What would Happen if ( same wage regardless of Job )
 

I remember Jean Luke Pekard ( ooh i'm quoting Star Trek ) Saying something like. "Working for monetary gain ended Centuries ago back on earth, People work now as a means to improve themselves, and further the well being of Man"

Ok The government announces that everyone in the UK will now earn 300 quid a week, even those on the Dole Que, 80% of people i guess would be happy but why should the other 20% that are currently earning more than that continue to work in the UK?

Do you have any thoughts on why they should?

...:shocked: LOL

For instance it would break the connection between

Money & Power

Is this not a little bit like communism? I am NOT a wealth of knowledge in this area but wasn't that the philosophy behind it originally?

Yeh Communism didnt work...power corrupts

Then the world wouldnt work anymore.
Kids in school wouldnt take subjects which they needed, they would take subjects for fun, leading to there being no skilled workers working factories, manufacturers, bankers etc the world economy would collapse leaving the world to slowly die.

Nice.

I think most people work for monetary gain, as you need money to exist in a capitalist society.

Then you get in to communism and it hasn't worked on a large scale to date.
