This subject always makes me wonder if what happened to the sonic washing machine would happen to the replicator, as soon as someone invents it.

Would Capitalism allow the instrument of it's eventual demise to exist?

I mean, it does work Just not nearly as well as its proponents claim.

Turns out, as in basically everything else in existence, you have to strike a balance and can't just go YOLO on maxing out 1 economic philosophy, food, workout routine, recreational activity, work task, air conditioner knob direction, component of air, fundamental force, universal constant..

But somehow capitalism is the magic fix for all of society and any considering any sort of nuance/tweaking is far-left communist radicalism despite the fact that nobody actually supports getting rid of all regulations and everyone inherently understands that that would be a disaster.

Yeah, it has its strengths, but I don't think it's good for us long term.
