The supply for labor depends on the marginal benefits versus the marginal costs. If leisure gets cheaper, taxes go up, or jobs get worse, people on the margin will choose to work fewer hours or exit the workforce. There’s nothing wrong about this! It’s how a free market is supposed to work.

Unfortunately, in our capitalist system, people are demonized for choosing to work less or not at all. It’s viewed as immoral not to work, because the institutions view humans as cattle that must be milked to the maximum. I expect new policies will be created beyond the ones already in place to force people to work. We should resist this, so I support the sentiment of the blogpost even though it’s misleading on a factual basis.
