[contemplating aliens, their society, and why

people would want to leave

Earth to live in an alien society]

You mean you'd miss being held hostage to wage

slavery?

Most New Zealanders work 8 hours a day, 5 days a

week.

Australians and New Zealanders are doing better

within the past 30

years than ever in know history.

People need food, shelter and clothing in order to

live.  On Earth people

are required to pay money to get these things.

People are forced to give

their time and abilities to their employer in

exchange for money in order to

buy food, shelter and clothing.  If people do not

give their time and

abilities to their employers, they will not

survive, they will starve to

death, or die of exposure to the elements.  They

have no choice, it's that

way everywhere on Earth.

No, no, no...

People do have a choice.

No unfortunately, they do not.  It is as described

above.

That's freedom !

Nope, that's slavery.

<snip>

Nope!  That is your ignorance.
