capitalism is the best economic system

There is a few things your misunderstanding, perhaps I did not adequately clarify. lets go over a couple of things.Q: Who would be in charge:A: An Artificial Intelligence. ( More on this later in the post)-By contrast-Who is in charge today? Money is... Money determines your status, money in the capitalist society determines your value. Our " things" our possessions have come to determine our lives.Money gets you immunity to law : http://www.cnn.com...Or : http://www.delawareonline.com... A capitalist society is determined by a person's worth. Their education, opportunity and accountability to law are all subject to economic status. Back to RBE, In RBE, Education is free- Life necessities are not scarce in our modern world ( Think about it, go to a grocery store and there are tropical fruits available in winter. We throw away enough food to feed the hungry.) Energy is met by solar and wind and other safe,renewable resources. ( http://www.huffingtonpost.com... , http://cleantechnica.com... ) Our agriculture practices are out of date, Superior options are available. http://aquaponics.com... http://www.theguardian.com... ( Virtually any crop can be grown with low usage of pesticides.)So to recap: Scarcity is not a concern in the modern world. Capitalism has become a system that protects inferior products because superior products are less-or-not profitable. Solar is capable of meeting our power requirements but Coal,Natural gas and Oil are Billion(s) dollar industries in their own respect. Nether food nor energy is scarce. Nor is Water if we stop polluting and wasting on Hydofracking. A highly sophisticated computer program is in charge of managing the other autonomous systems that transport and manufacture our products. In short: Robots managing robots, with little human interaction. A system that is In fact achievable in our generation. Next you brought up Currency and money. In a full RBE, a currency is pointless and our things wouldn't be valuable at all. That idea seems to scare people who are for reasons beyond my understanding FIXATED on how much they are worth... I contend that this is a really unhealthy system, as evidenced by how the capitalist society treats its "elite" v. its lowest members. But let me break this idea of currency down, you suggested that some forms of labor are more valuable than others. Think of it this way, Is your digestive track any less important than your heart? ... No... you'd die if either one ceased functioning... all be it one would kill you faster. The cells that carry oxygen to your heart are no less valuable to you than the cells that protect your body from foreign invaders. The body does not argue over which organ is more important or which cell demands more attention. In a RBE, laborious jobs are automated. Housing construction, Automated. Waste disposal: Automated. Assembly jobs: Automated. The human factor would remain in content creation and innovation, research and development and cultural services. Here is why Capitalism cannot endure much further: Capitalist system can no longer provide adequate employment for a large sector of its population. " Unskilled labor" I.e. Assembly jobs and cashiers ARE being phased out, its not a future thing.. its happening Now.. as in today, the process is already underway. The "Labour lump" fallacy is often sited by pro-capitalist elements with claims that technology does not destroy but only displaces workers, giving them a change to learn a new trade and go back to school. In the past, this was mostly true how ever the growth of technology is exponential- not linear. it is no longer adequate to compare the brick and mortar stores being destroyed by Amazon to the elevator operator being replaced a century ago. Automation is now so cheap, so powerful and so much easier to use that it will soon replace positions still performed by humans due to the costs of automation. ( ) for example, Baxter is incredibly cheap and useful and requires almost no technical skill to use.Technology has simply outpaced the market system. But even the idea of going back to school is restricted by economic status. Higher education is far more expensive than it needs to be....and no one should ever be prohibited form better opportunities based on their current life situation. How ever, American capitalism in particular is dead-set on villianizing the poor... I could draw so many parrells between Capitalist attitude towards the poor and our attitude towards rape victims and more... but I won't do that here. One last note on currency. An RBE can have a market system if we want a market system, it simply does not require a market system. Its systems of trade would be based on the value of consumption rather than production... remember that nearly all production is done by machines. So every one gets so many credits , call them Energy credits they can spend on things they want, but their needs are met regardless. But RBE once more does not NEED such a system, its optional.Lastly on the topic of Ownership... Your fears are unfounded. Consider this. Do you REALLY want a camera, or do you want the function of the camera? Do you really need to own- if by contrast you can get one with little effort and return it when your finished using it- like checking it out of a library? Do you want a Yaught or do you want the relaxation and luxury a yacht offers? What if you could escape to the coast any time you wanted on a mass transit system that moves you anywhere in the world at tremendous speeds ( http://www.et3.com... ) and simply check out a lot? What if you could move your home to a new location any time you wanted to move to another entirely with ease? ( http://www.thevenusproject.com... ) ( this documentary covers all of the above topics: ) Our ability to produce products no longer has any bearing int eh Capitalist system, We are producing more goods than ever, but people go without. More food than ever, but people still starve while unsold food is thrown away. The average worker in one Hour is more productive today than a worker 20 years ago was in a day. YET, our wages havn't increased proportionally... our hours havn't decreased proportionally and all the while profits in the higher echelons have seen proptionally meteoric rises. The rich are richer Proportionally than ever before, but the poor arn't suffering because they are colelctively lazy... they are suffering under a system that is breaking down from the inside. The nature of capitalism should not be in dispute... It's primal... based on economic rules that no longer apply. To be blunt with you, if you chose to live ina world where some one else must go with out for you to have more than you need... If you chose a system where people's worth detirmiens their oppertunity, when none of it is nessesary... when a better a world is possible. There is something wrong with you.Despite the best efforts of naysayers, there are efforts to build functioning RBE societies underway even now. These highly technical groups might be reminisant of communes from the 1960s, but they are far better organized with far more tools at their disposal and I intend to be joining up with one in the next couple of years. http://www.eoslife.eu...http://www.newearthnation.org...http://www.onecommunityranch.org...;and many others.
