  1. 60 seems optimistic
  2. Plenty of "antiwork supporters" do believe option 1
  3. Your stance is valid

They may think they believe it, but the lockdowns of 2020 showed otherwise. Unless you're one of the "lucky" nonneurotypical people with a disorder that makes it possible to just lay around and do nothing, people go stir crazy. Feeling productive may as well be on Maslow's hierarchy of needs. That's one of the reasons the great resignation happened. Way too many of us are working bullshit jobs, and we got to face that reality head on, and didn't like it one bit.
