Balance and Evolution Part One

People don't need jobs. People need money. Here me out.

There are way too many people on the planet right now, but that's not going to change. In fact, it's likely to get much worse, and I suspect you know that's true.

What does it take to feed, clothe and shelter ourselves, and also accomplish the same for all the others? Does it take all of the able adult workforce to do it? Not hardly. My personal guesstimate is that we could do it with a fourth of the present workforce; the technology is there, shortening production time and labor needed. So let's put that fourth to work. Let's have them paid handsomely.

And let's have them taxed handsomely too, as well as the owners of those companies. And let's divide that tax money among the remaining three fourths of adults. Let's give them enough to have adequate but never opulent shelter, food and clothing. And maybe a little something more so that they can create all the luxury items for the working fourth.
