  • Resources of all kinds-food, metals, you name it-are becoming more abundant over time.
    In fact, population growth increases abundance as more minds get to work solving scarcity.

      Again, access problem. China has nearly 2 billion people and not enough land (presumably) to supply enough food for all 2 billion. Trade would EASILY make up the deficit, if they weren't so stuck up their own ass that other countries tariff and tax the living hell out of anything they trade. China doesn't play well with others, and can't trade to make up the deficit because of it. This is not a space problem, it is an ACCESS problem. Earth has enough resources and room for easily DOUBLE our current population. It's not a resource problem, it's a distribution problem. Aka, ACCESS.

There is ocean water, fresh water, ice burgs, mountain snow. I'm not sure where you got the notion that the amount of water on the planet never changes, but that is incorrect and misses the point that if California, Nevada and Utah ran out of of water from the sources they are currently using, then where will Californians get the water to water all the crops they grow?

      Demand side economic policy babyyyyy! All we need to do is seek out the most efficient means of production possible but no, everything is about regulation and artificial restrictions to control supply and encourage demand for maximum profits. That is NOT capitalism. Capitalism has free markets with as little interference as necessary to preserve health and safety.
      You ask who is doing this? Our own governments. If there is a shortage in anything the market could and should be able to fill that demand - it's just math! The problem? The uncertainty caused by current western economic policy and regulation.
      Look at it this way: If we have the space and the materials and the workers to build homes, why is there a shortage of housing? Regulation of course. It can take years to jump through regulatory hurdles, to get approvals, permits, etc. Uncertainty in markets due to money printing, inflation, and regulation hurdles makes the cost of funding any kind of building project a risky venture. You're better off just buying newly created T-bills that have guaranteed returns - just the way they want it.
      So the regulations keep slowing down home building, the money printer runs, the prices of homes keeps rising, the T-bills keep being bought, and the cycle continues.
      Do you think they had these problems in early America? You would buy a plot of land and start building on it the next day if you wanted to.

      I’m also convinced our plummeting birth rates are partially by design. Our high schools and colleges are literally teaching students that having children is a bad thing, that abortion is the first and foremost priority for every woman, and that a person’s value is determined not by their merit or moral fortitude, nor even their lack of evil, but solely instead by their race and sexuality despite all other factors. They’re taught that bringing more white babies into the world is tantamount to evil, marrying to raise children is “perpetuating white supremacy”, and refusing to participate or encourage gay lifestyles over straight relationships is “genocide”. They’re taught that “saving the planet” is more important than saving the human race, and also that every animal species humans rely on for agriculture (food) should be led to extinction as well; “cows, sheep, chickens, goats, etc.” cause climate change with their “emissions” (farts), so they all need to be put down… meaning, over 90% of people in western countries would be required, under these regulations, so radically change their diet, and agriculture would either have to quadruple (razing forests for farmland, etc), or a great number of people would starve. (Newsflash; they’re already starving.)
      The problem with the world isn’t the resources; it’s management of those resources, at every level of every supply chain to varying degrees.
      Farmers are often unable to water crops because the state spends three months deciding whether they’re allowed to or not. State regulations are punishing the trucking industry, and executive orders straight from the top are driving fuel prices to prohibitive numbers. Container ships full of meat and produce have been left offshore for weeks or months, and even the containers themselves are often left in port, where everything rots before it’s permitted to be sent on its way. The education system is mass-producing young adults who can’t read, write, add, subtract, or commit to any kind of labor, all by design; they’re taught that learning any of those things, or working a full time job, is “oppression” and “perpetuating white supremacy”, as their teachers and professors are increasingly only interested in creating political activists. Our shelves are empty, in part because our president is essentially selling out to foreign countries; if it doesn’t come on a ship from China, he doesn’t want it in the stores.
      So, seems to me that all of this is by design to put pressures on civilization in hopes it’ll “shrink and adapt”, or that those in power are so invested in their own self-interests that they just don’t care if half the population starves. Or maybe both.

    We have a desalination plant..... it's rotting and we don't run it!
    It works great - but the power required to run it is too expensive so it rots.
    We payed for it, we built it, they won't run it. Now it's broken and unmaintained.
    This is why I say we have the ability to solve every problem if the energy wasn't prohibitively expensive.
    It's pure greed, there is no reason energy shouldn't be free and abundant.
    If it was, innovative people would find ways to use that free energy to solve LITERALLY every problem humanity faces.
    This concept becomes abundantly clear on outback stations.
    Set up your power first, then you can use that power to solve every other problem.
    Need water? No worries! You have power to pump it!
    Need a shelter? Hey, you have power to run tools and build one!
    Don't want combustion engines? Hey, give us the clean energy we will build equipment that uses that instead....easily!
    Its a matter of greed not technical abilities. We could easily do it if the top 1% wasn't SO greedy.

      "The total amount of food waste produced in the Unites States is estimated to be close to 103 million tons per year." There is abundant food everywhere. We just need to stop wasting it

      @@caymenmonday4843the problem isn’t waste, it’s intentional restriction for power. You could have a society were everyone has plenty and thus occasionally wastes, with no poverty problem. Modern poverty is a product of government restrictions on free trade. They simply artificially restrict people to prevent wealth from growing and spreading because it makes for a nice divide and conquer strategy.
