A millennia or two from now, the money caused corruption will be a thing of the past.
The times (without money) will be a hell of a lot better than they are today.
People would be happy.
Human progression does take time - measured in an unknown numbers of years..
Soon, the term "full time" will be a TOTP(thing of the past).
What we need is more meshing of "boss" and worker.....envison a symphony orchestra.....the flute player and the conductor..
Who is the "boss" .
The music listener - of course....aka "the public"
As to "40" or "30" .
I remember being able to accomplish as much in 6 hours as 8.
6 with a 20 minute break as opposed to 8 with an unpaid lunch and two breaks...
We need innovation....
Money is a physical means of transferring value and resources in a form easily used by all, unlike bartering. Since there will always be things that people value and the need to distribute resources, then money or some analog of it will always exist. As long as there is a disparity in value of input, work performed, there will always be a disparity in the distribution of resources. Equal distribution of resources can only exist if the value of input is ignored. People are inherently competitive and many will never accept less productive people or low value workers to receive the same share of resources as highly productive or valued members of society. As long as there is limited resources and the concept of value, some form of our current system will always exists.
There will always be "bosses", even in a communal owned system, same as there will always be hourly workers. What you suggest has been tried many times and has always failed.
And your analogy of an orchestra is false. The conductor and the Flute player are not competing with each other for resources.
