Why would that be? That’s a fallacy. We have the ability to produce far more than everyone would need to live a pretty abundant life.

- core-questions 7y agoMaybe, but surely by now you can see that sustainability is a factor here. Produce how much, for how long? Is simply enabling unending consumerism until we run out of resources to be the highest calling of our species? Seems almost more depressing than the current dystopia to believe that we should keep it going for even longer just to ensure everyone gets an equal chance to consume their pile of fried meat.
