    While I agree with the mindset, I share the same view, some of your details are kinda…barbaric

    permanent private living space of at least 80sqft

    That’s the size where prison cells float around. Iirc there was a study done that concluded that for an average person to remain mentally healthy they need at least 3-400 sq ft per person. Allowances must be made for families and partners

    even if only some flavorless nutritional paste

    Shit, that’s been widely considered to be cruel and unusual punishment for prisoners. There’s a balance between “not even good enough for prisoners” and “Lobsters every night”

    if you have no ambition in life beyond sitting in that little room staring at the wall and eating soylent

    Yeaaa there’s plenty of other ways to entice people to work or to aspire. You don’t need to make people eat flavorless paste, just luxury material goods alone would be enough. Like a decent smartphone, games, attractions (amusement parks, circuses etc), electronics etc. Plus most people want to work anyways just to have something to do

    If we enacted your plan as-is, the suicide rate would skyrocket lol
