With absence of money as the main ‘power’ it’s your deeds that are the only thing left to define the extra exclusive things like apartments, experiences, etc.
And that is the thing, afaik all studies & experiments concluded that people start being productive regardless. It’s not “out of boredom”. Its just something to do. Sure, not everything benefits everyone, but imagine the impact of all the eg artist stuck flipping burgers. They would seem ‘unproductive’ just “laying about” until they produce a pice the whole world recognizes as something special (and not just because of the marketing budget).
Basically no one just stays still doing nothing, definitely not a significant margin. Same with animals, at the very least they will play.
Eg, could you imagine your life without long-term producing/making/planning something?
My point exactly. I could quite easily imagine my life without ever building a house. And so could everyone else. So your argument doesn’t really work.

Yes, I absolutely could. Why not?
Not even thinking? Reading books? Talking to people?
None of these activities produce anything
Don’t they? Imagine people thinking a bit more, having free time, etc - the effects on politics, local quality of living, and so on.
I would much rather live in a neighborhood of people reading books all day vs working in a factory all day.
Reading books doesn’t build houses
Nope. Building houses builds houses.

I don’t really see how you can speak for everyone.
