RE: Social Volunteer System - Please Comment
Sounds like a diversion of the idea behind the communism. It's perfect on paper but doesn't work in real world.
And the problem is not in the idea, it's the people.
It's good that you've given an example with a smaller population. In your case, the idea might be working properly for few generations.
But the problem is in our general drive to be aggressive and destructive. Our civilization is standing on these drives / as well as others of course /. In order to survive and create, we had to kill and destroy.
The idea destruction is not needed has emerged for like the past 100 years and I would say that we are not prepared for the world that you describe. Hence we might not even deserve one.
Of course this is my subjective opinion.
Thanks for your article. It's food for the thought :)
I don't advocate revolutions! I advocate evolution !
Enlightened Anarchy.
Thanks for your comment. I also agree that the people are the problem but for me the problem is that people can be so manipulated by the PR engine that entire generational cultures and social belief systems have been crafted by the ruling classes. The engineering of consent I think it's called. A great book I read on the current state of things is called "The global industrial complex" A collection of essays on the various parts of the machine. Highly recommend it.
