...if there are enough wealth in this world to allow everybody to get reasonably good food, clothes, a place to live in, essential medicine, books and televisions and computers, and in general all sorts of mass-produced modern conveniences, without having to constantly worry about losing everything in case someone falls ill or loses a job. After all, we do have huge factories churning out these necessities at an incredible speed and much, much lower cost than before. And the hard-working people can get more interesting jobs with more free time, while the lazy ones just get to do the boring stuff nine hours a day and 28 days a week for six months. This lack of freedom should be enough disincentive for them.
