These are all things that people enjoy doing though, and there is a certain amount of glory in doing them.
Do you think your plumber or electrician would be willing to work for free?

Yes, of course. If you lived in a society where everyone contributed their labor freely in return for access to all of the fruits of the labour of others, wouldn't you be happy to work as a plumber or an electrician in that society? We work to pay our bills, but if we didn't have bills, if everyone was just provided for, by default, why would you need to be paid to work? Why wouldn't you want to give back to a system that gives so much benefits to you?
