I think robots can do the making of big screen TV's. And robots will work 24/7 without even "a bowl of soup and a mud wattle hovel." And big screen
TV's can be made by any whose bliss it is to make big screen TV's (not many, I think...)
I won't. I'll sit on my rump and watch the free TV and laugh at the idiots working for nothing.
I would be traveling and creating, Myself. And the only "idiots" working will be working because it is Their bliss, being paid in appreciation, name
recognition, gratefulness, and Self satisfaction (think Linux, if You doubt People would work for these payments). You just aren't seeing it, are
You, Rock? Robots for any job no One wants to do. ALL of Us with all the food We want, and the houses We choose (which will float in the sky for
many of Us, with the gravity control of electrogravitics).
Products made to last, rather than made cheaply so as to break and require another purchase - to make a profit. How much waste can We be rid of in
making just THAT change?
Food distributed by need and not profit - the hundreds of thousands of TONS of food a MONTH supermarkets throw out now will be eaten when it's
fresh and People will not go hungry.
There is so much more.
On topic, markets will be defined by solving problems and Betterment, not money and profit.
