I think I'd be happiest as a NEET for the short term future but I'm scared it will become a lifestyle. Is it plausible that NEETS might get exterminated, forced into labour or left to starve/get-malnourished in Western countries like Australia within the next 50 years?
Are NEETs just passive aggressive and bad at externalising, like expressing anger which may motivate them to get stuff done?
You mean, not being able to stay on welfare the entire life?
I have a hard time imagining such a situation happening, but of course, I'm not exactly an expert sociologist of totalitarianism. Which does leave us the intuition that such events would require some kind of totalitarian seizure of power.
