    In a better world machines would do the work and humans just would share the wealth and live life in peace.

      The thing is though, everyone needs to do something just for the satisfaction of not doing nothing.

        Due some special circunstances a few years ago I was one year without a job and without the need to find a job because I had my finances and laboral future secured. At no point I was without anything to do. I just did a bunch of personal projects that were not driven by money but for my own enjoyment and the need to create some things. Also did a lot of exercise and took on trekking.

        I could live all my life like that if I needn’t a job for sustaining myself.

        It’s only fools and the rich who pedal the narrative that a whole section of society would turn into lazy slobs, do nothing except watch TV.

          Some people would, but who cares? Oh no! You mean people are sitting in a home watching TV and being with each other? How incredibly horrible.

          I bet people would also be disgusting cretins and go see new places as well! Imagine the vile critters walking through the woods seeing nature without burning vacation days making the rich even richer!

        I wonder if there are ways for people to find meaningful things to do other than being forced to work in order to be housed and fed?
