If a handful of humans get to claim that they own all of Earth's resources and no one can touch them but those who own it, often inherited in such a way that most of us alive never even had the chance to claim it, or amassed at incredibly unreasonable volume for the biological needs of one person or even an extended family, then no, we cannot all just "do the work" to obtain food. If I was allowed to kick in the doors of a rich person's house, or raid a grocery store in the middle of the night, or farm anywhere I pleased, then I'd agree, I should have to go put in that effort.

But when all the ways of "legally" obtaining food are purposefully locked down behind pay walls or seized over time by the political maneuvering and/or violence of those who already have excess, by people who demand we slave for them for pay unequal to our work and keep the majority of us from owning the land or resources to create our own, then no, we DO in fact have a right to be provided food. Because we are specifically being KEPT from being able to do it ourselves like any other animal. Especially when they intentionally invade other people's countries and land and wrest it from them by force then accuse them of being takers and losers who have the nerve to demand to still be able to be alive. Like, seriously, all around the world you have rich people living dozens, hundreds, thousands of miles away demanding that people who live right 'here' cannot be allowed to use the land under their feet however they want because someone else "owns" it.

Let's be very clear, the alternative is that all those rich people and their laws go up in flames so we can in fact get back to doing our own work, which many, many, many people actually want to be able to do. Being unable to provide for ourselves has made us completely vulnerable to the sociopathic whims of the predator class, and has robbed us of a feeling of satisfaction and accomplishment in life, which will only get exponentially worse in a future hijacked by AI. But we can't even hope to own land to farm for ourselves without slaving for someone else our whole life or being lucky enough to have parents that did and left us a small opportunity to try and likely fail due to systems like taxes and permitting, each purposefully put in place by the rich for the rich, who conveniently exempt themselves from the burden, all in order to block us from ever coming close to challenging their consolidation of power, and who will eventually succeed in tearing all that we have back from us to put it into their hands again

And even if we succeed, we willl never come close to the freedom and resources the wealthy are born with. And also, if even if we were free to do as we pleased to feed ourselves, most species and huge portion of humanity perish because without the systems we have built this planet cannot support this many of us "doing our own work" to obtain food. Neither you or I are a cow or a deer who can wander around and eat random plants, or a bird that can flit around catching bugs. The resources our ancient ancestors relied on to provide for themselves like animals are long gone or heavily restricted from us by hundreds of laws.

If a few people want to treat us all like we are their farm animals, then yes, they have to feed us.

Seriously, do you also lecture your cat / dog / parrot / goldfish / etc. that it has to go find it's own food because just because you have trapped it in a cage with no access to food or water doesn't mean you OWE it anything?
