human values are created by social system, war, crime, politic & poverty are essentially money related so those who contribute are not getting paid, why they would do it? their reward is the fruit of society as a whole, they contribute because it is at their best interest to do so. just as everyone can contribute. self-interest become integrated as social interest, they become 1. you want to help yourself, you must help society explicitly. everything is for the greater good. frankly i believe our survival as a species is absolutely contingent upon this world view.
moreover, the participants and contributor would not be fixed, they are constantly evolving based on who wants to participate, who can contribute in any given feel. abstractly speaking this actually would be a true democracy, wouldn't it? arbitrary voting for politician is now replaced by a logical review of given concepts based on social merit with the contributor brought in help, not "im gonna reduce taxes".... and.. "here comes change"...
the degree which a person can contribute is based on their education level, ability to create and problem solving. this is why extended education is critical. in today's society you'll find the public is essentially kept distracted and uninformed, this is how the government maintain control. if you review history, you'll find that power is maintained by ignorance. in non-monetary system, the goal of the education system is to produce the most intelligent, aware human being as possible. why? because everyone then becomes contributor, greatly affecting our collective social evolution for the better and improving the life of all.
intelligence will no longer be a threat to the establishment, for there is no power establishment. there will be no budget restriction or unethical agenda to deter progress also people would have high propensity to become generalist, not specialist. specialization is a limitation, the monetary system promote specialization as a form of labor distribution for income, its kinda built in and its a colossal hindrance. i believe buckminister fuller put it quite well on this issue :
"our failures are a consequence of many factors, but possibly one of the most important is the fact that society operates on the theory that specialization is the key to success, not realizing that specialization precludes comprehensive thinking. this means that the potentially - integrable - techno - economic advantages are not comprehended integratively and therefore are not realized.."
in another words people need to be broadly educated, not refined and isolated. this leads to detached thinking, so who suppose to makes the decision in our society? no one does. decisions are arrived at by the use of the scientific method. actually by asking such question as "who makes the decision" is devious logic, its not who makes the decision, but by what method decisions arrived at :
Scientific Method - the basic steps in the scientific method are :
State the problem
Gather information
Form a hypothesis
Test the hypothesis
Record and analyze data
State the conclusion
Repeat the work
the question of who makes the decision is a bias attribute that we are trapped-in because of our rationally founded fear of each other groups. which we are continually to pursue power based on monetary gain. using a monetary systems as their tools to continue to maintain control.
"During times of universal deceit…”
ReplyDeleteFellow citizens, fellow residents, but, ultimately, fellow thinkers and toilers: this is a call for action; action, for the time being, demanding no more than that which comes natural to every living thing that can think--to think. But to think willfully, with a diligent pursuit for the truth. For, it defeats the very purpose of thinking, for a thinking thing to not pursue the truth. Take a quick glance at your immediate surroundings and ask yourself: Does integrity present itself in the form of visual appeals? Or analyze any political campaign and ask yourself: Does integrity present itself in the form of conscious fallacy? Or any single one of the innumerable commercial advertisements that have saturated society, and ask yourself: Can one sell a product, yet maintain integrity? No, because appearances are deceiving, and even more deceiving when profits are at stake; no, for a politician cannot win an office by telling the truth; and, no, for it would not be wise business to tell the truth.
Integrity cannot survive for any extended period of time in a society when integrity is a hindrance to prosperity. History has proven time and again that those who deceive are rewarded and those who deceive the greatest receive the greatest rewards. Jefferson once said that “All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent.” Integrity permits one to understand and to expressly openly the grave importance of liberty and to provide this liberty to the people so that they can have the freedom to voice their opinion on matters of social relevance without the fear of physical or emotional harm. For this reason I call upon you this day; to express loudly and clearly the abominations that we have managed to tolerate for so long. We reside in an age when one billion people are starving, when multiple millions die every year from water and air pollution alone, when wars still ravage the planet, when one may justify the crime of opposing universal health care on the basis of finance when we have fought an unjust multi-trillion dollar war for nearly a decade. One may glance through history and attempt to argue that we reside now in the midst of the most progressive age man has ever experienced; but this would be a foolish stance to take, for the technologies we have in our possession are entirely irrelevant if we do not apply them for the advancement of the human condition. More people are suffering now than at any other time in human history; if anything, past societies were justified in the suffering they experienced, for they could do nothing to improve their condition. There is no justification for the toleration of destitution in contemporary society.
Humanity cannot afford indifference. Empathy spawns from a single picture of a starving child, of a war ridden community, of a feces covered coastline. This is the world in which we reside, despite the extremely rare exceptions in which we are surrounded. We cannot afford to turn a blind eye to reality any longer. We must stand beside one another and demand attention, not from our political leaders, for they will accomplish nothing, but from ourselves. When the people unite under a common banner not even the forces of hell will turn us back. If we do not believe it is possible to provide to every human being the most fundamental necessities, then we do not believe any further progress of humanity is possible; then we have given up on the universal value of equality and the pursuit of happiness. There is no greater human cause than that which preaches universal prosperity.
Another message will not be sent, for I am not blind of the perspectives of contemporary society; I recognize that I have essentially invaded your comfort domain. Therefore, I shall send another message only if a mark is placed upon your mailbox in the form of a circle.

It should be pointed out that no human really "invents" or create anything on his or her own. Every idea and creation that has emerged has been done so based on the contributions of prior generations' work, environmental influences and/or peer feedback. As Isaac Newton once said : "If i have seen further, it is only by standing on the shoulders of Giants". His point was that he built his research, and hence discoveries, upon the work of many other great scientists who lived before him. His credit therefore is not only his, it goes to the whole body of scientific discovery that he had learned and worked with.
