>as China's "lying flat" movement

No, you miss that "lying flat" is only possible when cost of food/living is low and housing is abundant.

I believe the closest US equivalent is to get on disability to subsidize those costs. (Especially effective in cheaper areas.)

		Getting on disability is insanely difficult and pays jack shit. That is not a US equivalent by any measure.

Even then, it's only possible when someone is willing to subsidize it, unless both food and housing are free.

Our lying flat is opiods. Generating dark money and killing off the useless, isn't late-stage capitalist empire great?
