So… finite resources.
The answer is quite obviously sustainable energy resources and other practices?
The only reasons we still use non-renewable energy are that they are embedded so strongly in our infrastructures, they have been around for longer so are efficient and prolific, they are still making the people in power rich so they won’t want to change - e.g. the supply of limited resources is much easier to regulate in your favour, and our economy rewards short-sighted and desperate approaches to competition such that reckless measures are resorted to.
This all unravels once you consider those inevitable consequences that I numbered. With technology replacing the human element in the workplace, any human irresponsibility will be phased out, renewable energy technology will catch up with non-renewable, and changes to infrastructure will follow to accommodate this. Unsustainability will be replaced by sustainability whether or not the former has a chance to run out.
It anything UBI will enable us to find a balance without our finite resources.
There is no need for the incapable and unwilling to live?! Some super evil culling of the population by some communist global government?!
Forgive me for saying this sounds absolutely hysterical and unfounded. I don’t even know where to start with this one it’s so removed from reality - maybe it’s the exciting sensationalism of conspiracy-type media, but in reality the vast majority aren’t comfortable with the actual killing of real people and won’t let it happen, as history has proven - and with communication and availability of news and information like we have today, it’s going to be even harder to get genocide on familiar territory off the ground.
For one, as soon as religion has finally died out enough we’re much more likely to transition into genetic modification to prevent more unwilling and incapables from entering the world, and more prominently, as technology replaces all need for humans to work the unemployed will be everyone. What do you think we’ll all be killed off as each and everyone person becomes redundant until none of us are left?!
Some level-headed factual and logical explanation is going to be needed on your part for any your fears to be remotely feasible.
Everyone begins life motivated, all kids have energy, creativity and engage in activity. That’s where ambition comes from - it only fizzles out when restrictions like lack of money and opportunity wear you down. You’re pressured to leave behind work that you enjoy and are passionate about, to pursue “a proper job”. People just return to what they thought they weren’t supposed to do, but actually care about. The more necessary but undesirable stuff will be done by technology before anything else.
Again, your fears are unfounded.
