There’s an almost unlimited amount of work to do. The elderly/children to care for, the art to be made, the research to be done, etc. Tractors freed up a huge amount of the world population to work on other things, current technology does the same.
The problem is that humans have made a system of tightly controlling what work gets valued, how much it gets paid, what should be done and gatekeeping qualifications/resources to be allowed to do things.
no there isn’t unlimited work we HAVE to do. we are just slaves of the system tightly controlling our work, so people can profit massively off of our work.
we can slow the fuck down and enjoy the amazing things we have created a lil more.
To cRazi_man’s point there is some work that does needs to be done in order to ensure everyone has food, water, shelter, healthcare, free of poison, etc.
However the vast majority of human labor does not go towards those goals and is instead dedicated to who can get the highest score in ‘slave games’ while that necessary work is grossly undermanned.
It’s not “unlimited” but holy shit is there a lot of damage from the last ~200 years that needs to be undone. Learning and teaching people to rest is a very important one.
