DiscoStu Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 in 50 years we'll be eating lab grown food, or 3d printed food which is essentially just a splodge of chemicals designed to taste like a certain thing and possessing the functional chemistry to deliver the required nutrients to keep us alive long enough to slave for a a subsistence wage until we diefast food that is, there will still be "gourmet" food that only the elites can eat which basically is just naturally grown vegetables/meat (naturally farmed meat will become prohibitively expensive in the future only the 0.1% can afford to eat it) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThunderIdeal Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 with respect, i don't think so. we just happen to live somewhere that most of the proles are afforded an easy ride (for now). we'll probably eat shit just like everyone else in the 99%, if not more.

Distracted Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 I think people are willing-fully blind as to how much of our shit we make others eat. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sundrop Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 (edited) I think people are willing-fully blind as to how much of our shit we make others eat.especially when you think about how australia has one of the highest rates of emissions per capita, and with such a small population already its only going to get worse. the disadvantaged feel the brunt of climate change far more... we as a rich nation are shitting into the mouths of the global poor. and that is just considering the effect of man-made climate change alone....

ThunderIdeal Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 I think people are willing-fully blind as to how much of our shit we make others eat.ahhh, i agree with that. still, i don't think any of us gets a seat at the table when things go proper pear-shaped, which is all i was getting at. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
