There are definitely jobs that I’d like to do to help society or at least my local community, but the way we work in the current system makes me not want to do any of them. Sometimes, people ask questions like, “Who would clean the sewers / collect garbage / … in a non-capitalist society (i.e. a society without monetary incentives and without being forced to do anything)?” I’d do this kind of work. It’s just that doing it 40+ hours a week, in bad working conditions, and for a small wage is a huge turn-off. Doing anything 40 hours a week is a huge turn-off, and so is knowing that a large chunk of the value I produce goes straight to the owning class. Someone on tumblr(?) said that they don’t have a dream job but a dream community role, and I think that’s a great way to put it.
