I don’t believe the competitive nature of human beings will ever allow a utopian future. Such as Star Trek for example, where people work only to better themselves and the rest of humanity.

In Star Trek money is abolished. I think that is going too far but there’s going to be some big changes and this is unprecedented

Work is required as part of the human condition. Idle hands are a threat to a safe and stable society. That said, single payor health care and universal basic income are likely to define future political debate if AI becomes as pervasive as predicted. So should conservatives stick their head in the sand and scream no? Or do conservatives need to somehow get ahead of the curve to be able to shape the narrative and design of the programs that may be inevitable ?
