Actually literally everything in the universe guarantees that we will reach a stable solution. That's how things work. That stable solution may end up killing billions of people but eventually you get a status quo. Systems gravitate towards low energy states.

Also an Elysium like scenario? That movie was a joke and made no sense. If you're gonna believe in science fiction as the model for the future at least go for something that isn't terrible.

Uhhhhhh.....

I think we're talking about social systems, not physical ones. A social system in which BILLIONS of people die is not any kind of "stable".
