This is almost correct.
>A society with prosperity but lacking athletic, artistic and intellectual pursuits will devolve into a crowd of purposeless humans living for the pleasures of the moment.
I would change this to
>A society with prosperity but lacking family and reproductive pursuits will devolve into a crowd of purposeless humans living for the pleasures of the moment.
- shrimp_emoji 2y agoThis is almost correct. >A society with prosperity but lacking family and reproductive pursuits will devolve into a crowd of purposeless humans living for the pleasures of the moment. I would change this to >A society with prosperity and whose universal revealed preference across all cultures is to use that prosperity to buy other crap that beats dealing with family and reproductive pursuits will devolve into a crowd of purposeless humans living for the pleasures of the moment.
