Step 1: Money is powerful and it can do things for us. The entire world knows it. But the monetary note is usually a debt made by the govt with a promise to return the value it bears to the bearer. Its a promisary note. It works because we all beleive in the promise. Also, we all beleive in the promise because we know it works that way from experience. In other words, we make it work and we crave for it because it works.
Step 2 : Digital money. I do not even need the notes, but if my bank statement shows a number , I am credit worthy. People would trust me. I would be given plastic and I have everything i had in step 1. This time the world is putting its trust in banks. In step 1, the world was putting its trust on a promisary note signed by an organisation which is authorised to print on paper in exchange for value.
Step 3: Lets do one thing. Lets put our trust on some arbitary material and make the whole world beleive in it. It will become all powerful.People would be sweating and toiling all day to acquire that mateial which became all powerful and scarce because we choose that material to rule us.
Step 4: Lets not have a master and lets trust ourselves rather than placing our trust in paper , plastic or grass. What would happen ? If we do that, the world would be a garden of eden by the next sunrise . We do not have to earn money or work all our lives to become credit worthy and then spend that credit in buying a house or buying goods which are NOT rare in the first place. Check out the Zeitgeist movement or Project Venus on google.
Now, Lets be certain about one thing. Somewhere in the future , people would be reading in history books that men and women around 2010 era , lived and died trying to earn money which was created by an incredibly powerful human organisation which inturn resulted in global slavery and scarcity for things which are essentially infinite in nature.
Human beings in the future will build things which would last. they would not need money to have a house or a car. They would be mass producing these things and everyone on earth would be having them and energy would be free. Why should there be a cost to anything. Nothing is scarce in the universe. We need technology which can harness these infinite free resources and there will be no poverty. The world would be truly wealthy. Lets not crave for money , lets crave to create things which would last forever. 6 billion people can put their minds for one day to go for things they all need and create ´weapons of mass creation ´. Why run around all day long to have money when we can directly create what we need by having global unity. We have already created the first free system. Its the internet. We all spend at least 2 to 3 hours everyday accessing information from the net which is basically free. How did we do that ? do we pay for watching youtube. Do we pay wikipedia. Do we pay for any of the things we get on the net ? And isnt the net getting richer by the day with information and almost everything we essentially need ? If we can do this in digital space , we can do it in physical space too. Why not create a factory which builds composite houses day in and day out. All the material could be free like glass which is made from silicon or from renewable energy. Machines can do repeatable things once we have a energy source driving it. They do not break down in ages. Why not use them to create. Its time we break from our slavery and look at the world in a totally new way.
