If you give everyone what they want, well, there’s not enough beachfront, pizza, makeup and recreational drugs for all. What people want in a consumption culture and what can be sustained are completely different.
I’d agree with the idea that targeted areas of restriction may be fruitful. But I think the real issue is expectations and ethics.
- hotpotamus 5y agoCouldn't you get the whole country high with a couple kilos of LSD or Fentanyl? Weed is called that for a reason as well. And pizza is about as cheap a food as can be. Seems like we're almost post scarcity on some things. Might need to go to VR for beachfront for all since that is scarce indeed.
