The Ages of Economics:
The economy is less confusing if you assume there are three different types of economies with conflicting goals.
The Age of Scarcity is ruled by the classic laws of supply and demand. Goal: -Provide for you and yours.
The Age of Artificial Scarcity is ruled by regulated supply and manufactured demand. Goal: -Manufacture goods to keep people happy. -Create jobs to keep people busy.
The Age of Post-Scarcity is ruled by adequate supply through efficient distribution and responsible demand.
GOAL: -Get and Give freely. -Own what we use, use what we Own. -Act like an ADULT and be treated like an ADULT. -LIMITLESS information gives LIMITLESS possibilities.
This is an informal proposal for the transition from Artificial Scarcity to Post-Scarcity.
As opposed to the external and often violent transition into the Age of Artificial Scarcity, Making the Age of Post-Scarcity is a highly internal shift in perception and priority on a personal and political level.
Giving and Getting
Giving is often confused for Enabling Enabling steals responsibility, crippling the recipient. Think of Giving as unconditional sharing that hurts neither party.
Getting is often confused with Taking. Instead of depriving others, Getting shares wealth. Values increase as Networks grow and Utility is multiplied. Everyone gets more and what they have is worth more.
Own
SPOILS
The Perfect Artificial Scarcity Template aims to keep the workforce busy trading the highest quality labor they can do for an endless subscription to cheap addictive sustenance and entertainment.
In turn, people ardently defend their addiction to Spendable, Consumable, & Atrophic Machinations of Planned Obsolescence & Occupying but Rootless quality products and an Insipid, Myopic, & Poisonous Artificially Scarcity/Secretive Entrenchment of Limiting, Immature, Toxic, Ignominious, Onerous, Under-tested, & Scapegoating Subordination, Emaciated Control, Taxation, & Stratification.
It is a SCAM of POOR quality products and an IMPASSE of LITIGIOUS SECTS.
Instead of making SPARES we settle for SPOILS.
SPARES
SMART Sustainably Manufacture and Acquire the Resources and Tools: Instead of buying Whatever I Don’t GIVE/GET Enough of To be Satisfied, slowly buy shares of the business until Ownership and consumption ratios are equal.
Other Owners find ways to increase our dependency and their profits, whereas we will create ways to charge ourselves less for WIDGETS.
PICK Pliant, Intelligent, & Cooperative Knowledge: Adapt knowledge constantly. Learn from the mistakes of others and yourself. Share your process so that others may learn. There’s less liability if operating with full disclosure.
AGED Appreciate Gracefully, Evolve Dynamically: The Community/Owners, Management/Personnel, & Audience/Network become more Invested, Educated, and Skilled over time. COMPANIES mature and the SMART PICK AGED.
RICH Responsibility leads to wise Investments Instincts lead to developing Discipline. Cooperative leads to real Earnings. Honesty leads to free Assistance.
EAT Efficient, Abundant, & Thankful: Judge the efficiency of a company by it’s generosity. Businesses can afford Indulging others if they are Sustainable, Pliant, Evolving, Cooperative, Intelligent, & Appreciating Leaders. The better the quality of its charity, the better the COMPANY should be. Products will have a lower upkeep and higher quality for everyone.
SMALL Synergistic Modularity And Less Labor: Work in focused divisions to maximize subjective qualities to Prioritize & Localize the Aesthetics of Yields better. Share tools and information to PLAY together nicely.
Through generations of brilliance and hard work, we’ve earned the ability to work less. Post-Scarcity economics focuses on eliminating jobs, not sustaining artificially full employment. Let’s Decentralize to Immediately and Locally Use, Transfer, and Evolve information to DILUTE labor.
Like sufficient tastes of gourmet food, the RICH EAT SMALL.
Adults
Adults should be Responsible, Instinctual, Cooperative, and Honest,
but we’re addicted to an uncomfortable familiarity. Functional Addicts Collectively Enable Incessant Taking.
Instead of being RICH we are PASSIVE. Permission: blame loopholes and superiors. Allowance: have unrealistic expectations of job availability & pay. Social Security: pyramid schemes give recognition for our service. Innocent: don’t get caught, if you do act ignorant. Vacuum: your (in)actions don’t affect others. Ennui: all else fails, use an exotic excuse.
The economy is used as a babysitter for Individuals who can’t monitor their own demand. We sacrifice time & ideas to pay the Banks, Landlords, Insurance, Governments, Hospitals, & Trainers for Credit, Occupancy, Limited Liability, Arbitration and Protection, Subsistence, and Employability.
As long as a society chooses Artificial Scarcity, then a government made by the people will do everything it can to sustain an environment that rewards the PASSIVE & inhibits Adults.
Nothing is more expensive than giving up responsibility.
LIMITLESS
Liberating Intellectual Monopolies:
Information Technology The Strong, Adapting, Fast, Efficient sharing of knowledge makes Networks better.
Libraries The collection of human creation should be universally available for future inspiration.
Education The tools to learn and teach should be unrestricted to allow maximum education.
Social Services Unfetter other Medical, Agricultural, Infrastructural, Noble industries to provide a higher quality of life.
Intellectual Monopolies are good in the short term but stunt growth over time because they are burdened by Transmission And Legal Kickbacks.
The people who will excel in a LIMITLESS economy have the most Wisdom, Entrepreneurship, Associations, Leadership, Taste, & Humanity.
ART
Start To Embrace Passions Step 2: Learn what is ART (Avoid what just looks NICE)
What is ART?
ART Consumers shouldn’t judge by COST and Brand Resourcefulness is not measured by COST, It is measured by a company’s Indulgence. Transparency is not measured by Brand, It is measured by a company’s Integrity. Consumer must become CRITIC and identify, judge, and support ART
BAIT If we have no hard data on a brand, Disregard obvious warnings, Ignorantly consume, Or selfishly don’t care, Then Brands will mold our trust with advertising.
B= i(T) Brands Are Imaginary Trust.
CODE We Tax ourselves behind the scenes Obscured costs we don’t want to see Resolving choice with cost, we’ll hurt ourselves. Drained of time and effort for things that don’t help.
Cost Only Disguises Exploitation
Judging by Brand and Cost will lead to the RAT, the TAR, and the TRAP
What is the RAT?
Brands and Cost let you be taken advantage of easily. It takes conscious effort to ensure transparency by a Community. When we stop being Critical together the RAT will abuse us. Accountability without transparency harbors corrupt resourcefulness.
The RAT has personality and intelligence and their resourcefulness is unparalleled. Low prices and crafted Brand make them look trustable. Unwatched they destroy, spread disease, and leave land unsustainable. For the RAT, it’s never about money, it’s about being clever.
Attacking the RAT hurts everyone else. The RAT will charge you for their lost time. Make all the regulations you want; there is always a loophole for the RAT to find. The Rat changes names or location faster than repenting. They corrupt old techniques used to judge a good Brand. (Notice all the green-washing?)
Holding a RAT accountable is difficult because you don’t know or can’t prove why they are attractive. The RAT will fight angrily against the transparency. Compared to competing fairly, it’s more cost effective.
The RAT says, “Don’t turn on the lights, protect your privacy!” The RAT says, “Don’t fight, you are as corrupt as me.” The RAT says, “I’ll keep your secret for a price, freedom isn’t free.” The RAT bites you and infects you with their RAT mentality. No wonder why we are overrun with a RAT army.
The RAT—beautiful in their resourcefulness—is still a RAT. It’s a pity that beauty and cleverness isn’t used to make ART. A CRITIC chooses ART, even when they are poor. It has a lower price, even if the Cost is more.
