There's always a need for profit, otherwise you end up with Chinese ghost cities with millions of empty and rotting homes. They will also become a huge environmental catastrophe there quite soon.
Another binary choice someone is inventing. Nobody said it all had to be socialized.
Imagine there's no possessions.. I wonder if you can..
Yeah, I don't want to live in a stone age.
I'm not sure we could go back to the stone age, as a society. That would require collective amnesia. We can't simply forget electricity and wavefunctions, QSARs.
Mind you, some people are still living a stone age mindset.

The majority of the population doesn't even know ohm's law, what wave functions are you even talking about? Remove a bunch of engineers and the whole world will be back in stone age in no time.
Erwin Schroedingers wavefunctions for atomic orbitals. Yeah, I'm not so confident.
