I knew a person who was rather honest about their laziness. One day at lunch he just said "Yeah, I'm ready to be a millionaire." I said "Well, you better get busy!" With all sincerity he said, "Oh, no! I didn't want to work for it!"


So ?

Its not about one off instance where laziness might be welcome. I am talking about people who add no value to their existence, to the well being of anyone.

ps: I don't understand why my previous comment has to be downmodded. It is to the point of what the post asked for, nothing against the terms. This has been happening too much, I see it everywhere on HN. People downmodded for they don't agree.
