    enough to pay for health insurance

    What a savage notion. Civilized countries have socialized healthcare.

      Substitute whatever you’d like to spend that money on, maybe you have great single payer so maybe you want to spend it on travel, maybe it’s a new car, maybe you want to gamble it all away. The point is that even a relatively small amount of money buys you enough “wiggle room” to pursue more leisurely ways of making a little money.

      It’s easier to make a living walking dogs when you don’t have to worry about keeping the lights on.
