Aside from status games, bear with me for a bit.
Some resources are finite. Right now, land and time are good examples. In this future, how is it determined how much land you have, and where?
- I-M-S 3y agoMany societies did not have a concept of owning land. If we're imagining a world without work, perhaps we should also try to imagine a world in which an individual cannot claim land as their private property. Especially is such claim rests on something arbitrary such as heredity.
- AnimalMuppet 3y agoPeople still want a roof over their heads. If they don't own the land, do they own the house? If so, do they have any control over the land that the house sits on? And if they don't own the house, then what determines who gets to live in each house?
- at_a_remove 3y agoSure, you can imagine it, but people are gonna want it. I mean, unless you want a generation of kids raised by robots and we expunge all records of private ownership from the historical record so the new generation doesn't get ideas. "I want to live there, on the coast." What does this society do about that? Really explore this concept, don't just wave it off. People are going to want things and not everyone will get them. And they'll invent ways to try to get what they want. And that'll be the re-invention of work.
