Humans are pretty clever, so we'll figure it out. Humans are also pretty lazy, so we won't figure it out until we have to.

A pure captialistic issue.

And something people mention without mentioning everything else.

The existing system 'worked' because we grew from a few million to 8 Billion. If we 'stagnate' at 8, its no longer sustainable, therefore it was never sustainable if its only sustainable with constent growth.

Nonetheless, automatisation is not stopping anyway. We will solve a lot of theese problems with robots and ai. The bigger the problem, the bigger the pressure.

Yes, let's make babies to perpetuate an unsustainable system that relies on mythical infinite growth.

Nothing to see here.

When i look at most people what they do when they retire, it doesn't feel like most people actually have a good strategy for it anyway.

Less work, longer work, using more and leaving without a dime in the pocket sounds a lot better.

That might be preferable to rotting in an old age home with dementia.

That sounds like a rational strategy to me.

Counting on a retirement takes faith.

If the society is built upon the assumption of its own infinite growth in terms of population—an assumption which is very blatantly nonsensical—then maybe it deserves to break down.

Tax AI and we let the bullshit jobs die.
