Could we be happy?

I do not know that we would become criminals, but we could become fat and lazy. It also could give us enough free time to practice our creativity, and wouldn't that be nice. I would rather have the story end that way, with a community of creators and artists.

This has been a subject that has been around for many years, I read it when I was a kid and into science fiction. I would hope that humans would become more productive not less is they has no worries about obtaining the basic needs in life.

You would want a better machine. Greed cannot be placated and fed it grows - this is wisdom all the best urban

If there is such a machine that would produce anything that we want, then we would not be needing to trust God to provide for us, to take care of us when we are sick, to answer our prayers and so on. About the question if man would be more evil if this machine ever existed, well it will only get people to be more greedy and selfish and in short, more self centered ,arrogant and brutal because they won't show any mercy. Whatever the ending would be, it will never be good for me because it elevates man not God. This is my opinion and the word happiness for me would be based for eternity not of what I live here on earth which is only temporary. Happy Mylotting.

This interview has, of course, been the single happiest experience of my entire adult life. But setting that aside, I'd have to say that I am especially happy when my husband and my children is happy.

I think it's terrible to have this machine. The more we get the more we lost. Nowadays, we have so many things, that parents do as much as they can to help their children, which makes them lazy, don't care about others. I always worried about this kind of situation.

I wouldn't want a machine getting everything for me. And I do believe that if that were the case that crime would go up because people would be bored. That is why most kids get into trouble now a days because they are bored. Personally I don't make six figures a year so I don't mind working for what I want. Sometimes I wish I had more but then I would want even more if I did. Some people just get too greedy and don't know what to do.

I think that would basically be the end of the human race. Humanity is defined by the struggle to exist and make life better, or that's what modern humanity is. You can tell what happens when that struggle is taken away by rich kids and such who oftentimes squander money and get into trouble because they don't have anything better that they have to do. I honestly think people would just deteriorate. They would figure that since they can get everything they want there's no need to work and the economies would all fall apart and go to crap. There would be no need for markets and currency and such. There would be no need to be socially active and interact with each other because those are both just means of getting what you need. It would be a complete de-evolution and reversal of everything up until this point and would most likely end up breaking down civilization.

I thin it would vary according to the individual. Some would get bored and commit crimes. Some would become lazy and decadent. But some would find ways to use their new leisure time creatively.
