There will always be those who simply oppose all forms of work. A doctor of medicine may enjoy his job in a competitive market, but in a technate he may be discouraged to see those around him working simple jobs, for the same energy credit.
There will be a shoratge of those who desire difficult jobs. If one becomes a medical doctor or chooses another field of equal difficulty, should he not recieve a kind of bonus or break? What will stop a generation of lazy workers from choosing only simple jobs. I know that self-fulfillment is not enough to propell one through medical school.
In a technate the jobs that are the most difficult are given shorter hours and less days per year. If this is true occupations like medical doctors will require many to work in order to supply service to citizens 24 hours per day, and 365 days per year. Sure there are those who choose difficult jobs because they enjoy the field, but the harder the job is, the more people there will need to be to work them. A doctor may only need o work 4 hours per day, 165 days per year. Whereas a simple job may require 6 hours per day and 200 days per year.
Most will choose simpler jobs whether it requires a longer work week or not. The average person wants a job that requires little or no thinking. Technocracy needs to solve this problem. Does not technocracy lack the same incentive as communism?
