Under the current system “productivity” means making lots of money for your boss. If you work a job that’s valuable to society like being a teacher you still don’t get paid as much. Or if you’re an artist or you aren’t capable of working 40 hours a week you’re seen as a less productive member of society.
Being a valued member of society shouldn’t be based on working two full time jobs because if you can afford to pay all your bills and buy a nice car and house then that’s proof of your success.
what should it be tied to?
Making things better for the community according to your ability to do so.
Right, which is productivity and wealth since that means you are self reliant or can help those who are not
Pretty sure that falls under the “productivity” umbrella, lol.
