costs money to maintain
Rick should have kept the Portal Pistol!! It's the only advantage over defeating Rick Prime!!
yes. food, water and shelter should be free.
After all, they just fall to us from outer space in sufficient quantity. But evil people take them away for the sake of enrichment.
It literally isn’t free. What I mean is, just cuz you didn’t pay for it doesn’t mean someone didn’t have to harvest it or collect it or otherwise refine it. If they aren’t paid for their work, how does this free thing work?
@@courve the same way fire departments, post offices and other state funded programs for the ppl work. im sure most ppl would be in favor of paying higher taxes for these commodities. or even re-alocating funds from the overfunded defense/police force(im an american. idk how much $ goes to defense in other countires but we could spare alot here)
@@johnyrewilliams7820 if you’re an American then you know that government funded programs are notoriously mismanaged and trash in general. The fact that your idea is just to add more cash to a sinking boat with a hole in it is literally why I made my previous comment.
@@johnyrewilliams7820 Yes, because the random guy on the internet understands better than the people who are actively involved in the defense of the country exactly what spending is needed. It may or may not be bloated, but here's a question for you: Without knowing the answer to how much bloat there actually is, how much money would you re-allocate from defense spending, and are you prepared for the consequences of being wrong and taking too much?
To get to your other point, you're being quite quick and loose with other people's paychecks, and assuming what they would be willing to pay out to the government for an unquantified return on food. I, for one, would not approve of _any_ further tax dollars being taken from my paycheck so that I could eat for free; I'd rather choose to spend what I want on food instead, thank you very much.
What's your favorite burger place? Have you considered that if they were subsidized by the government, and literally couldn't fail if they wanted to, what would happen to the quality of their food? That burger you like - or substitute in any other meal - takes a lot of prep work and ingredients. If they're too big to fail, then maybe they'll step back on their pricier ingredients to save a few bucks for their own pockets. After all, they're still providing free food, right? What does it matter if it isn't as good as it was before, when they had to attract your interest? It's not a life and death matter, so long as the food is still safe to eat, after all.
Now apply that on a broad scale. Remove competition, and why should there be any quality or variety at all? They're getting paid either way. Moreover, if food is free, then why should _I_ work, and have my hard earned dollars be taken from me anyway, when my neighbor's tax "contribution" will keep me and my family fed as it is?
Free stuff is nice, and it's nice to assume that the necessities for survival could be free, but that's not the way the world, or the way that humanity works. Either we work for each other for compensation, or we work together as slaves to feed an upper class.
Don learns about the concept of socialism
I’m 100% with you. The basics should be free. Work should produce wealth and opportunities. Working for just the basics is just slavery with extra steps. Universal Basic Income.
you are forgetting something, we are humans, we abuse things until they are in the border of extintion for sport or game, we move thing out of their habitat for entertainment, so is completly in us to cosume everything we have just because we can, countries that have accses to water never made a system to share it between countries and we even need a reason to be charitable, the most popular is been noticed on the social networks
UBI is coming from taxes, youre welcome.
4:40 yeah its the capitalism, man
6:57 WHAT THE FUUUUUUUuuuuuu
4:20 It would be nice if it were free, but even if it were free to consumers, it's not free to procure and produce. Wheat, beef, milk, eggs, sugar, and so on. We don't subsist on sunlight, we subsist on things that need to be grown, fed, and processed. Even then, what I listed are the very basics, but really, it's so much deeper still. Cows, for example, need space, food, heathcare of their own, and protection while they're alive. That takes a lot of money, time, and effort. Then they need to be processed, broken down safely, and delivered to where they need to go so that you can eat beef. That's more money, time, and effort. And that's just one example. It's the same for everything you eat, even before getting into the more complex things. Say you want a hamburger; well, take that process with the beef, then consider what it takes to get wheat, sugar, yeast, and clean water for the buns, to process the milk into the cheese, to get the seasonings and spices and fruits and vegetables that you need to to complete the hamburger.
Every step of that process takes tremendous effort and the involvement of dozens, if not hundreds of people. Should those people not work for pay? Should they be slaves so that everyone can eat for free? If there was no pay involved the creation of food, then those people would turn inward, and just focus on feeding themselves.
