Default logical conclusion

I am interested in a refutation of what Brickman says in reply to this blog post. If we take Steve's thesis to a logical conclusion, it means in a "perfectly conscious populace", there would not be anyone who wants to clean toilets, floors or pour concrete-- so who is going to take care of these necessary functions ? Or is the underlying thesis here that the human race will always be divided by "class" into -- the "smart conscious" people and the "intellectually challenged"/un-smart/un-conscious people ? If so, then this thesis should be made clear in the argument.
