BIG problem developed from monetizing EVERYTHING: People lost touch with their creativity. Many don't DO anything, are repressed, passive and "soul sick".
As an artist, I never wanted to do anything else. Didn't trade my "soul's desire" for illusion of security from a stable job. I've provided for myself, never gone without and enjoy every day.
Artists are stigmatized as lazy, misfits, flakes because people envy our courage to live by choice and flip off society's image of success.
We have to leave money behind, period. There is no alternative. Our needs can be met by automation and technology. When that happens there is no need to to motivate anyone to do anything. It's not necessary. What does a Gorilla do all day? Does any other gorilla care? Once our physical needs are met we are free to explore the capacity of our minds. We are not far away.
Deep gratitude for all that you do. Thank you!

I'm not saying everyone is an artist in the traditional sense, but everyone has a creative gift. But artists are examples for society.
Find some REAL artists who live by their own hands and ARE happy (not the bitter ones who envy wealth or fame).
Ask them for some pointers on how you might translate that to your own life.

true. modern day economists are one dimensional and feeble minded.
money should be used for advanced greater projects like roosevelt type new deals to build up a physical economy.