It's the same thing for healthcare. It takes years and years of expensive and exhaustive education to learn how to treat people efficiently. Doctors aren't just born with medical knowledge, after all. Medicine follows a similar track of production as food, where it needs to be grown or procured, treated, and processed into the final product. That's not to say that there aren't flaws in the system that shouldn't be there. Medicine and healthcare is far more expensive than it should be, but that's primarily caused by external forces in the form of lobbyists and political intervention. But on the basic level, it loops back to the same kind of question: should doctors and pharmacists and therapists work for free and be slaves? Because if that's the answer, then they won't be around for much longer.
This continues on with every industry. Technology: Parts, components, training and expertise take money, time, and effort. Rinse and repeat. Construction. Energy and Power, Manufacturing. Heating and Cooling, Entertainment, and so on and so forth. Everything is interlinked so that we can live the lives that we have now, rather than needing to spend the entirety of our lives just making sure that we can grow enough food to survive. Because farmers do this on a large scale, it allows other people to specialize in other fields without needing to worry about their own families starving. Paying for food isn't so much of a cost on you to live, as it is a mean of communities as a whole working together to ensure
And if your response is that goverment would just subsidize everyone, then consider first, where do they get the money? Taxation and printing; with the former, you're paying more money anyway, without being allowed to choose whether you actually wanted that hamburger or not, and with the latter, you're going to see inflation to the point that your money is worthless anyway. Either way, you lose net value. That, itself, is even before human corruption and greed is factored in, which will have their own cost on you somewhere down the line.
So, TL;DR, food and water shouldn't be free, because just getting it to your plate is a highly involved process that can involve hundreds of people's labor, at a minimum, and they need to be compensated or else they won't continue to work, which means that the food that you wanted for free will no longer exist period, unless you grow it yourself.
4:15 Karl marx in 1870
4:55 Government needs money to sustain, and stuff like healthcare is what pays the doctors that help you. If the government is paying for everything for you the government will lose money and collapse. i.e (Soviet Russia)
so, who bring water to your home? you wanna do it yourself?
Keep talking that 'free food, shelter, and water', and people will start to think you're a communist.

how does don townsend not even know joe rogans name he just said "that one youtubeer" ahahah wtf
We pay for things because no one would work to provide those things if we didn't. Especially the things we need.
Agreed.
If I didn't need to pay for rice and beans, that would not be enough luxury for me to stop working
@@RoundHouseDictator but people who grow the rice and beans would not work for free anyway.
@@9553shadow that's true. This pro lem was solved in the 1600s with a political philosophy where we look at how money shapes systems. The conclusion was that an elected republic could use taxes and regulations to lift people out of survival and into prosperity. This idea is called capitalism, you can look it up. It is entirely normal for capitalist societies to tax sophisticated financial systems more than enough to pay for rice to be farmed.
@@RoundHouseDictator while that is true. you cant say its a flawless system. there is still a lot of poverty and starvation. you know its kinda funny that in some places being homeless is better than being poor.
True we shouldnt pay for any of that at least ouside society, but sadly theres no outside of society concept cause psychopaths decades ago decided everything has an owner either its private or public wich means you´re not allowed to freely create your own society outside society...
2k likes on the breaking bad episode. Was hoping we would get episode 2 today because of it....
W don
I think your basic food and water should be free
Na not off topic at all Don, we talking about free because of the show.
You should watch endgame and the other avengers movies if you haven't
Normally I would agree on things that keep us alive being free but as I got older I saw it different. Water and Power should be free but paying for it is SUPPOSE to go towards upkeep. Keeping the power on and our water clean. While some of it goes towards that we all know not ALL of it does otherwise things would be better in that department. Housing should be free as well but then we would have to get rid of overly large homes, which im all for because I see a lot of that as a waste of limited resources. Yes, we can regrow trees for wood but it takes times and wood isn't the only thing that makes up houses. Then we would have to assign a new way of housing. Either by class, job, location or go the way of sci-fi movies and make every apartment the same size and every house the same size. Varying only by the amount of rooms needed for children. Food should also be free but again, people who grow/raise food need money to keep doing what they're doing. Again, upkeep. Then there is money for storage and distribution. That being said if we look at the numbers, for example in the United States, going by population we could all pay for a week's worth of groceries for one dollar and cover the millions it would cost for all that. All issues that people are not going to want to change or fix but in the end we should still pay for it; just not anywhere near the amount we ARE paying for it. It should drastically less.
Basic needs should be free but unfortunately we are paying for it because the rich get richer.
But if no one works no one gets anything. But the robots could be doing it all anyway at this point so this argument is getting weird, not wrong, just weird.
