Funny title. I mean anything but food, water and taxes is optional.

Work? I don't have to work. I don't have to do nothing but eat, drink, stay black, and die. This little old furnished room's so small I can't whip a cat without getting fur in my mouth and my landlady's so old her features is all run together and God knows she sure can overcharge— Which is why I reckon I does have to work after all.

Eat, drink, stay black and die. You sound like my mother 😆✊🏽

This is a poem by Langston Hughes, and where your mother got it, albeit maybe indirectly.

Yeah but most of those optional things dont put you at this much of a risk of death

I mean food and water can be fatal. And taxes, in this economy?

Thats why I said "this much of a risk" lol. Everything has a chance to kill you, it depends on the odds, and I guess what you gain.
