    Yes and no. I think the argument is to allow those to reach their full capabilities by removing necessities from the current economic model. Even more so when there’s enough to go around for everyone and still have those that do more to get luxuries. We have poor and starving people in the world because someone wants it that way, and it personally benefits those in power. I like the Star Trek example. All poverty had been solved by simply just providing everyone’s basic needs. Those that want more “work” for it but doesn’t make an individual who wants to live a simple life less deserving of food, water, and shelter. We currently create enough to provide this for every human but simply choose not to. And that level of greed when you are not the one at the top creates that feeling of running on a treadmill
