A jobless utopia doesn't even come close to passing a smell test economically, historically, or anthropologically. As evidence of another possibility, in the US, we are as rich as any polis has ever been, yet we barely have systems that support people who are disabled through no fault of their own. We let people die all the time because they cannot afford to continue to live. You think anyone in power is going to let you suck their tit just because you live in the same geographic area? They don't even pay equal taxes in the US today. Try living in another world for a bit: go to jail, go to a half way house, live on the streets. Hard mode: do it in a country that isn't developed. Ask anyone who has done any of those things if they believe in a "jobless utopia"? Euphoric social capitalists living in a very successful system shouldn't be relied upon for scrying the future for others. |
