Christian Fuchs claims anti-work is a mistake concept. Scholars
have argued that the idea of work is stemmed from the capitalist mentality that
has molded western culture. Fuchs argues that people need to work in order for us
to stay economically strong and well balanced. The opposing argument is that work
is inherently toil and alienated and must be abolished. Capitalism creates an unbalanced
economy where the few wealthy extort the poor who have no other choice.
This short video sums up the pros and cons of capitalism. Do
you agree with Fuchs that anti work is a mistake concept or do you believe work
involves a socially accepted form of extortion?
