There's actual experiments that have been done on this and every experiment has said that people don't quit their jobs they carry on doing their jobs and they just have a better standard of living than the otherwise would have had.

It'd be really great if you could actually look this stuff up before making comments

Actually Manitoba Canada did one of the biggest experiments and the best that came out of it was productivity fell less than expected. So no your statement does not support that.

More so this post suggest more people would do things like art which is absolutely suggesting productivity will fall.

And seriously are you telling me you wouldn't retire earlier if you were paid a significant amount over your lifetime? I can bs on people working just as hard if they didn't have to.
