The dream society would be where we all just work less hours. Everyone can get a job but doesn't have to burn every workable hour of their life.

That's not the world our Overlords want for us. They want us to literally work ourselves to death making them richer than Gods as cheaply as possible, and then fall over into a convenient nearby pit and bury ourselves for their convenience.

This, for some reason makes too much sense. So much so that I’m curious if there is some sort of world wide conspiracy to not do this.

If more people were employed during less time, we would also need more administration.

Not to mention that there are at least two sectors where there can never be enough employees: medicine and education.
