Then it does seem to be an assessment of someone's ability. There are mentally disabled humans with similar levels of intelligence to the animals we exploit for food. They would therefore have a similar chance to cure or discover something. Why shouldn't they also be treated as property?

Well, no, I never said anything about not working. And that's the part I'm agreeing on you with. Humans have and forever will have to work.

But the point being is that we now work monetarily. We work for A literal physical substance that's now a necessity. We Need to it to have shelter, we need it to obtain food, we need it to obtain water etc..

But all of these human necessities are divinely free. You can go hunt your own food, you can go drink from a river, you can go and build your own shelter. And although living in a society gives convenience. Everything is ultimately free.
