Missing Link

So are you advocating a Field of Dreams type "If you do the work, they will pay you for it"? You go from identifying work, presumably doing it, and then having a job, i.e., getting paid. However, that completely glosses over how to monetize that work into a "job". That seems like a pretty big thing to gloss over when one of the central reasons people don't have jobs right now is a general lack of money. Saying that "irreplaceable workers eventually get paid" doesnt address the issue. Irreplacable works are already "placed"; they have a job and just need to keep it. That is a completely different issue than trying to get "placed" in the first place. Anybody can do work, getting people to pay for that work is the hard part. So how do you propose people go from doing work to getting paid for it?
