> Retirement homes.
Ok I love this as a sci-fi premise. Especially as a spiritual successor to Logan’s Run.
But how does this actually work? Who cares for these people? Are these retirees the opportunity young caregivers will seek?

- shiroiushi 2y agoRobots could do some of the care work, but some work will probably still need humans, like repairs and some medical work I would imagine. To do that, the colony would have to hire people to live there, for years at a time or more. Pay would probably need to be very high unless Earth has gotten really, really horrible.
