Continuing contrasting ideas between me and liberals.
I wouldn't call a "slob" or a "freeloader" a person who stops working in order to take care of their family or focus on their passion. Or one who helps others, or needs help. Or who is sick, or suffers from burnout. Or even one who does not work, because they don't want to waste their life on stuff that's useless and pointless in the best case, and openly harmful in the worst case. Labor is not a goal unto itself, career is not some kind of fundamental value that defines a human.
The true "slobs and freeloaders" are capitalists. Bankers, property developers, rentiers, middlepeople, speculators, marketing people… Shortly: people who don't do anything truly creative, or useful. People who excel at navigating the capitalistic world and working their way up, both materially and formally. People for whom labor is a goal unto itself, and at the cost of others. People pushing this world into doom.
