But you need your netflix, 3G, clean street, low emission car, nice flat because... you work. Good for you.

Maybe I am reading too much into this. The core human drives in this life are for a safe, clean place to live and a belly full of food. A secondary would be for social interactions (family, community etc). Every society uses the tools available to make these things happen; they are one of the driving forces that pushed us from hunter gather societies to agricultural villages. In the old days the tools used were muscle, both human and animal, and the rough resources of the land. We also had an average live expectancy of 40, half our kids died of smallpox and measles and most of us starved at least for a part of the year. Now, we write checks from the money we earn and learn how to do the other things via the collective social intelligence of society.

Everyone works unless you have a trust fund or lottery winnings, and even those resources were created by work.

Are you trying to make a point here that I am not understanding?
