I think your title says it all 'does everyone WANT to be a photographer'.

Go on FB and look at the number of people who have photography pages and yes it would seem so, cause most of them still should be in the WANT category. Facebook is free, and therefore they can setup their 'business' with a few clicks and voila. It would be interesting to see how many of them have an ABN, registered business and take our public liability insurance, etc.

The future of photography will be a lot of dusty entry level DSLR's in cupboards around the world, or up for sale on E-Bay to the next gen of 'wannabes', and those that take the time and learn the skills needed, setup a 'proper' business and work hard will still be the professional photographers.

Most people own cars, and some dream of being a race car driver, but even though cars are everywhere, only a relative few make it to the top.
