In the days of INTERNET and BLOCKCHAIN, are there conditions for improving our SOCIETY? Let's talk about the SHARING ECONOMY.

In the last 15 years the DIGITAL WORLD has evolved exponentially, intertwining in every sector of the real world from the economic, financial to the social one.

Today for all of us it is unthinkable to remain disconnected from internet and not only for work-related reasons, above all because our social life is hanging on a thin thread that connects our two worlds, the digital one and the real one, making them interact with each other so I would say in a symbiotic way.

An evolution for all mankind that would have all the credentials to improve the conditions of the society that we have created and in which our life takes place.
We are living in a not at all easy transition period in which the old Industrial Capitalist System is giving way to what can be called a Digital Capitalism that is trasforming the economic mechanisms known and adopted to date.

According to the economist, sociologist and EU consultant JEREMY RIFKIN , today the role of DIGITAL is fundamental to accompany us in what he calls the Third Industrial Revolution.

The time is now ripe to embrace a new model of socio-economic development based precisely on DIGITAL and SHARING rather than competition.
According to RIFKIN the future lies in the SHARING ECONOMY, the peer to peer economy based on a community and social footprint.

Unfortunately, however, the New Digital Capitalism has not in the least rebalanced our economic system while maintaining the same status quo, but significantly increasing its control over the productive and economic system thanks to a PLANETARY CONNECTION.

The struggles of the past to transform our societies into more ethical models of society, against injustices and the exploitation of the Working Class -what was once considered Human Capital but today has less and less value- fail to assert themselves even in Digital Capitalism.

Nothing has changed.

It seems to me that EVERYTHING IS AS ALWAYS: a caste holds and manages enormous wealth against the majority of the global population who live in precarious conditions.

In recent years, the power of banks has grown, as the concentration of economic power in the hands of large multinationals as well as the immense growth of digital platforms that all act in the same way by dictating their rules in an increasingly DIGITAL MONOPOLY REGIME.

We truly believed in the dream that the global connection of work and digital services would FREE all humanity from the economic and social stalemate in which it has always raged.
Instead we have transformed the work system basing it on precariousness and workers' subjection to favor the flexibility needs of companies.
First of all, companies must be protected. Unfortunately we have not considered a small detail: that the WORKING CLASS is also the final CONSUMER.

How long will our Economic System fail to collapse?

It is inevitable.
It is only a matter of time but it will collapse taking away all the old ideas based only on exploitation: of the territory, resources, workers and consumers.

The seed to transform our societies into a better place has already been planted without our knowledge since 2009 and today bears fruit in many projects that have developed on new digital technologies that are slowly redesigning all production and economic structures in a way inexorable.
Because to the question of whether there are the conditions for creating a better society today, I ANSWER YES.
There is a free and shared structure that can transform the world economy by bringing equity into today's societies, I am talking about Blockchain Technology.

Our societies will become thriving, free and ethical when they are based on the blockchain, when they abandon the pyramidal development system but follow a horizontal and democratic development.

The Blockchain can be used by all by lending itself to an infinite series of applications in Sharing Economy of course, even in the Free Market but in my opinion it must be adopted immediately by Public Institutions to provide citizens with the services they need following the ratio essendi* of the good and the community and eliminate at the base any social injustice.

According to Jeremy Rifkin, Capitalism will not disappear, but it will no longer be the exclusive arbiter of economic life, on the contrary, it will have to find value in interacting with the Sharing Economy on many levels.
Rifkin also talks about the potential benefits of the Blockchain that will allow small and medium-sized enterprises to interact with each other in an agile way and without intermediaries, removing this role from the big companies that today dominate the market.

The future lies in Decentralization, it can no longer be denied, it is under everyone's eyes.
