It's not obvious. Low birth rates are completely sustainable, you just kill anyone who can't afford to retire and can't work anymore, and society functions perfectly well.
We have machines that can do the work of 100 people in the past
I'm sure that we could make it work without killing anyone
We also consume bullshit at 100 times the rate. People will be unhappy to see that go away. But yes, we produce more than enough for everyone as is.
While the alternative is everyone who is unable to wotk is killed anyway by the apathy of the system?
We are doing what you are describing already, in the system we currently live in.
