As you've pointed out, some people work harder at GETTING OUT of work, than just doing the work in the first place.
Throughout history, people have prized the ability to not have to work. Generally, not having to work was a sign that one had wealth.
Although today, ignorant people are missing that part of the equation...the most important part, the part about having wealth in reserve. Somehow they continue to strive to not work, while NOT having wealth in reserve.
Working solves a lot of problems besides the obvious concerns of paying for food, shelter, and clothes, there's the social, and mental aspects too. The proceeds from work can also keep people busy, separated from each other from spending a 24hr day together....(most people ;o) Social Scientists can discuss in great detail the benefits from working. Too big of a topic for this post.
