    If I had to guess, it’s probably because for a lot of people being a NEET is depressing state of being. No direction or control over your life and you’re at the whims of whatever happens to your family, economically. People with nothing to look forward to tend to wig out over petty shit like one less tendie.

        True, there’s no reason to have everyone working at the level of automation we’ve reached, but some people think it’s the 1950s or something.
