eventually, the stargates exsistence is going to have to come out. and when it does the world will no doubt change forever but is it in the way you thought it was going to be? i mena we all think that, provided the public takes it well, new technologies like matter converters and naquada generators and much much more will change life as we know it but have you ever thought about how earth will have to change to even accomadate new technology?
i mean society today is mainly motivated by money, however, the impact of introducing new technologies will dramatically change our main motivation as a society, for example, if the U.S. government built matter converter factories all over the U.S. and they started pumping out all of the essientals for people to survive as well as the luxurys like televisions and computers etc, and all of our power needs are met by naquada generators, and they gave everyone plenty of food and luxury items to live comfortably for free, since it doesnt cost anything to make the items, it would essientally shut down the economy and make money obsolete. we will have to find a new motivation as a sociey.
now im thinking that instead of working for money we would instead work doing something we like that benifits all society, like if you are an engineer you would work for the defence department designing ships to defend earth or if you want to teach, you would teach and in exchange for participating in society productivly, you will be given access to all you need to survive, thanks to the matter converters. we could even give some of the grunt work like mining to some highly advanced, but NOT sentiant, android or some other type of machines.
now if all of the major countries in the world did this, it would move earth towards a new era of prosperity and hopefully peace. now obviously we all cant just get along over night but hopefully eventually we'll all unite and move out into the galaxy as a united earth rather than divided because that would easily lead to a civil war and possibly end the future of the 5th race.
what do you think?
