I go to the gym and mooch around town all day watching the world go by. Because that's what comes naturally to me.
Why should I be exempted from earning a living you ask? Because it ain't good for my mental health that's why.
If it were fun, it wouldn't be called a job. They pay you because you're doing something unpleasant. Find a job that's least damaging to your mental health, suck it up, and deal with it. If you want to reverse the mental health damage your job is doing, that's what alcohol and tobacco are for.
Government assistance ain't the answer, either. Unemployment will run out. Food stamps will run out. Then what? And you should have the decency not to mooch off your family and friends without contributing fairly in return. Of course, if you want to just beg on the street, then I rest my case. Just remember: you gotta have physical strength and social cunning to pull it off. Most aspies don't have those.
