Precisely... ideas like that would only work if everyone bought into it... but there will always be greed and corruption in the world, imo anyway.
The key feature about the truely classless world is while there may be nominally no formal incentives, there will always be opportunistic incentives in the form of the ability to withhold energy and effort from other in order to benefit oneself while escaping retribution.
So a truely classless system can't really avoid indirectly but structurally rewarding the opportunistic freeloading self-serving class, at the expense of the diligent hard working rest. If we must take the long Darwinian view, we might say in a truely classless system where everyone is exhorted to be selfless, the fittest would be the most cunningly selfish.
So you can see you idea society is instrinsically unstable and non-self perpetuating.
