A journey out of the matrix and into a world of love (Solutions Pt 4)

Even a few months ago, the phrase "a world that runs on Love" would have left me in confusion and doubt. This entire series of posts has been my journey, past and recent, to be able to innerstand this phrase.

Put your dreaming caps on, here we go. The ground rules first.

There are no artificial lines on the mother, no countries, no borders. There is no money, currency, trading or bartering. Nothing has 'value' in the context of today's tradable value. The words rich and poor, wealth etc no longer pertain to value or money. There are no rulers, although there are rules - those of natural law. Sustainability is the highest priority in all endeavors. Love is the simple and only motivation for all actions.

Confused, head spinning about the practicality of this all? I was, but I got better. Remember this is the new world, post-transition; the transition is mooted later.

The first important point to remember is that anyone today who had a 'job' depending on money is no longer required and is free to do other things. A non-exhaustive list is in a prior post, but by my estimation it covers 70% of the population. A further few % is gone as all police, military, border control, passports etc are all redundant. Gone. So what do they do? What does anybody do? How does it all work? Realistically, we are going to go back to the future, we will adopt old-world techniques combined with modern knowledge and technology. Food will be grown everywhere, using permaculture techniques. There will still be global trade, but only for good reasons, such as coffee, which grows to good quality only in a few places. An apple grown in the UK will not be gassed and shipped for waxing and labelling to India where human labour is cheap, and then back again to the UK for sale - that happens today! We will have a glut of human energy, well not really, but which will be crucial during the transition.

If you remember way back in post #1, I declared some values, which did not directly include freedom, as I find that is implicit in all other values - peace, love, respect, cooperation etc. Freedom is paramount, and consent is crucial. The primary rule of natural law is the NAP - Non-aggression principle. Of course this is implicit in a world that runs on Love, but will form the backbone of the transition.

Freedom is the only word that carries anywhere near the weight of Love. Any living creature that is not free can not be truly happy. In this new world, everyone must be truly free, as this freedom keeps the spark of love alive, and is the key to motivation. Some people some of the time will need to do some hard work, and it may be quite unpleasant. And there will be no specific rewards for that, other than self worth.

All right lets get down to business: will there be grocery stores, and how will they get stocked? What about beer and wine? These are quite specific questions and while I have given great thought and discussion to them, the final answer is 'whatever it takes to make it work'. Will we still burn coal for energy? Who will make sure the water and sewage systems keep working, and the electrical grid? Remember that glut of excess human energy? Well that combined with an absolute desire for maximum quality and sustainability (as opposed to maximised profit today) the infrastructure of the world will be fine, and only get better. And as for food stores, sure local and distant food growers will have markets, people will still harvest and transport these, but without accounting constraints and plenty of folk to help out - 'job share' as it were. And these markets will not have a checkout - you just take what you need. Supply and demand is immutable; in today's world with rich and poor (far more poor) the poor create demand for cheap low quality disposable stuff. Which is filled today by countries like China. If you love growing food, that love turns into pride and everything you grow is high quality. And the love you get back from the people who eat your food gives you joy.

I hope a world run on Love will start to make sense over the next few days; there is a lot to take in.
