I love the way you get so angry about this. I'm not choosing moral high ground I'm putting forward an opinion.

>lets say everyone had the "courage" to quit their jobs and bludge off
>other people,

I like this idea, then we can all grow our own food and learn to live with a little less and perhaps spend less time getting angry with strangers on the internet.

>its not just a choice,
>otherwise that choice would be open to everyone.

Yes, it is a choice, it is open to everyone who is willing to go without a lot of other things.

>because other people are there to pick up after you.

"just a bit of self righteousness that makes people feel better about
themselves"

>get a job, earn money, take a holiday. anyone that funds their lifestyle
>off handouts is a leech.

I have a job but thanks for your concern.
