John Courtenage suggests that a task for the future of work is to
eliminate inequality.
Well, I don't know about anyone else, but I value the fact that I am
unique - something which by definition could not exist if there was no
inequality.
Sure, there are excesses of inequality in this world (though it is
arguable if they are really of any greater scale than in other
historical societies, which is an interesting thought in itself) and it
would be fantastic if we were smart enough to reduce these.
But, overall vive la difference - and all the tension and conflict and
doubt and confusion that this brings.
