The author should rather wish wage-based-work stops happening. It was exploitative and not a necessary alternative from the get-go, and gradually it becomes more silly as more and more is mechanized and automated. Now society starts struggles to create artificial work for people to do in exchange for a salary. Stop creating "jobs", start distributing products and services (and making it possible for people to pursue creative interests). But then... who am I preaching to? Most world societies are governed by rich privileged minorities, whose social position underpinned by wage-based-work (and the destitution of those who don't submit themselves to it).
