No one is stopping people from making art, lazy people will use this to do things they want, but artists will make art because that's what they do.

All it means is that at art as a career is dead.

Guess we want everyone working in retail or something

Doesn't everyone want to be a creative? Turns out you gotta be able to afford it. I work for a living. If everyone worked for a living, I could afford some time and space to myself to do what I like with it. Unfortunately work supports art and people are trying to pass off their fun time as a contribution so I'm supporting them regardless. I'd rather everyone supported themselves so I can art without anyone else's input.

I don't like this, because one of the most used arguments in favor of capitalism is supposedly the free market and how you are allowed to make money doing what you like. If now it turns out that only a few things are classified as jobs then... where are the benefits of capitalism?

You don't make money doing what you like. You make money doing what your customers like. If you also like it, then all the better.
