RE: The poverty trap

in #sociology5 years ago

This is the true power of decentralization: it is freedom. The extant economic model is based on industrial production, which creates centralized pools of wealth and power by extracting rent from every transaction to acquire goods and services from industry. The cutting edge of every technological field today is decentralization. Every field.

This notably makes the rentier model of centralization obsolete, by no longer enabling rent to be extracted from production of goods that people just make themselves. Decentralization of the means of production is literally freedom.

We need to keep the wolf of war at bay a little longer, to enable decentralized technology to propagate and develop further, until it becomes unstoppable and it's viral propagation will continue until centralization has been completely replaced. Then the idea of poverty will no longer exist, as the means of production won't only be accessed via wages that are parasitized, but owned by individuals who retain the economic benefits of their labor entirely. If there's no transaction, there's no ability to parasitize it. No wages, no sales, no taxes.

Decentralization is freedom.

There's this book I've been reading... It's called Utopia for realists, I think you would really enjoy it.

I'll have a look.

Thanks!
