We're animals, the brain wants power and control and is not just a statistical machines counting up our wealth. Dogs in cages aren't happy either despite not having to work for their meals like their ancestors.
You throw around terms like "imaginationless" while ranting that "material comfort" is all anyone should be expected to find interesting in life? When you confuse non-consecutive "free time" with consecutive years of leisure and power? Please.
My claim is that we have the means, now, that we can build a better society, with happier people, if we try. We have staggering abilities that people of the past did not. Let's fucking use them better. You're telling me to give up and be a good happy little peon. Raise your sights.
