Well regardless of how it works for me, people's incomes are not function of spending or consumption; so income is not a variable that can be adjusted typically against spending.

An independent electrician can take on an extra job to make more income, or less work if they don't need it. Is that not a variable that can be adjusted?

I agree that most people aren't in that situation and they're dependent on a specific employer giving them work, but it's not an impossible situation.
