It sounds like you are having a pity party for yourself Vader. I am employed way below what I have college degrees in. Men are superior to damn robots. I will dig ditches or flip burgers before I take welfare. Lord Jesus blesses me for obeying him by working.
I have always maintained physical fitness so manual labor will not hurt me and I will be ready for the collapse and civil war.
A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.
