   imagine a world where instead of bosses and customers yelling at employees to get the job done how and when they want it or they won't get paid, everyone is on equal terms and people have to wait patiently for others to complete work for them. and be grateful and kind, or they will no longer be served (or at least get lousy service)

      money is inherently toxic as it introduces inequality by design, and encourages us to manipulate each other to get what we want or at the very least survive

         even when everyone is given the same amount of money to start off with, everyone has different needs like healthcare, dietary restrictions, trauma that they need to account for, different cultures and lifestyles, natural disasters and accidents occur, etc

         and that's not even getting into wage inequality where we value certain workers over others, especially when we often pay people with cushier/easier jobs, more money.

            people should be working because they want to, because they already have enough incentive to do a job, or it's seriously not worth doing.

            i'd honestly stop eating at fast food places if it meant all the workers could live more happy, fulfilling lives instead of catering to my selfish desires.

            no work is worth it if it's not fulfilling to those doing it

               we don't need to have money to reward people for their jobs, we can simply just share all the shit we produce and the resources we're currently hoarding and instead let everyone do the job that makes them happy, rather than the job that barely keeps them alive.

               we have more than enough of everything to go around, there is no reason to hide all of life behind a paywall.
