Polyanna futurists who subscribe to the Tinkerbell theory of manifestation are such idiots. They claim, for example, that because people like cars, guaranteed cars will be a major part of our future. All that is necessary to ensure this is that we like cars. Similarly they say we need abundant clean energy, therefore it will automatically manifest. We need not make any effort or even concern ourselves with how. But consider how many other things we like: e.g. clean oceans, rivers, lakes and streams teaming with fish. They don’t happen without major effort and sacrifice. These futurists remind me of the Swedish preacher in the The Emigrants who assured the flock God would make them all speak English without effort as soon as they stepped off the boat into America.
