Throughout history, the hedonic treadmill has always triumphed. Competition and envy conjure their own objects.
Even if you want to allege that the proverbial pie will become infinitely large, any one person’s slice is finite. However big my neighbor’s slice might be, I can strive to make mine even bigger.
Humans being humans, they will find something petty and pointless to compete socially for or even kill each other for despite being provided infinite physical abundance.
