There is only "enough" food if you enslave farmers and take their product.

Or just pay them like normal and stop throwing away most of what we buy from them.

[-] Terevos@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Pay? There's no 'pay' anything in a post-scarcity scenario. Nothing has to be paid for. If it's truly post-scarcity anyway.

[-] pomodoro_longbreak@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Sure that's one way to do it. How do you see it working?

[-] Terevos@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

I don't. There will always be scarcity unless there's some way to completely automate the entire process of farming and delivery, plus maintenance on all the equipment, plus all energy needs.

I don't really see that happening. At least not for 100 years or more.
