Dear Peter, I have not read this text. Only the title and your comment. But we can see, that you're not rooted in reality.
The base for our existence is the nature. And with our work we transform some materials, that we can use it. A life without work is only possible for rubbers. The elits, the rulers, the parasits. This are the dominant ruling forces in our history and today. But we can go another way: 1) we dissolve all parasitic structures and infrastructures. With that we can reduce the quantity for working time to nearly 10 %. 2) All people, based on her health condition, are part in this working area. Parallel to the other things. With that we can reduce the individual necessary working time. 3) we use the time for our exchange equivalent. We can take, what we give or we have to give, what we take. This is easy, because only our time is that, what we bring in the economy (i don´t speak about the distribution system). 4) "global thinking, local doing" and "knowledge is always world heritage". This two principle, the base for our global cooperation, help us to extend our understanding of the law of the nature and her materialisation, the technology. If we follow this, we have a stable life environment and many time for all. many greetings, willi St. Elena de Uairen, Venezuela Am 24.04.2016 um 02:52 schrieb Peter Waterman: > Maybe I posted this already but Sunday April 24, 2016, I heard co-author Nick > Srnicek discussing it with a couple of BBC guest commentators on BBC World > Service. > > Is this wauw or what?
