Most people who have jobs do not work because they want to but because they are forced by economic circumstances. Should we abolish work?

It wouldn’t be such a bad idea to take laissez-faire all the way to workers. Abolish bullshit jobs but foster ones that are meaningful to people.
Well, if you're asking whether capitalism and economic necessities are the root of most of our problems, then my answer is a resounding yes.
As if non-capitalist system would get rid of shitty jobs and being forced to work.

Point in case - USSR where not working was a crime :)
