- Dear friends, I watched your presentation on automation, the declini...ng role of human labor and a guaranteed basic income. It was offered by DW Global 3000 see link below, I enjoyed it very much, I agreed with its sentiment. As pointed out by Sabine however, funding people who are out of work by taxing of people who are still working, is not likely to work! Which brings us back to the question of 21st century livelihood's. http://www.dw.com/en/global-3000-the-future-of-labor/av-36211780 There can be no question regarding the fact of automation and the declining role of human labor. However as pointed out in your excellent presentation a guaranteed basic income is unlikely to take place providing for access to the basic necessities of housing, food, wellness care, transportation, energy, etc. on a widespread basis, for all in need. So we remain left with the question of how to resolve this calamity, given prevailing global socioeconomic reality. This is an issue many of us have been exploring for 30 years or more. If we delegate selection of how to handle this to top level corporate/governmental policy makers we will get more of the same minimally effective solutions. These solutions have not stopped the decline of livelihood opportunities let alone do anything to turn the overall trend. Fortunately we have had a solution all along. Unfortunately the solution becomes self evident typically at the same time it becomes out of reach to implement on an individual basis. The solution I and others see that is within reach, on a widespread basis is, the 21 century agrarian craft based sustainable village. A cooperative model of living and livelihood for all who so need or so wish regardless of income. For the 21 century agrarian craft based villages to play its part in meeting the needs of the citizenry, initial capitalization remains the major challenge for land, tools, materials and funds to support the people who initially undertake this project. While this approach is already being practiced on a small scale, it has no chance to turn the tide on any of these issues on a widespread basis, as it currently stands. The reason for this is initial capitalization is out of reach of most individuals regardless of the mid and long term costs being low and the return being high. It is my intention to establish such a village as a pilot project, with the ultimate goal of establishing a world wide network of them. This is a task for a team of people, if you find it of interest I look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely, Jayme Delson jayme@humboldt1.com See More
