in my lifetime, the precarity, or desperateness, of people
has grown, enormously, continuously, and alarmingly!
while the educated, information society, is ever more rewarded,
efficient, and luxurious, the vast majority are left out.
as of the late 1980′s, more than half of all people ever alive are living now.
that the vast majority of us are living on the edge of desperation,
or in deep desperation, as of mid first decade of the third millennium,
means we are faced with a world, where advancing technology has enabled anyone to live like royalty,
while enforcing a society where the majority, of all humans ever having lived,
are currently either starving to death, in grave danger of doing so, or worse.
yet this technologia could engender an economy that could support most of us
in a style, that, still, very few have ever experienced.
we collectively have graver and graver impacts on our environments’
capacity to sustain us.
as a result of our individual desperate behaviors, we endanger all,
especially those who are not economically, and/or informationally, well endowed.
we must endeavor to reduce the general level of desperation among the masses,
else, even the rich will not be sustained.
the economic and information resources must not only no longer be
used against the interests of individuals, be put at the uses of the masses.
all individuals must learn to act less desperate,
to spare what
they can spare, like info, pleasant labor, and love, without suffering for loss.
and none not well enough off to spare these things, for indeed,
not sharing these things is itself loss, one we all share
all should be given their share of what our forbearers have handed down to us all.
the artistry, and knowledge of our predecessors should be available to all to mix,
and remix, and re-envision.

this is the only way back to an expanding economy,

over the hump of earths population limits combined with increasing disparity.
the corporations are just the most powerful of such individual actors, not the best organized;
governments and other organizations are routinely,
like corporations, programmed to act desperately,
and to produce more desperation amongst others in so doing.
Wither goes our party on this path? How desperate are we?
better, more human, communication, information, education,
and knowledge management,
allow us to fully share the most powerful resources
we have ever had, information, and the knowledge to use it with wisdom.
humanity, and many other species, are badly losing the class war,
to the point of threatened, virtual, or real, extinction!
to our cultural toolage?
our technology has been used to create an Earth,
where most humans, who ever lived,
can only wish they had the luxuries of the tribal hunter gatherer life.
from most, the land, resources on and in it, tribal political power,
and even the control, use, and benefit, of their own labor and information,
have all essentially been removed.
for most, a hunter/gatherer life seems palatial for it is,
compared to squatting in a land”fill”;
more control, sustainability, nutrition, resource redundancy, other securities,
more luxuries, time, and space.
the limitations of neigboring tribes seem like a small cost, the dangers, even of
tribal war is a small price when compared
to working in a sweat shop to poison yourself and your land,
to work yourself to the bone to create a useless luxury product,
for wages that could never cover the cost of the useful thing,
the luxury good is a bad imitation of.
to poison the air? or to be?
a more desperate choice,even, than kill or be killed,
more stressful, less rewarding if successful, more lethal if not.
makes tribal warfare look like fun!
tell someone feeling that desperate to preserve our environment,
there is only one answer, it is simple a question.
how do I survive?
a question more of us should be ready for a good answer to.
even among those who fare better, many are so stressed out,
they spend many resources and much time, trying to get hurt with panache,
in desperate sporting extremes.
the threat of our own extinction becomes the most likely prospect
of our superior ability to adapt to, and master, threats?
i don’t think so…
what kind of human nature, or rationale, is that?
none at all!
once the people seize the festival/party leadership,
first the lobbyists, then the politicians,
then the lawyers, cops, and soldiers,
may all be replaced,
then we will automate management and ownership out of their jobs
(they’ll beat us to it, you know they will; then it’s just a change of ownership).
at which point it will be time to sit the engineers down,
retrain them to engineer for user usability and desires.
then sit the users down, retrain them for co-design of their own lives,
and resource management, the fun, easy,
mySpace way
the dTao be much more earnestly sought,
and the way to being fully human well shown,
in a world of animal, eventually vegetale, peoples.
Gia’s new brain will wake up,
within years heaven on earth, lamb lies down with lion.
the new religion, respect your place, and all others, in the Allness.
the new technolgies will enable same.
to get there, we will automate management,
ownership, even visionaries, out of work.
no longer a job, the shared joy of striving to better our collective individual lives.
to preserve and embody the Earth’s behavioral and genetic information,
creating the beauty of her lifeways, expanding and diversifying them, protecting life,
the duty and pleasure of all.
but more than before, faster, more beautifully, more safely.
not ever less so.
every life will be secure, soon after, eternal.
the record will preserve you,
you will be completely, the record will record it completely,
the record will be you, you will be the record,
the record will be backed up, copied, distributed.
immortal
virtual immortality for some
will transform into real immortality for all Her creatures.
we all know the technical side of immortality is almost worked out.
even now, we have much farther than that to go to build a less vicious,
paranoid, precarious, and desperate world.
a world that can learn to share,
as our technology now demands,
of us all.
you cannot stop it, you may only assist,
something we can all agree on:
automate management and ownership out of a job!
