A video on TikTok went viral after its creator claimed the sole reason people work is to make money, and viewers are chiming in.

Ginny Hogan (@ginnyhogan) said in her nine second video as she was walking down the street:

"I do think that literally the craziest thing any boss ever does is assume that their employees are working for them for any reason other than money."

She captioned the post:

“Truly psychotic #fyp #capitalism"
