"Wouldn't it be interesting to see what would happen if the basic necessities of life were met, without any effort?"

you are not looking at that which is in front of your nose

do you think car-jackers eat them ?
how can you be so deluded as to think these 'takers' are motivated by "the basic necessities of life" ?

but assuming for the sake of discussion that they were in such need ?
then violence is ok ?

Ben, I hope to NEVER live in your world
need makes right - WOW !

here's the endpoint of that path:
have a ton of babies, have even more, strip the land to feed them
move to the cities on the dole, riot for more, have more babies
seize the capital goods and destroy them and 'the landed gentry', have more babies
seize whatever there still is, and then ?

education is about the only escape, therefore
no education = no children

you, and the world's do-gooders presume it is a distribution 'problem', and that 'life is precious'
well, it ain't so
life is common as dirt, children with no chance dying daily

how about having fewer children, lets make children of value;
have one per individual and at its majority (16 ?) the parent kills themselves ?

there are some hard choices that need to be made, but sanctioning violence is not an alternative (to me)
