We can ensure adequate supply of basic necessities... to the standard of the 1960's (food choices and availability, houses, cars, medical care, entertainment options etc). Problem is that someone living 1960's lifestyle would be considered poor today. And if old people realize that they are going to have a "poor lifestyle" in their retirement, a lot of political problems will follow.
- silverquiet 2y agoI don’t really understand why we would be limited to the 60’s. My house was actually built in the 50’s though. It’s think a modern car built with 60’s amenities but modern engine management and design could be crazy efficient and affordable; I’d be a buyer there for sure. And obesity was much lower back then, so it hardly sounds like the food situation was bad. I guess the problem for me is that I live a fairly poor lifestyle already and actually rather enjoy it, so it’s hard for me to imagine it as such a problem.
