'its not like on earth, In fact i cant think of a single decision i have made yet this week that was critical to my immediate survival. Hell i stayed in the bed almost ALL day Sunday for no other reason than just because i felt like it, yet despite that... it was still a 4 minute drive to the grocery store where i could instantly purchase any number of awesome foods to eat without any concern as to how much was on the shelf and i didnt have to feed the chickens and raise them from birth just so i could savor the scrambled eggs i had for breakfast. I didnt have to cut the firewood im burning right now or go outside and maintain or repair intricate equipment to grant me enough electricity to write this post before something else breaks down or fails or needs tweaking in order for me to keep living'
But you (me too!) are in the minority on the planet...for the majority of the world most people ARE feeding the chickens, cutting firewood, and making decisions critical to their daily survival...your description of the drudgery of life on Mars is EXACTLY like life on Earth...
