&gt;I love this statement, but the need to eat has been driving human beings for a very long time. It would be a truly profound statement if we could prove this.<p>You could look to many European countries for an answer. The unemployed receive welfare, now tell me how many of those are still motivated enough to do anything when there&#x27;s no fear of hunger. Are these people happy receiving enough welfare to live a modest life, or do they strive to do more?
