In the process of deconstructing work "ethics" and capitalist "productivity", it's important to replace it with something more meaningful than individualism or hedonism. While it's fine to do nothing, fine to do things you enjoy regardless of whether they make profit for someone else, it's also good to do things that better yourself, others, and society (even if that concept has been co-opted and corrupted by the profit motive). I see too many people "escape" the rat race either by finding people to exploit or sinking into escapism like [more than a reasonable amount of] video games or drugs or whatnot.
