Tyler the basic principle I try to get across is the physics of things.

When we get that right, everything else falls into place.

All of the questions you’ve asked are people questions, based on society that was, a society with an existentially fatal flaw.

In that old mode, life is lived in fear of scarcity, and scarcity was a weapon used to enforce things.

Further, in that life, since all funds came only from folk we make agreements with, all people must have complex relationships with all others.

We are conditioned all of our lives to accept that as a great way to be, and to shame those who dare to disagree.

The only proof needed to show control by scarcity, is impose scarcity on disbelievers, then nobody dares disbelieve.

Now with real money coming from work done by the energy of sunlight, it really can be given for free, with no loss of value.

That is something new that changes everything, by removing scarcity once and for all, but most folk don’t seem to be able to see it, at least not many in my circles, boomers.

What we think of as governments and businesses are imploding, all over the world due to the long term unsustainability of the business of profit, which depends absolutely on scarcity to be possible. Haves must be balanced with have-nots, in the old world, and each have seems to be worth an awful lot of have-nots.

It is just as well the old system is collapsing, because our planet can’t take much more plunder of energy either, as we can see.

And it is just as well for us, that we found the real source of energy, the sun, and learned to monetise it, otherwise for sure we would be finished.

It follows that without scarcity, there is no need to commit crime, after all, crime, for most criminals, is just another form of work, right? So why bother, if we have free money.

Snooping on folks data is only necessarary if there is something we wish to gain from it, in other words profit. With no scarcity, why bother going to the trouble of snooping.

When we look at all of that, we see that there is an awful lot of time and effort spent on just maintaining the system of profit.

With our time freed up from those things, we can start to produce things of real value.

Thinking that any human does not, cannot, or won’t do that, is a big mistake, in my opinion.

Every human can, and will do it. We really don’t know how not to, I would say.

If we doubt that people with free money can have ambitions, or still be driven to do anything of value, look closely at what happened when massive stimulus was issued.

People were defining what has value by directing some of their free money towards them.

That action alone was finely grained true democracy in action, and incredibly valuable.

If we wonder who will issue the free money, the answer is anyone who has it.

For now it could be banks.

In the future it could be all people.
