Does it occur to you that if everyone thought like you do, then nothing would ever change?
To me, it seems obvious we do change, according to what technologies we have in our environment. If we expect to change, and embrace change, then of course we will change.
The feudal notions of ownership you mention, I believe are down to scarcity. As long as our environment imposes scarcity upon us, we will exhibit territorial possessive tendencies. Lately we might have noticed that scarcity is becoming something less and less due to our environment, more and more to do with our fellow humans, imposing scarcity upon us.
We might remember when $4Tn stimulus was issued in the US in one month, oil prices went negative, Bitcoin, gold, and all other capital languished, shares in some bankrupt companies soared, and the dollar price itself went up in international markets.
Conventional economists claimed that the rise in dollar value was due to MMT, but there was another much more physical factor at work, that is the reception of Joules of energy from the sun that were monetised.
See Bitcoin was already solar powered, far more so than many authorities cared to admit or even know about, as with a solar farm, a Bitcoin mining outfit could exist in a country virtually undetected as it need not even be grid connected, therefore the outfit could operate without paying taxes.
So a large amount of money-as-sunlight was being exchanged for ever increasing amounts of money-as-debt.
Right there, we were seeing an invisible physical product that still not many understand or acknowledge exists, being added to the global economy; Joules of energy from the sun.
But if we did understand it, we would also have realised scarcity is no longer necessary, as it is no longer imposed by our environment.
Now, those with the power to issue money to all people could choose to do so, with no fear of a negative impact to the dollar or any other currency issued.
$4Tn stimulus per month could be issued every month, indefinitely, again forcing oil prices negative, and again rescuing floundering but still loved companies, and again providing income for everyone now becoming homeless and experiencing poverty due to wagelessness.
But, by issuing the stimulus, another thing that would happen is loss of the value in all capital, including gold and Bitcoin.
Who would bother to save, if free money could be forever?
By that, the capitalists holding possesion of both the capital and the power to print money would be giving away their privelige, to wield the power of scarcity enforcement.
So of course they don't talk much about what happened when the orange outcast exposed the scam of enforced scarcity.
Just like this story is never told much either:
