Will it be called the Shawyer Drive?

Regardless, it is still a sublight drive. So my theory that alien civilizations become immortals before achieving hyperdrive tech, thus eliminating the need for colonies, still viable.

Wouldnt people becoming immortal mean we need more colonies? On account of there being too many people...

The asteroid belt and the Oort Cloud have enough resources to support trillions of people.

Singularity immortals. Flesh is but a memory.

This is one of the possibilities, and the most likely one from our current technological perspective, but their are people investing in the possibility of endless renewal of the human body.
I'll get you a link later.

Remember I introducced you to the concept of the technological singularity.
Your little brain will eventually catch up.

Post singularity civilizations are post scarcity.
100% recycling and molecular restructuring on a 3D printer.

Hopefully, one day you'll be introduced to the concept of skepticism.

I am skeptic of socialism, communism, luddites, alien contact of any kinds including paleo-contact, and all kinds of conspiracy theories.

Wholesale rejection without considering the merits is not the same thing.

Why do you assume that?
I am a recent convert to full free market capitalism.
I used to support the concept of limited socialism.

But not much in the way of quality of life.  There are no flowers, trees, or green open pastures in the Oort cloud.
