And the pay warps the whole “have aspirations beyond those jobs” part, too, because in many cases those aspirations are based on a desire for greater financial security. Conversely, the jobs people usually aspire to are often sought out more for the pay than for their intrinsic value or enjoyability.

Aspirations to do what? Go on vacations? Have kids? Visit other countries? All those things can be provided to everyone under a socialist economic model. People can clean offices and also take nice vacations and attend university and have kids and enjoy nice things if we decouple those benefits from employment.