@@derforce5 but somebody have to build these robots and maintain them. Self-replicating nanobots would solve it, probably, but again: some human should spend their time developing the nanobots, and nobody would do it for free.
@Speaker264 the tesla robots build themselves. So maintenence isn't a jump.
No, it's not crazy to think basic things should be provided and decommodify things like housing. Workers should also have democratized workplaces making a living wage while having collective ownership over production.
It's called socislism. It's not the boogeyman people try to make it out as. In the states, we spend billions trying to squash any notion of the idea. We're still doing Red Scare level disinformation.
4:40 Well, would you like to work for free to produce food for someone else? If food is free, that means you have to provide it for free to others. Better get your farming equipment.
👺🤝🏾🗿
The thing with the money issue is that if you don't have to pay you don't have to work.
If no one works, you can't get food, health care, or anything.
When you work, you help your society, then get paid for your services. With that money, you can then pay someone services to get what you need.
Sure, but who decided a 40 hour work week was appropriate? Or that those hours should be dragged along 5 of our 7 days to each week? Studies even show a 4 day work week produces better results for all parties involved. People need more whole days to unwind from the busy scheduled world. The alternative to whole days would be small doses everyday, like 5½ hour shifts everyday. That means a commute everyday, also. Bleh! It's too much. So we're back to the middle ground, as things are, or improving the work/life cycle with more whole days off.
Sidenote for sake of the show and the scenario therein - the dinosaurs provided everything so there actually was no need to work.
@@ivankawnartist you pretty much extrapolated my point by like 5X. And it worked in rick and morty because the dinosaurs did everything.
@@volug0110 Yeah, but I elaborated on your point and you completely ignored that...
@kawnartist yeah, your point about the time of work is legit, but to be fair, everyone could have a say about how much time they are ready to work.
And on my point, i mean we all live in a society and it's normal to contribute.
On the other hand, those that could work but don't and get money from ur hard labor. That feel unfair.
4:02 That is called communism sir. I don't know if you remember but they tried that in the soviet union and ummm it didnt go so well
I'm russian and let me just say this: communism is the worst thing that happend to my country. We are still paying for this shitshow 30 years later. This stupid agression from "our" politicans towards the west is the price.
Every video I watch with you, I feel like you've literally been born like 5 weeks ago. Not knowing anything or anybody or any reference what so ever.
rick cross? like, what XDDD fucking hilarious tho
Are you seriously questioning why you should pay for housing and stuff like that?
Because it takes a lot of work and money to build housing, who's going to pay for that if not the person that's going to live there?
The reason even basic necessities aren't free is because nothing's truly free, or rather everything has a cost to existing. Steaks don't fall out of the sky and land in your plate, Someone has cook that steak, another person has to butcher that meat, another person has to make the spices to cook with, another person has to grow the crops that make the spices and feed the cow, using fertilizer that someone else had to make from compost, using compost left over from other people's waste. Not to mention the people who need to make the plate or the stove and all the people making the materials to be used to make the plate and stove, etc. None of those people want to do work for nothing, so that's why it costs money. Anything in the world that you can get for free is just paid for by someone else, like education, police protection and some medical care. In those cases, that payment comes from the government and therefore your taxes so you're still paying for it one way or another
The reason free stuff works in this Dinosaur utopia is that they seem to have developed some kinda technology to do all that work instead of people doing it. There's free food but nobody needs to go out and make the food, nobody needs to prepare it and nobody needs to serve it, it's all done autonomously in what I assume is a shockingly energy-efficient manner. Nothing actually goes into making each steak so nothing needs to be spent in getting it. Though even this wouldn't be realistic if a human did it, because nobody would go out of their way to develop that kinda technology unless they were getting paid to. Hence we're all in one endless cycle of needing to work to eat, despite society often having a massive surplus in food.
When you you pay for water, you're paying for the sanitation needed to make that water drinkable in the first place and the infrastructure to get it to your tap. When you pay for education you're paying for the training it took for that teacher to become qualified as well as the time they spend teaching you. I agree that all humans have a fundamental right to these things, but that isn't going to make them appear out of thin air. People have to work to provide these things and people who work have to get paid.
