Money trouble
We have not yet exhausted the utility of markets or, unfortunately, of the habits of mind which allow them to work effectively. But in any good future we will be ever more free of the constraints of scarcity and have ever less need of markets to do the work of allocating limited resources. In that world we’re still going to need to decide what to do with ourselves, and we will still need to get along with each other. Other-regarding ethical codes offer the most humane and free mechanism for shaping our choices in a world like that. It seems unwise to neglect the preservation of our capacity for such things. We may find ourselves in a world of abundance, completely unable to enjoy it.
