Ugh. So many places in the world already have abundance that is hard to imagine; but that's only the case because of extreme hoarding of resources and wealth.

yes

I'm sure we could do all of these things if we weren't biased towards consolidating power into the hands of a few biased individuals.

Of course, I'm just quoting Fourth International Posadist rhetoric, but Posadas may have a point.

I can confidently say we won't do any of these things until we can kill capitalism and trends towards autocracy.

All of this can be yours for the low, low price of $19.99/month.

Capitalism.

I agree! We just need to kill capitalism for that to happen.

I’m especially cynical when it comes to the “cure all human diseases” part.

You want to manage a disease. Make it tolerable and survivable. That way, you’ve got a ~~patient~~ customer for life, and you can milk them for decades.

Edit: I’m talking from the point of view of an asshole capitalist, folks.
