There'd be little need for occupation in the medical field, education, food service, etc. People would still seek medical attention even if there's no threat to life. No fucking idea why people would stop desiring an education just because they're immortal. Hell, if you lived forever, wouldn't your desire to learn stuff increase? SailorGoon posted... Whatll drive people to work? They don't need food to survive. I said they won't die, not that they won't feel any discomfort ever again. You go longer than a day without eating, you're gonna be pretty damn hungry without dying lol. SailorGoon posted... People might eventually tire of living. See Rule #5. SailorGoon posted... There'd be no means to continue civilization. Lol what? 1. Still, a lot of jobs would be lost. The need isn't really there. Especially considering it's cheaper to just storm through the issues and heal naturally for free. 2. Okay but consider people who teach grades k - 12. They'd be SOL. Again, there's little drive for everyone to go to school. Immortality would definitely take away from the drive. I mean, they could learn tomorrow. They got all the time in the world. The point is, working in education isn't secure because you won't have a constant rotation of students. 3. Still, food isn't a necessity. You know people are gonna go ahead and save a buck where they can. There's no threat to not eating or drinking. It just all falls back on adding to the lack of drive. 4. Not what I meant. I saw rule 5. As in people who want to die will die. There will be nobody to replace them and humanity will be on a constant decline. Hence the whole no means. As you can't replace the dead. The old will stay old. The weak will stay weak. --- CE in a nutshell: https://imgtc.com/i/ApLTn8w.gif <cite>SailorGoon posted [p:908262305] in Scenario: ...
