Alot of sci-fi is based on this, star trek for example talk about how humans are able to create almost unlimited energy and the discovery of the replicator. And yet it took several generations for humans to focus on science, medicine and art and specializes them self in different subjects, you didn't have to do so but not doing so was looked down upon. So if we all just focus on unlimited power! And a machine that can reproduce anything with just energy we should be on a good way to function together. I'm still afraid that religion will still be a chaotic fraction in than equation.
I'm guessing people would still want power over others. If there is no scarcity in resources, then we will find something else to fight over.
there's always racism/ethnicity. need a few thousand years of interbreeding to get rid of that issue
Even then people will create pseudo races to discriminate. Just look at Rwanda and Burundi. Hutu and Tutsi are not even genetically distinct, yet a huge war between the two broke out along the lines of "race".
