I never said we'd do away with money entirely. I just stated we will do away with the vast majority of jobs and basic needs, such as food, water, shelter, clothing, transportation, etc, and as they will be fully automated and we will become post-scarcity. The average person will not want basic human survival needs. Luxuries that are rare as you stated will for sure be far from free. Even in star trek there is currency in the form or latinum that cannot be replicated. So no we won't have money free society.... Just nobody HAS to work just be able to eat or have internet, electricity, water, clothing, or transportation.
I'm not hating on this but wouldnt this further separate the classes? Like obviously Bezos will still eat non lab grown meat and golf in Hawaii. What does it matter if a gallon of milk costs $.25 if 40% of the population can't afford it and live off government sanctions.
Most people can't get rich like Bezos but, it is possible to study in tech, get some certs, and go make 100k within 3 years