“Free” only works if the resource is naturally occurring and doesn’t need any alterations to be useful or effort to upkeep. “Should be free” only works if someone is preventing access to the above just cuz they can. The magical resource above doesn’t actually exist btw 🤷🏾♂️
4:25 bro this take is so bad I don’t even want to argue against it
if we had robots to automatically produce and manage all food production and house building that would be feasible, but currently if you want free food, water and shelter someone has to work to provide that for you, and that person isn't going to accept working for free
I agree about the basic human living cost. To a degree. I live in Newfoundland, which is the bigger island province of Canada sitting in the Atlantic ocean; with Labrador being the northern mainland part of our government. The cost of living here can get intense at times with $1200 monthly rent or $300,000 houses if you can get a mortgages, along with $6 cartons of eggs and $5 2 liter cartons of milk. But the average wage here doesn't sustain that. We already have mostly free health care where people literally die in the emergency room while waiting for medical help. We are taxed to death, we normally have to give up at least 20% of what we make to federal and provisional taxes. So I guess it's a cavoite of sorts. But some kind of supplement on living besides the tax refund by wage benefit would be nice
Not having to pay for water i totally understand. However if you don't want to hunt/forage/ grow your own food. Then you should have to pay for it. Water is one of those things you just have to find to be able to drink. Even if its dirty or salty. Fire is easy to make, and materials for it are abundant. Food is an entirely different story tho. Food has always been work. If you look at hunter gatherers today. Hunting is extremely hard work, and very dangerous. Not only do you risk getting attacked by whatever you are hunting, but the smell of the blood and meat when you do kill it attracts predators. You want to eat? Get off your ass and either pay for the food other people worked for. Or become one of the people who go out and find it
In a perfect world we help each other instead of competing to live
The people at the top have a vested interest in making sure this isn't a perfect world. They drain our freedom and safety to supply their own.
First comment
If we want to don't pay for that things, someone must working in those industries for free too. i doubt you can find a lot of this type of people.
first
we pay for basic things because, on the moral side, if we didnt, we would use all the food in less time than our normal lifetime, and we wouldnt share it, and in the economical side, we just like money
It's not that food costs money. You're paying for someone else to get it for you. You can grow or hunt your own food and boil your own water. Society brings it to you at a cost.
You want these things to be free but what about the people who have to work to create these things?
You talk about basic things being free. Food should be free, education should be free. Nothing is free. When we talk about that something is free, we're actually saying that is paid for by someone else. Food will never be free, since someone needs to produce the food and the labor that goes into food production should be rewarded.
We hear all the time, that in some countries education is free, but that's not correct. Yes it's free for the person being educated, but the cost of running the education must be paid somehow, which is usually done via high taxes. In general this means that a person who receives education that results in higher income will pay back the cost over a lifetime via taxation. Of course this also means that anyone who is not educated will be forced to pay high taxes in order to educate others, without receiving any benefit themselves.
Worst react i have ever seen
we pay for things because someone has to provide those things. and when the government starts paying for everything money loses its value and people stop working. look at any and every socialist society in history, without the motivation that comes from needing to buy food and stuff people just stop working bc they dont feel motivated.
Everyone should be capable of taking care of themselves. In the wild, no one is going to feed you, especially not for free.
Sure, different food sources should be available for people to take care of and feed themselves. But free food isn't free food. Free food is food someone else paid and worked for.
I understand society is unfair in ways that don't make it simple for everyone to feed themselves, but a system were people just take and don't work, or exchange money (which essentially represents your work), for their food is just as unsustainable as burning fossil fuels forever. You're just kicking the can down the road to the next generation, or those actually working to produce the food you feel you deserve for doing nothing but just being here.
"There's no such thing as a 'free lunch'"
Sure, just feed,clothe and house everyone free of charge whether they work or not.
Literally billions of people would be bums living off the backs of those that create ,sacrifice and work hard.
Would those hard worker creators get better homes, better food, better medical because they sacrifice to take care of the billions of bums?
How long until those billions of bums get restless and start lashing out at the creators and workers and want what they have ?
Or we can make it so people have to work for a better life and don't just have never-ending adolescent ideas of how great it was to just be taken care of by daddy and mummy or in your case Govt Daddy or Govt Mummy.
I'm sorry, but you appear to work very hard , you're constantly producing content and busting your arse
to get it out daily. Would you be ok with your income being split into 1/3rds and the bums who sit at home everyday eating off the other 2/3rds of your money because you signed on to this idea that everyone deserves free everything ?
If you think I'm lying about people's nature's, just thinking of the bums in your family, who hate to work and are always up to no good or nothing at all and get back to me.
I myself have at least 3 bums arses in mine, so don't pretend you don't haha
The thing with free stuff, who is going to work then? Why work if the food your selling is free.
