My point is life was worse in the past. Things, in general, are better now than 100 years ago. There will always be risks when it comes to advancements but making things stay the same forever is not the solution.

There is no guarantee of this. It must be earned.

Not guaranteed but likely. Nothing in life in general is guaranteed things in general will likely be better in 2123. If your looking at "likely" in a negative view and it has to be perfect that's on you. You should be looking at the bigger picture and not have imperfection be the enemie of good. If you mean by earned that people should be going out of there own way for helping them selfs than yes. But if an opportunity arises so that they can help them selfs easier than it should not be invalid because it was made easier. If you still disagree that's fine but let's see if you still disagree in the year 2043. If it comes true, you will be in a world where everything in general is free, living in a simulation of your choice. If you still disagree if it comes ture then I'll be impressed but until then wait.
