People have speculated for centuries about a future without work. Today is no
different, with academics, wnters, and act1v1sts once agam 1 that technology
is replacing human workers. Some imagine that the coming work-free world will be
defined by 2 : A few wealthy people will own all the capital, and the masses
will struggle in an impoverished wasteland.
A different and not mutually exclusive 3 holds that the future will be a
wasteland of a different sort, one 4 by purposelessness: Without jobs to give
their lives 5 , people will simply become lazy and depressed. 6 , today's

be a bit overblown. "Many jobs are boring, degrading, unhealthy, and a waste of
human potential," says John Danaher, a lecturer at the National University of

of their jobs. "When I come home from a hard day's work, I often feel 18 ,"
Danaher says, adding, "In a world in which I don't have to work, I might feel rather
different" perhaps different enough to throw himself 19 a hob by or a
passion project with the intensity usually reserved for 20 matters.
