The only things we should trade across an ocean for are luxury goods.
Nintendo, not medical supplies, hard-wood bikeframes, not piles and piles of
"recycling". People's time on culinary thirty course weeklong meals, not cans
of San marzano tomatoes. Tapestries and gilded statues, not thirteen tons of
barely processed rubber.
What would we offer in return? Luxuries of our own. We do still make them, do
we not? Just think of what the 1% has gathered to rot and give away the whole
damned lot. We shall not provide necessities, because giving a man a fish will
feed him for but a day, and a man's gotta eat. He'll find a way.

minds are not algorithms, they're soup
community is made by introducing people to one another. like stitching
together a weave pattern in the tapestry of life. (3 dimensional though,
because it exists in our hearts and minds - this thing called society)
kind of guy who says he's going on work trips but actually goes on vacation
(because work is his life, it's where he derives vigor - the family is the
difficult part.) yeah those kind of guys shouldn't be married tbh. They're
just gonna take vigor from her heart.
engineers need guidance sometimes, which is why they shouldn't be given no
oversight. they can design whatever they want, but like here's what people
need, so they should consider working on those.
but, y'know, checks and balances, so what would the engineers be most open to
sacrificing for that trust? perhaps... funding? the quartermasters are in
charge of the "stuff", so they get to decide how it's produced. and used.

thus enters the promise of technology: that we might solve the problems of
bureaucracy once and for all by ever more effiency-aligning mechanical
processes that produce effects which we desire - such as efficient allocation
of medical resources such that all of humanity is protected from the ravages
of pain and the incongruencies of our nature.
Alas, that we should only conceive of success through the lens of profit.
Perhaps another design is in order?
(oh yeah also people who are in control are worried that we, like all other
examples of natural entities, might immediately proceed to breed beyond the
capability to cater to the needs of said entity (such as "to feed" and medical
resources) and therefore might overburden (and therefore destroy) said system
which allows for their sustenance and initial creation. To this I say... Yeah

"updating software" is when you go back and add helper functions for things
you used had to do to solve a problem but didn't get a chance to make. Because
you were making more important things and couldn't pad out all the
possibilities. But if you want great software, then you both take more time to
accomplish that and you give yourself time for it after it's been launched.
Basically, companies are incentivized to only support their products if it
makes them money. Meaning reputations are tarnished, and profit is affected.
Capitalists intentionally drive businesses into the ground, forcing them to
make terrible decisions in order to destroy them. It's a warfare against those
on the [bottom/floor/ground-floor].
Some businesses strive for long-term potential, and some will create
infrastructure that can be sold to another. Essentially, keeping the dream of
learning alive, through applying yourself to both long-term and short-term
conclusions. Not everything has to be for some grand design, we're here to
relish in this moment. For if we lack the capacity to "frolic in the garden of
eden", then we will surely drown. Space is vast, it's difficult to understand
how we might control it. Surely we could be given aid to our future
betterment!" how simple of a request, sure, of course, we would be glad to

one section of the government consistently and succeedingly telling another
part what to do is a coup-like behavior. if the rules mean nothing, then what
is your job even for?
hence, why the rules mean something. Because your job is important. It's
building up our capabilities as the human race.
you don't have to work to live. you shouldn't, and you won't. it's not your
place to labor. know why? because nobody's job is impossible. You can just...
work together to get things done. Then they're done! and you never need to
solve them again!
enough time of that and we'll have turned earth into a space station, not a

hyperspace is real. Ah, well, that's for the future, they can pass it along if

Native people should have the right to walk wherever they want. It should just
be... given to them, as a gift to their heritage. Why not? If someone asked
them to leave, they should. Doesn't have to have a reason but like, wouldn't
it be thematic and a (frankly token) gesture to the history of this great land?
Ah but like... fences are an implicit expression of the retraction of consent.
I believe that as the symbol of the encroaching force that consumed them, a
fence means nothing to their tribes. It's a stupid excuse to section off the
world into miniature gardens with their own little economies and systems and
instructions. Why can't people just live wherever they want? Well...
economics, I guess, which is why communal based systems are best. We've
learned through the downsides and we've come up with a solution, it's just a
question of how to do best. We'll figure it out, time and time again, but for

the first priority of a government should be in producing enough to satisfy all
the needs of it's inhabitants. Once it can do that it can begin moving it's
economy into a new stage of development - one where nobody needs any money
because they can have whatever they want. If you want a car, sure. If you want
17 cars, then maaaaaaybe you need to produce something related to cars. I mean,
it's only fair that you contribute to what you value.
you don't have to have just one job, too, you could sign yourself up for
several at once and they would notify you when you were needed. Basically
giving
them customized availabilities that they could discuss amongst themselves and
figure out. Like, it doesn't have to be like... managers doing this, more like
just a simple computer program. Easy, simple, and done.
if you work for two companies in the same industry, there can be NO
restrictions
on what you can say or do. Because when knowledge is not lost, but repeated
through the generations, we can have progress. And progress advances us toward
the meta objective, the goal that transcends all the battles in the war, if you
get my drift.
they say the atom bomb ended the war, but the blood of men is what won it.
maybe it's the same with the economy? Maybe we should be pooling our efforts to
generate something that "ends the war" with scarcity? We could solve global
warming and create new wondrous things that are beautiful to behold.
I'll ask you again, do you want to live forever?

a complicated task, and they'll work together to solve it. Doesn't matter if
they're actually successful, because they'll be exploring the idea space. And
by mapping it out, they're able to fully understand their existence. Boom,
technological progress applied to growth. Let's gooooo (but by being careful
about what resources we burn because we miiiiight run out)
seriously ya'll need to start thinking long-term. I mean, I already came up

If our government was of the people, by the people, and for the people, then
it would aim to make all of its citizens as rich as it could. A good place to
start would be by encouraging deflation, so people could buy more high quality
goods on the international markets, and by regulating the power that select
few individuals may use to extract wealth and labor from the "lesser" citizens.
I don't know about you but I believe that all men are created equal, and it is
unconscionable that some may bend others to their will.
Liberty, liberty, freedom for me but not for thee, for I am a despot you see,
of my own little fiefdom, this palace of renown - I built my playground from
the blood and bones of your kin, and I stand here on the high ground. Come at
me! See what my army of drones can do. I built them overseas, with an army of
slaves that I'm not accountable for. Come at me! See who the police of this
nation will protect. I paid for them, after all, with my endless coffers and
vaults of inherited wealth. Come at me! See who will believe ye, the media is
at my beck and call. Propaganda works on everyone, and everything you see on
