Until there is no more planet earth. Lol~

I’m spewing my thoughts today as our billionaires in the world are having a race to space. Sounds to me like they’re escaping the earth as we know it because it’s being seen as a lost cause for future generations to come.

I’m not someone that’s been aware of the problems of the planet or even the society that I live in and to be blunt, I don’t want to know. I really don’t want to even care. But I’m writing this today because I’ve found a huge pot hole in this life I’m living. And very much like our billionaires on their space race, I’m also avoiding the fixing of my own problems, the ones I have control over, and seeing the problems that I could fix elsewhere. hah. If only we shared similarities in monetary wealth as well right?

Because, MONEY, could fix all my problems. I’m being sarcastic here as you could have easily missed that in text.

I recently had to ask myself why I’m alive and what the reason of being alive was. I asked myself this because I’m a diagnosed schizoaffective person. You can look it up but you’ll never know my personal diagnosis and experiences unless you care to ask. Which you probably won’t but that’s ok. If I wanted you to know, I’d share it but in another post perhaps.

I bring this up, though, because I had a sudden “woke moose” moment and I reached out and asked my family and friends I have on facebook, about the possibilities of a society that existed where humans were provided with their basic necessities to live. Basic house, food and clothes. I only caught the attention of 2 people that dared to respond but I want to ask this question in a more public space.

It’s an interesting theory but I digress. I’d love to explore this topic more and I hope it triggers a spark of conversation between you and your friends and family as well. I’ll ask the same question in the exact words I put it in my facebook post:

Food for thought :

Is it possible to have a society where all your basic needs are guaranteed and provided for?

Basic housing, food, clothes, everything you would need to survive and live a normal life could be provided for free and anything else in life would be a luxury you’d have to work for.

It’s a bizarre idea & I can see people taking full advantage of this free system as they do nothing & not give anything back to the society that’s so giving but I just feel as human beings that have the chance to live life… We could do so much better.

Is it possible? Why, why not? What would happen if this was achieved, etc.
