advancements in technology and medicine

I live in a modern, progressive and financially strong country. And yet, last week they closed hospitals to elective surgery in my State (South Australia) because there were no hospital beds available and they were overloaded, across the entire state. That doesn't sound very advanced to me.

As for technology...yeah, it's a great advancement, soon no will have be able to work as jobs for humans will be redundant. Wonderful huh?

Add the two together, no one dies prematurely and no jobs and what do we have? Overpopulation and starvation. Seems so great. I don't know how old you are but if you're under 30 years old you'll get to experience some of it first hand. I'll be gone, somewhere (hell probably) saying, I told you so.

That is one way to look at it. For the hospital issue, I see it as a lack of hospitals, and maybe overpopulation. As for losing jobs, I assume we'll have UBI and people can pursue their dreams. The robots would increase food production so starvation shouldn't be a big issue.
