Honestly? No one would accept such a fundamental change to our livelihoods. The dreamers want to believe that altruism would prevail and no one would need to “work” any longer because we would all aim to help everyone out.

Making sure that we all get ours, but there isn’t incentive without money is there? Money buys goods, but it also buys power. The thing people forget in the d*ck waving contest that is the ultra wealthy (Billionaires), is the power being the richest person holds. You gain influence with enough money and if you have more money than the next guy, then you hold more weight than they do.

Plus when you have so much wealth it literally doesn’t matter what you do with it, well what feels like the ultimate feeling? Giving it away? Or holding as much money as possibly to gain control over others?

Especially if you’re a sociopath or psychopath like it’s shown many in those high positions of power and wealth are.

So I don’t know what the solution is, but we are headed towards a cliff. There isn’t enough resources to last forever and we as humans have terrible abilities to predict our futures. It likely will come to a point where we no longer can just get by, when resources begin to diminish, when homelessness runs rampant and hunger grows. Eventually we will have some sort of dystopian future or collapse because the way we are chugging along pretty well guarantees it at some point.

So what would you replace it with?
