Imagine all the people / living for the dayThe top comment on hackernews really nailed it: most people cannot, as they have effectively been institutionalized. They cannot imagine a world without extrinsic motivation.
I suspect most would adapt if it became reality, as that’s what the Spanish anarchists during the Spanish civil war said happened when they abolished money in some areas.
There was still plenty of work to do (they were at war after all) but people were able to adapt to self motivate fairly quickly, even those with traditional worldviews.
I imagine this everyday!
