It is an attainable vision of a bright and better future. It proposes the redesign of our social institutions by applying the latest technologies to benefit everyone. The uniqueness of our project is that it presents refreshing alternatives that offer practical solutions to our many problems. With the advent of automation and cybernation, there will be an ever-increasing replacement of people by automated systems. It is only a matter of time until the purchasing power of the vast majority will be tremendously reduced, and finally eliminated.
Automation requires no health insurance, pension plans, vacation time, or 'people problems'.
As a result of this, fewer people will be able to purchase goods and services even though the capability to produce an abundance exists. This may cause a breakdown of our present economic system and a reduction in the quality of life for most people. The statistical evidence of the rapid advance of these technologies can no longer be dismissed or ignored. While at one time it could be argued that machine technology has created new jobs in the fields of computers, CDs, VCRs and so forth, all economic indications show that a drop in man-hours coincides with an increase in productivity. It is only a matter of time before cheap human labor is replaced by even less expensive automation that requires no housing, training, or feeding.
