winning the lottery

One of my high school teachers asked us if the government couldn't solve all our problems by giving every citizen $1 Million. It wouldn't solve any problems and not very much would change. I have had some success in understanding economics when I imagine the thing without any money and simply think of all the things that people do, want, and need. This imaginary situation where everyone wins the lottery would leave wants, needs, and actions very much the same.

But one day this century, there will be such a superabundance that it will be as if everyone has won the lottery. Formulae as old as civiliation will no longer work and all the glues that are holding this thing together will be dissolved. If civilization is to be considered good, then lets hope that wisdom overcomes ability.
