Does anybody actually want to work though? Or simply to have the cash on hand to pay for things they actually want.
Serious question ^^
I personally find it rewarding to finish tasks & make things... being employed to do so is a luxury, but i still don't want to have a job.
Observe the existence of free webcomics and you see your answer. An awful lot of people will put an awful lot of work into things that enthuse them.
Least-bad capitalist employment piggybacks off that. You get paid for stuff you mostly like.
An awful lot of employment just gets in the way.

Yeah... so, I'm coming to think of the difference as:
having a job = getting paid for spinning wheels you wouldn't other wise spin
working = doing things you enjoy, for a payoff.
By that metric... i guess i'd rather work, than have a job.
