Technocracy and Libertarianism ?

Description

Communism and Capitalism are the same, with only slight variations of brainwashing used.
Both are Price Systems.
Rubles or dollars or Chinese 'money' now, it makes no difference.
Both enforce a caste/class system.
Neither will work in the future except as a caste class manipulation device.
Adam Smith or Marx... both equal a theory of 'commodity valuation' based on human labor.
A human can put out 1/20th of a horsepower. A machine any amount.
The replacement of humans, except for made up, non essential and pointless jobs, such as banking, insurance, the law, etc. effectively destroys purchasing power.

Our Price System dead ends itself. Mechanical energy has long ago outmoded our Price System. A reward and punishment system using money no longer is a viable method, as 'purchasing power' through 'work' is destroyed, and `` money " while possibly effective in the days of measuring scarcity, falls flat as a measure of abundance.
As an antique social control system the money system based in maintaining scarcity works though. To open this file, go up, to the left, in the 'view the book' box, and click the blue PDF.

Subject: Technocracy and Libertarianism.
Humans can be brainwashed into thinking they are lions and tigers.
Then they can be marched off to be sacrificed and are proud and fearless.
Our current Price System insures our continued destruction of the natural world.
When all choices are predicated on money all choices are made wrongly.
Political ideology's of left or right, Libertarian or Communist/Capitalist/Democratic etc. do not get at the actual dynamic of creating a 'good' i.e. , functional society.
The methods developed in a time of scarcity, before mechanization, are based on people control.
People control in the sense that people in those systems must be brainwashed to follow those systems, thus a real education is not given, those systems being based on abstract ideology which precludes real education. Technocracy opens a new field for creative endeavor. The current system destroys for profit(money).
