You've succinctly described Marx's concept of worker alienation, a valid issue of workers seeing little purpose in their labour because it generates no immediate value in their own lives. Naturally, being an autistic, unhygienic NEET who lived off the largesse of others and hated the fact that he had to pay rent on his rooms, his answer to this was overthrow of every aspect of the current social order and its replacement with a formless, utopian blancmange of "free money and no landlords and sex whenever I want it!"
Well, it's a bit more complex than that, but that's the gist of it.
