There's always a need for profit, otherwise you end up with Chinese ghost cities with millions of empty and rotting homes. They will also become a huge environmental catastrophe there quite soon.
Imagine there's no possessions.. I wonder if you can..
Yeah, I don't want to live in a stone age.
I'm not sure we could go back to the stone age, as a society. That would require collective amnesia. We can't simply forget electricity and wavefunctions, QSARs.
Mind you, some people are still living a stone age mindset.
There are other options than a single choice to regress.
The majority of the population doesn't even know ohm's law, what wave functions are you even talking about? Remove a bunch of engineers and the whole world will be back in stone age in no time.
Erwin Schroedingers wavefunctions for atomic orbitals. Yeah, I'm not so confident.
Another binary choice someone is inventing. Nobody said it all had to be socialized.
