I would either give medical school a try or I don’t know, I would really like to be involved in re-education, finding ways to de-chudify and de-libify people without bringing them to physical or emotional harm. Just helping people learn would be cool too. But obviously if the workers want me working in a mine, that’s fine with me as well.
Real talk, I think there are some people so fundamentally traumatized by capitalism that there may have to be huge groups of them just not working or working very, very casually and otherwise not “contributing.” And, like, getting therepy and re-education.
I also think there will be a lot of peoples who will be doing cultural reclamation, climate mitigation projects that would be seen as more negative value. Like dudes whose job it is is to maintain a forest or wetland and coppice trees to bury them down below as a carbon sequestration thing.
Personally, I’d be fine with doing what I’m doing now. Construction and dry wall. I mainly just hate my boss not the actual work.
This is a real thing. Its the difference between the official “unemployment” numbers and the number of working age people who don’t work. The criteria for “unemployment” are cooked in a specific way to get that value, and a lot of people who potentially could work are excluded.

Interesting, yeah I know labor force participation isn’t 100% but I also think we might see a drop in that rate (if it’s something we’ll even measure for whatever reason) in the decades following revolution. Because I think there will be a lot of otherwise physically healthy adults that really just can’t work, I’d consider them having an official pension due to their involuntary service in the class war and especially when we were losing…
