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

We have quite limited facility space for organics farms, though, limiting the AMOUNT of that infinite resource we can get each month.

Can we build domed greenhouse on desert?
make fresh water from ocean?

plants can glow in space station, a complete recycle re-use enviornment.

plants can glow in basement too.

Commonly done throughout the middle east and on tropical islands. Hydroponically grown, from desalinated seawater, in greenhouses, there is plenty of sand, which is better for hydroponics anyway.

It is expensive, and these people (for some Middle East countries, anyway) have got the most ready cash of any contemporary gov't.

But it hardly provides sufficent quantities of basic foodstuffs. Only luxuries and cash crops really.

Hydroponics is something of a hobby of mine. Won't even feed me, but I do it anyway.

Collapse? No. Alter significantly? Yes. Continue to work? Probably.

does infinite resource = infinite money?
why do we need money if everyone get infinite of anything? economy based on money.

The point would be, who could make something from the recourses... Or can you find shoes in the trees in your world? ??? Someone has to make a product from the raw materials. That means that that those people or company controls the industry... so not much would change, maybe things will become a little cheaper, cause the raw materials are for "free" (if they are)... but i doubt that greed rules us all.

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!!

People capture other planets, cause they are afraid the other would capture them... survival of the fittest. Or they want to make sure that the human race survives... (in events like rocks from space or diseases etc..)

Does that means infinite foods?
enoguh food for everyone on Earth?

There is more then enough food on the earth to feed all 6 billion + people on the globe. It's just that the food isn't distributed in the right proportions in order for all to be fed. Some countries are able to grow food alot better then others. And thus the countries that grow food better end up being well fed when compared to the other countries.

As far as living space on the earth goes. There is also in this regard more then enough land for everyone. I read somewhere that there is enough land right now on the earth to give every person on the face of the earth 1 acre of land. That is every person. And that is not considering that there are families. Say you have an average of 4 in a family. And you just keep 1 of your 4 acres. All of a sudden you have 3 extra acres that you can support 3 more families on.

"I read somewhere that there is enough land right now on the earth to give every person on the face of the earth 1 acre of land."

Such studies ussually conviently ignore the land that is a hellhole or totally useless (or both).

Who wants dibs on that one acre near the south pole?

I hope somewhere out there, must be some good people who will make and give free shoes and food for everyone.
Production line, robotic and computer can take care a lot of things.
Who will build that production line or computer? I hope someone will.
Does that mean engineer and technician still need to work?
Do we need a super computer to build a pair of shoe?

Who care it's expensive or not when infinite resource?
