I suggest that Brave New World would be an interesting read for you. The hierarchy of intelligence classes in there I think does hit at a real problem: most work in society is mindless.
- eru 18y agoBut on the other hand they talk about an Island where they tried to eliminate all mindless work - but the people got bored. They should have set up an Island without mindless works and only "Alphas".

- eru 18y agoOK, have to read it again.
- kaens 18y agoI've read Brave New World. And yeah, most work in society is mindless. Ideally, I don't think people should have to work at all anymore, but there are a whole lot of problems stopping that from happening. Really expanding on this stuff takes a lot of writing, I'm not quite up for it yet (but I'm working on it).
