  Yes, idea is to spread power and not allow greed to take over. A Democratic Republic, i.e. a representative democracy is a good start but not good enough - we already have that in America & most countries worldwide, but that didn’t do much. What we need is widespread democratic socialism, i.e. market socialism i.e. co-ops, credit unions, open source etc.

  A greedy sociopathic leader with lack of empathy will always cause starvation, be it capitalism or communism or any other system anywhere. Shitty kings, dictators, and colonialists have always caused this since the beginning of time. It ain’t about the system.

  Brother, you and I are the universe recycled / reincarnated over and over again living life one day at a time like a real metaverse. This consciousness is a dream, although we can’t tell because we’re inside the dream. Unlike the dreams in our sleep, biting this finger hurts for real, but real is a thing you perceive just like how we perceive money to be real in an engaging game of Monopoly.

  Lovely comment. People live their entire lives maintaining a facade that they don't have the mental bandwidth to maintain as they age. Just maintaining that facade eats up your mental processing capacity. Moral of the story, drop the facade, drop the mask, embrace and be yourself, and live freely.

  50 years ago - you won't believe how many paper pushers we'll be able to get rid of once this invention called computers takes off!

  Also, man these robotic arms sure help automate our factories, but if you turn your head upside down you will see it as 'lowering the market value of human skills'.
