I mean why would one person have higher needs than the rest? Arent all people equal? You said all homes would be the same, so i assume so would all taxes, and cost of goods, so again, how are needs determined? Does my need to collect stamps alter my salary?
So why become a dentist when a newspaper boy will have the same needs as the dentist? Why be a brain surgeon when a bike messenger has the same needs? What is the incentive to go through ten years plus of schooling only to have the same home, same car, same salary as a shoe salesman? Why bother?
Why be a teacher and go through daily aggravation, lots of school, high pressure, when you can have the same living, with no school, no pressure, no aggravation being just another office worker? Dont tell me for the glory of the common man, as that is just not true.

1, I cant keep just saying the same thing over and over. We do not expect people to be motivated by greed, they will be motivated to do jobs that they feel they have a calling towards, that they will find rewarding, and that they feel will contribute to society... just as today there will be career guidance, but people will be free to take any job which they are offered, by any enterprise.
2, salary which is paid according to need will be determined by things like family size, commitments, any special circumstance. I cannot write the entire constitution of a society that hasnt yet been created, because we must realise that the working class will make this society democratically at the time - but need will be determined by democratic bodies, and decisions of any nature an be disputed in public meetings and put to the vote.
