The ancient Greek philosophers disagreed about many things, but they shared a common view of work. Platonists, Epicureans, Hedonists, Stoics, Aristoteleans—they all agreed—work is what your slaves do. A man without slaves is in no position to perfect the role of statesman or philosopher, the only truly worthy professions. Aristotle says, “All paid jobs absorb and degrade the mind”.
are you the return of monaco monkey?
I'm not familiar with him. But Howard, please adhere to my warning. The only true freedom is living under a bridge and eating other people's trash.
I sure hope so, up until the end when Monaco completely went off the rails and said some really offensive stuff.
what kind of offensive stuff? could you repeat it word for word? to the best of your knowledge
Just cool it with the anti-Semitic remarks.
yeah well they also fucked kids a bunch
This is proves the philosophers weren't entirely crazy. Look up landed property. It's economic fact that the start of the modern age came from simply having more idle time being used productively by not having to work.
OP, you've hit your peak
