>Yet you internalized a belief that we have to do it [keep laboring] when so much of the labor it would produce more of is already abundant. Why?
If there is so much abundance and labor isn't needed, why is almost every country on Earth currently experiencing food inflation? Abundance would mean prices go down, not up. We would need fewer farmers, not more.
Before you say it's being caused by corporate greed and price gouging, this is why I said globally. If for example Vietnam locally produces rice, and it's not even a capitalist country, there shouldn't be rice inflation there. Yet there is, and rice farmers in Vietnam aren't retiring because human labor and rice are so abundant.
Why pretend that just because some things have become abundant with technology, we can make society wide proclamations about labor no longer being needed?
