To those of us who raised families this question is almost irrelevant.

We know why we worked and who benefited.

Ooooh, that is also a good question to explore. The instrumentality of working to support your family. But if you are a hired assassin or crack dealer, does raising your family off your earnings make it "good work"? I think reading Demon Copperhead this year also influenced my thinking on this question.

Glad you find it interesting because I think the joy you bring others definitely makes you someone who does good work, Tani!
