OT: What if we live in a infinite resources world like in SE4?

[dreamplace]

What if we live in a infinite resources world like in SE4?

In a SE4 normal game, each planet will generate infinite resources.
Why do races need to capture others planets and start a war if everyone get infinite resources on a single planets? everyone know that war will use up a lot of resources!!

Imagine someday, people can use solar power be the source of energy?
what will happen?

I'm not scientist, someone please tell me,
Does infinite energy = infinite resource?
Can we use energy to make things? (change the molecule?)

Because economy is based on "Everyone share limited resource", will our economic collapse in a infinite resoruce world?
Will our scientists continue to find out / discovery new thing after that?
or no one will work because we had unlimited resource?

What if not everyone on Earth can get unlimited resource?
Will they share this technology to everyone since they will not missing something?
"infinite divided by any number still equal infinite"?!

I always wonder why scientists or government do not input more funding in the research of solar power or other re-usable energy.....

Those are the questions I want answer and give someone to think....

Thank you for you time...

Happy Chinese New Year!
