Forget terrorism AI is going to be the end of us. Chalk it up to the Law of Unintended Consequences.

Humans made things
Humans bought things they made
Humans built machines to make things
Humans scratch their heads
Humans can't buy things
Humans lost their jobs to the machines they built
Humans scratch their head again
Humans say WTF are we going to do now?

There will never be an end to scarcity, need, wants, haves, have-nots, etc.
You give everyone food, water, a house, etc., and suddenly the guy with 2 houses is better off. Give everyone 2 houses, and the guy with 3 is better.
There is literally no scenario where you can say people wouldn't be stratified. If everyone had their own planet, then I would want 2. Why not? I'd also like a different car to drive every day, a few 747s to remotely fly over the pacific, and a cruise liner to myself (complete with staff) for vacations. And, the moon. I want the moon. Why? Probably never go there, but just so I can say, "See that? It's mine."
