All of those statements are frames for our astronomical & rising across-the-board material abundance. a) We have so much food and so little need for the human body to expend energy (cars, infrastructure, oil, etc) that it’s a public health crisis. b) We’d rather have $0 than see our neighbor get $10 while we get $5.
