I'm gonna have to disagree with some of the things you said.
I don't have issue with work if you want to get a job you do that and that's great it's important for people in society to live the modern and luxurious lives we lead. I do however have issue with the importance society places on work because if you spend your life working then you likely won't enjoy the majority of your life (unless you love your job) and you argue that if people stopped working there'd be no way to shop, or provide electricity etc. but what's the point in having these luxuries if the people availing of them still spend most of their lives in misery.
Convenient access to nice food and fast broadband won't buy happiness so if that's the only reason we should work in jobs we hate then I think it's a bit of a raw deal. Now the fact that when people make criticisms about the school and work system the most common response is "yeah it's shit but that's just life" is nothing short of harrowing. Why not stand for your own life and live it as you'd love to live it.
It's not like people work all day long and do nothing.
People do enjoy, and that's what weekends and holidays are for. They just need to work at the same time. If you want to, well, you can go and travel and have fun on holidays. Plus, if you're working, you are not going to work all day long. You always get some time to relax in the afternoon and the evenings.
If you're at school, it's even better. You have summer holidays and winter holidays and stuff. That are all the time given to you to let you relax and have fun. Enough was given to you already.
In fact, according to real experiences from several people whom I know, if you really don't have work and just live, you'll get bored and become desperate to do something & work in two years.
Fuck the school system
