    You should. We’re not cave people, it’s the 21st century. We can provide for everyone easily.

      We can provide shitty cheap unhealthy food to everyone sure. It wouldn’t be easy but yeah we could probably do that. But we absolutely would not be able to give people the kind of food they actually need.

        Yes we would. And if we can’t, the cheap food should be free.

          It should be sure. But that’s not our reality. Even if you take away monetary value things still hold more practical value. Try collecting and making food for 20 people. Go outside and find all that or grow it or whatever you have to do to get it tell me how long it’s you and how difficult it was to do. Now multiply that effort to 8 billion people.

            I will play along with your experiment if you give me control of the government. That seems only fair, since we’re talking about the government providing for everyone.
