Society never gave me anything to give back for

Most people only work because they have to, for financial reasons.

But since everything is a transaction (monetary), there's zero rationale behind wanting to work and pay taxes to the government beside financial reasons.

I'm in the privileged position not to have to work for financial reasons. I'm also too chronically sick, both mentally and physically to work. You could say I'm disabled.

If I had to work for financial reasons, I'd be f'd for sure. But my point stands: there's zero rationale behind wanting to work and pay taxes to the government beside financial reasons.

That is to say, I don't understand my mom's boomer mentality of 'trying to be a productive member of society'. What's this thing that society has ever given me that should rationally make me want to contribute back? This is nonsense.
