    It does but arbeit macht frei was a nazi slogan and tbh it goes well for the bootstraps folks: "you just need to work harder for a better life" essentially.

    Annoyingly, Nazis stole each one of their slogans. “Arbeit macht frei” is from the 1873 novel by Lorenz Diefenbach, in which gamblers and fraudsters find the path to virtue through labour, alluding to John 8:31–32.
