return2ozmaIt's 2026, which tech did you realistically think we would have by now?
GiorgioPerlascaRealistically?
-
Housing that doesn’t cost a fortune
-
Healthcare that doesn’t bankrupt you
-
Food that’s both affordable and worth eating
None of it is futuristic. All of it feels further away than ever.
cRazi_manYour answer is something you want to force into the conversation, not what OP asked.
You’re not wrong, but that’s not the conversation man.
As it is written in the Śūraṅgama Sūtra:
It is like when someone points his finger at the moon to show it to someone else. Guided by the finger, that person should see the moon. If he looks at the finger instead and mistakes it for the moon, he loses not only the moon but the finger also. Why? It is because he mistakes the pointing finger for the bright moon.

Yeah, the reason we don’t have those isn’t technological. We could have it today if we collectively decided that we wanted it.
davelThat’s not tech, that’s policy. Technologically there are no holdups to this, capitalism just needs it to not be so
