TikToker Sparks Debate After Claiming The Only Reason People Work Is To Make Money

A video on TikTok went viral after its creator claimed the sole reason people work is to make money, and viewers are chiming in.

Ginny Hogan (@ginnyhogan) said in her nine second video as she was walking down the street:

"I do think that literally the craziest thing any boss ever does is assume that their employees are working for them for any reason other than money."

She captioned the post:

“Truly psychotic #fyp #capitalism"

Many viewers agreed with Hogan that earning a paycheck in order to survive is their only purpose for working.

Others, however, expressed they truly enjoy their jobs and believe they are making a difference in the world.

For several, though, it's a combination of both.

But just about everyone could agree that if the money stopped, they would, too.
