And ? Why the hate on billy bong pothead?

Goddamn it, you'd think the OP's name would give it away let alone you cautioning us. I assumed it was a rick roll

On the way home I'd think

He just followed Cleese in doing that.

I suspect developers are gonna stop developing.

That's what happened here in Australia and homes and condos (apartments) have gone from horrendously expensive to ridiculously horrendous expensive.

We don't build homes to house people either. Unlike say these guys

A perfectly private social media service could be constructed but it likely won't because there is no profit motive.

And here it is, that thing you said most likely won't be..

Even if it were, how many people would truly use it.

To be social, 3 people, maybe 5 is all you'd need.

As to proft motive, maybe you're not aware of FOSS?

Goto social ?

I quit at 35 and am now 58. My only regret was being too afraid to do it earlier.

How ? I long ago was able to to differentiate needs from wants.

I do own my own small house. Each year I have excess funds, some is rolled over and reinvested, some is donated to charity, because the small investments I do have earn way more then my needs.

I'd consider euthanasia if I had to return to work because of some unforseen reason, after deaades of freedom Arbeit macht frei is prison.

Why do they not want to ? Ego and or indoctrination mainly. (Work itself has worth for being work, power over others, you're an attention whore and fear obscurity, or some combination ). There's also a stigma with being retired.

Economists don't rrally think we need food.

Ignorance of systems has its way of plowing forward, juggernaut-like. Nordhaus has opined that agriculture is “the part of the economy that is sensitive to climate change,” but because it accounts for just 3 percent of national output, climate disruption of food production cannot produce a “very large effect on the U.S. economy.” It is unfortunate for his calculations that agriculture is the foundation on which the other 97 percent of GDP depends. Without food — strange that one needs to reiterate this — there is no economy, no society, no civilization. Yet Nordhaus treats agriculture as indifferently fungible.
