Even if you think all the naysayers are “luddites”, do you really think it’s a great idea to have no backup plan beyond “whupps we all die or just go back to the Stone Age”?
People don’t want society to collapse. So if you think it’s something that people can prevent, feel comforted that everyone is trying to prevent it.
If these mechanisms you mention are in place and functioning, why is there, for example, such large growth of the economic inequality gap?
What makes you think people haven’t made back up plans?
Or are you saying government needs to do it for us?
History has shown us quite clearly what happens if governments, and not individuals, are responsible for finding employment.
They should all just find a way be set for life within the next 3 years, is this your proposal ?
I don’t think this 3 year timeline is realistic and pondering what we’re going to do in 20 years is unpredictable.
What’s a better alternative?
You might think that we are collectively responsible for solving climate change, and someone else might think that we are collectively responsible for ending the murder of unborn children via abortion or any number of other things.
So who gets to be the dictator of whom? If we are all going to live together in harmony, we have to be tolerant of diversity.
That doesn't take away any freedom from you to take responsibility. And it preserves other's freedom as well.
