Who builds the castles, if nobody works? Who makes the sculptures, if nobody works? Who plants the gardens, if nobody works?

This whole dystopia is predicated upon the idea that those things are not work.

OK, you work with computers because you love to work with computers, right? So?

I'll do the sculptures because I love to sculpture right. I'm not going to go plant the plants because I don't like to do that. I'm going to consider that work. Haha trust me, nobody wants to be in the office Pushing papers for another human being, they'd rather be in the garden. They'd rather be in the forest. They'd rather be in their yard, building a structure in the backyard. Nobody wants to be in the office building pushing papers.

It doesn't make sense for everyone to do the same types of work.

Different people should do different work and then use money to exchange their own efforts for the efforts of others. That's what money is for: storing up the time and energy expended during work, so that it can be traded.

As soon as you specialize and do the same thing over and over, it becomes work, because you will become so efficient that other people will pay you for it, rather than doing it themselves.

I like to work with computers and would fiddle around with them, as a hobby. I could not ever become efficient with it, if I were also planting a garden. But, if I am not planting a garden, WHAT DO I EAT? I have to eat the produce from someone else's garden. Which means someone else has to produce a surplus of produce. At that point, we are both working.
