When every product and service and the design of future design become like the air we breathe, so plentiful that no one needs to pay for it, however precious they may be, there will be no job, no exchange, no currency, no need for possessions, and no obsession to accumulate things. Our mind will be finally free to imagine something meaningful, without trapping ourselves in wants, without riding on the slave labor of others, without exploiting our environment to an inevitable extinction.

Yes, consider how much less we will need if we don't have to work. We'll need far less property.

It's a nice dream but we are very far from that. This kid is going to have a full career and grow old before that happens. Best for them to go to school.

I been waiting on the day for awhile. Most ppl worried about their jobs but I'm looking further ahead and trying to decide which planet I'm gonna party on during weekends.

Sounds silly but in the long run it seems my concerns are more meaningful than worrying about something that'll eventually be automated
