    I’d seriously like to know a solution to how to get people to do the hard work. I just don’t have faith that enough would sign up for the hard/dangerous work. Like most, I wouldn’t balk at serving latte’s for free.

    Imo, there needs to be a reward for the harder work. But that introduces recording of the value contributed which leads to capitalism again. It’s like living under feudalism, knowing it’s wrong, but not having a solution.

      The idea that capitalism rewards the hardest working is ludacris, and communism being “Everyone gets the same everything” is a massive misconception.

      Let people go back to subsistence farming where they either grow it themselves, trade for it or get nothing, if forcing people to do menial work really is that important to you.

      Or just have machines do all the work.

        Do you know how many fingers are lost letting “machines do all the work”? You can’t just hand-wave that away (lol).

        People are behind every product you own. That’s why actual communes are a lot of work.

          Yeah, with automation and AI, that’s not going to be the case for much longer, and for menial work, that’s a good thing.
