    • what would our look like

    • if everyone were able to do what made them most happy

    • would all the different required work get done

    • would the trash get picked up

    • would the disabled be taken care of

    • would war, crime, greed & corruption not exist

    • or would the world be more chaotic & problematic than it is today

    • i believe a natural natural balance would emerge

    • because people tend to shift their values such that needs overshadow wants

    • especially in a model that operates under rules that provide more equality

    • it the trash begins to pile up in view

    • then the citizens will naturally move the problem issue up on the priority list

    • and what needs to get done will eventually get done

    • this hypothesis has implications for a supporting education system

    • it helps define the options for individuals to consider re their work

    • if garbage jobs are valued then there will be people interested in doing the work

    • and incentives will naturally exist

    • that will encourage people to pursue education

    • toward learning how to best accomplish the required work
