Calling For Submissions To Develop Techism Theory And Guidelines

So, in order to replace capitalism as the main method of organizing materials-to-demand and labor-to-demand and as a (rather poor) driver of new technology implementation, it's necessary to develop a comprehensive set of guidelines to use in the implementation of Techism.

How do we replace money with technology - and eliminate the win/lose environment created by capitalism?

In order to succeed, Techism needs to:

  1. Preserve a basic quality of life for all human beings.
  2. Ensure survival of the species.
  3. Preserve the natural environment.
  4. Provide an efficient means of driving technology improvement, as well as advances in the arts, health, and humanities.
  5. Provide an efficient means of distributing resources to meet physical needs.
  6. Provide a path for the expansion of our biosphere throughout the rest of the Solar System and galaxy to ensure the long-term survival of life.
  7. Allow for a higher quality of life for individuals who contribute more.
  8. Foster creativity.
  9. Provide a safe means of conflict resolution.
This seems to me a minimum of basic goals. To me, these are all equally important.  They are not numbered in any order of priority, but in the order that they occur to me.

So who has ideas to contribute toward using technology to implement any of the nine goals of Techism?

Just a brief post to get things rolling...

This blog is intended to be a focused discussion of a new vision for societal organization that bypasses all the old "isms" - capitalism, communism, socialism, plutarchism, oligarchism, egalitarianism - with the founding principles of a technologically-oriented society that does efficiency without heartlessness. All other forms of social organization were based on methods of organization and resource allocation that were designed when paper was the highest technology going.

In the modern era of information technology, automation, and the budding access to the raw material resources of the entire solar system, it is time to design a new and constantly-evolving system for society, one that leaves no one behind and puts only those who perform at the forefront.

There is far, far more to this vision than these simple words, and this is only the barest start on creating a formulated structure for this vision for humanity, but it will come.

The Universe is waiting...
