What do you mean? He used the word âneedâ and now youâre changing it to âwants.â
Why are you conflating needs with wants?
Itâs both. Humans need breaks, vacations, etc. I may want to take a vacation to South America but would settle for somewhere North, though.
Humans need breaks, vacations, etc.
Woah woah woah. Breaks and vacations are very different things.
Itâs funny watching you people conflate needs and wants just like breaks and vacations, lol.
You really need to brush up on your vocabulary!
Please do explain the difference, then, between why breaks are necessary but vacations shouldnât be? You do realize study after study shows that 24-30 hour work weeks provide the most productivity? That family leave, healthcare, paid time off etc is associated with the happiest citizens? Is increased well-being not necessary in your worldview?
Youâre arguing semantics while the intention is clear. Quit being pedantic.
In our parentsâ generationâs time, a public service job could fund a house, two kids, and annual vacations. We want that, or even more since weâre significantly more productive since those days. A job used to give us needs and a good amount of wants. Conflating the two in this context, while not perfectly precise, is irrelevant.
