Huh. It's funny, I think you hit on why it was so important to ME to stay in the workforce, back till disability irrevocably took me down.
And I guess since then... I dunno, I'm trying to find a third option, one besides, "my worth is my $" and "my worth is based entirely on my ability to fit in the local demographics." Something stronger and more resilient that can hold up to how our life's been going; so far we've been calling it our "root system."
We seem to be making some strides, at least! Though I'm not sure I'd call it anticapitalist. (In part because I'm still not entirely clear what capitalism IS.)
