Every economic system we’ve ever observed had jobs. Communism, socialism, feudalism, tribalism… Human civilization has and probably will always have roles which are essentially responsibilities for ensuring some good or service is consistently available to the community. That’s a job in my book, regardless of the economic system.

Doesn't even need to be a formal economic system. I can pretty much guarantee that a random paleolithic tribe had some people who were better hunters, people who gathered edibles, leaders, etc.

What is interesting in these threads is that we as humans cannot seem to even imagine a post work society, much less how we'd ever accomplish one.
