As a long term Systems Engineering practitioner myself, I think it is cool you are thinking in terms of Systems Theory, but your article is a very long piece that I currently can’t spend too long to read, so I’ve gone as far as needed to identify where your analysis needs adjustment, from my point of view.

Any analysis should always begin with a stakeholder model, to establish the boundaries of your analysis / system, and all stakeholders of it and their concerns, where stakeholders are people and other systems, including the environment, since that is now a concern of all people.

The stakeholder model can take significant time to sort out, requiring many revisits, reviews and adjustments, but has to be where all of your assumptions and conclusions come from, those shape the foundations of your analysis, and any system that comes of it.

A further challenge to getting the stakeholder model correct, is that many stakeholders who are able to express concerns don’t yet know themselves what they need.

Hence where you started with Employment in your analysis, I see two reasons the subsequent analysis has to be fundamentally invalid.

Firstly there is no stakeholder model, and secondly an assumption is made that the main stakeholder; (people) want jobs.

Actually people just want physical safety, which is something the currently un-designed system of “humanity” only offers to those with money, so fundamentally, all we need is money, to ensure our safety and comfort.

The concept of jobs is just a convenient mechanism for those whose jobs depend on jobs, to get money.

So it isn’t jobs that are needed, it is just money that is needed, by all.

We might notice that coincides with energy, in fact is interchangeable with energy. Money gets us energy, and we can exchange energy for money.

We all need energy, air, and water.

Money gets us all three, as things stand.

So what is really required, for all people, is a never ending steady stream of money.

I’ve explained how that will happen, in my stories about the money-fuel Tree, and Kardashev Engineering.

When we’ve gone through the analysis, it looks inevitable there is only one survivable outcome, our hand is forced by nature, as if we were playing a game of chess against a far superior player, she is now one move from checkmate.
