If only there was a way to encourage people to do things besides forcing them.
It is hard to beat the current system that encourages people to work a single profession for ~30 years 5 days a week in order to foster expertise. And somehow, (rightly or not) manages to make most of them feel like they do it willingly.
The previous system beat it; fostering expertise across generations by inheriting your job from your dad. And they thought they were free too.
Ah yes, good old fear.
