I agree with this. I'd love to live in a world where our basic living needs (housing, food, clothing, healthcare, etc.) are met, and so every person feels safe and comfortable exploring play and creativity to the extent they desire.

Is this aspirational and unrealistic? Absolutely! I'm not claiming this is something we can do today, but I think it's good to think about where we might like to go.

I already live in this world. I do some work for other people for a few hours a day, and in exchange I have housing, food, clothing, healthcare, etc.

Oh, were these things supposed to materialize for me for free with no effort on my part? Well, I suppose there's always prison, but I'd rather not.
