The world trade organization will do its thing openly on the futurenet. The interested public will observe from their living rooms all the deals on a wall size panel bringing the proceedings to them for democratic participation in on going decisions. Jobs and income in all nations will be stable, with a great proportion of work and tasks done by robots and a great deal of purchasing power distributed to populations on the basis of rational need and influence on behavior. There will be residual competition, rotating celebtrity and sticky power, but not so much tied to mindless greed as to common sense use of rare talent and skill. The fastnet is coming to organize millions and bring them to the attention of a critical mass.
Money made in trade pays wages and profits at war with each other.
It does not pay union dues directly from sales. This must be a first order priority among activists and economists. We cannot expect the voice of labor to have the sustained power of profit until it is fed under law and custom from the same stream of trade generated money. Not that union dues alone will bring a miracle. Structures will have to be made nearly perfect to keep out the goons and the crooks and make unions more democratic and effective.
