[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]God you people are so dumb. The article is not arguing that people "should" be paid for this work, like getting groceries. The point is that the time and effort spent on getting groceries is something that is almost always overlooked and it is a necessary task. You can't function in life without food. Someone has to shop for and cook it. Usually that person is not paid for doing and usually they're not even thanked. The point is that tasks like these should NOT be overlooked. Is that really something you disagree with? [/quote] I think people think it is dumb because everybody gets groceries, everybody. They don't consider it unpaid work. It's necessary, everybody does it, not just non working people. It's done by everybody so it's a silly thing to count. [/quote] Just because everybody does it doesn’t mean it isn’t unpaid work, how is this hard to understand? [/quote]
