There is a reason why I strongly agree Thanos should kill 50% of the population and why I am a huge Purge movie fan.
(Thanos should kill 50% every year!!)
First: I wanted to define "functional purpose".
An individual who has a functional purpose, if cease to exist, will cease society from functioning or resource catastrophic damage.
In the stone age, when humans are usually in small groups, they can shit in the water, kill as many animals as they can without damage the ecosystem, or get berries if they don't want to kill. Thus we can say humans functional purpose in the stone age is
a) goTo water source
b) hunt animals
c) collect/store food (berries etc.)
With the ever increasing population and depleting natural resources since the industrial revolution, the population has reached 7 (close to 8) billion people.**1
Now humans tend to clutter up into megacities, most cities consumption is massive enough that an economic collapse will make people dependent on the government for handouts. (Venezuela utopia cough cough **2) Don't worry US citizens, the US military has prepped against you in a similar Venezuela style collapse before the Trump win. **3
I am intrested in articles/studies pointing out energy/food/water independent countries. **4
Now after the industrial revolution, it's hard to tell what human's functional purpose is.
a) Infrastructure maintenance & Engineering (Civil Engineering, water/wastewater operator, electrician.....)
I would even argue architecture profession is bloated with "pretty art" that is non functional.
b) Agriculture
Extremely efficient industry that arguably got rid of alot of farmers due to automation.
c) Computer Science (Some fields)
Automate supply chains, statistics to make informed decisions, "Internet of things" systems to maintain infrastructure etc.
d) Warehousing, trucking, transportation etc.
Purposeless if cities are self sustaining.
e) ?????
BTW: If you AGREE/don't know how to argue against my proposition, what are current issues that requires solving by a mid degree Computer Systems college student?? (Stack, Queue, Tree, Graph etc.)
If you DISAGREE with my proposition, explain problems that require solving by doing massive amounts of work or requires future mathematical discovery.
(Don't mention P=NP computational complexity etc. I probably won't solve it within my lifetime, thus I serve no purpose.)
Yes, I am a healthcare occupation hater. Nurses/Doctors/Lawyers serve no functional purpose. A nurse or a doctor might save a grandmas life, but this results in her life EXTENDING, consuming more resources. Plagues usually don't eliminate sufficient population to cause resource catastrophic damage (100000 people die doesn't matter, society will recover.). Lawyers read a book all day, using inefficient means of delivering justice. While it's out of the scope of this CMV, I would argue that absolute truth is impossible and costs alot of money. Contributing to bloating this society with unnecessary occupation.
Unnecessary occupation example: NAIL TECHNICIAN, MICROBLADING, NURSE, DOCT3R, HEALTH CARE AIDE (trash pay too),

Food, water infrastructure can handle local population during economic collapse.
