      I think it’s more like, any job you have in a capitalist system (which we live in especially in the USA) will result in enriching the borgeousie more than the laborers. Exceptions may apply for worker owned businesses but those are few and far between and even then usually there is still a hierarchy for pay that can be rather unequal in distribution.

      Anyways idk that’s not really a question that has a simple answer but that’s just something off the top of my head.

      For a funnier example, let’s say I wanted to murder you and a few other peeps just to have a good time. Society would prevent that through laws and punishment, of course the real thing stopping me is the hassle and chance I could get imprisoned and my own moral compass but it’s just a pithy example of where free will and society could intersect.

      There’s an infinite number of examples of how society curbs individual behaviors.

        Society is also enabling. Without society we would only have stone tools, at best.

        You gave a general answer. What about you? What do you want to do and what is holding you back?
