Yes, he should want to work, but I understand there is little point in killing yourself for little money, when the money won't even change your standard of living. For example, if you worked full time making 20K per year, and your husband was a billionaire, do you think working so hard would make sense? Of course not.
So there is some logic in what your husband is saying. That said, just because he is not working doesn't mean he should get a free ride. So if he decides not to work, would he be willing to do all the housework, including having meals ready for you when you got home, yardwork, etc.? I would hope so.
And would he spend his free time doing something constructive? Volunteering? Big Brother?
Learning a trade he might like? Education? There is no reason an adult should be spending his days being lazy and playing video games just because he has a working spouse making a good income.
But I do see little point in working a job you don't enjoy for a little money you don't need.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
