RE: And you claim to be 'awake', smdh.
The contribution is approximately 20k hours over a lifetime.
How you get those hours would be up to you and the type of work you choose to do.

20,000 hours is not too bad. A husband or spouse could work 15 hours a week for 30 years and hit that. I think it's good to do some work.
If we want stuff, somebody has to build the replicators.
There will be plenty to do, no worries there.
Somebody has to man the space stations.
The more stuff we want the more we have to work.
I think wealth creation and value are very important. I don't think our "assets" like cars should depreciate as much as they do. Depreciation destroys wealth. Bigger and more expensive houses cost more money and generally have higher taxes and fees associated. I think we could all have nice simple affordable houses and nice simple affordable vehicles that get good gas mileage and we should not need to work very much.
Thats the idea, more time to live life, less time in the mines to enrich the owners.
If i leave a working car, i have not consumed it, only a portion of its time.
Same with houses.
I think you should have as grand a house as you can build, or get folks to build for you.
When you die, it will pass into other hands.
Depreciation is a crapitalust trap.
Without money to enslave us it loses its meaning.
Without money there are no fees or taxes.
Unfortunately the government likes to tax nicer more expensive houses more and the bigger the house the more it costs to heat and cool it.
Some depreciation makes sense. Clothes and other things do wear out over time. I think it's unfortunate that people seem to overvalue new cars and undervalue used cars.
Money and other assets can enslave you or work for you.
Fees and taxes can happen even without money.
Can we have organization and order without getting robbed at gunpoint?
I think so.
It just requires reacquiring our shame.
And dont say it cant happen, any consent can be engineered.
Fees and taxes can exist without money, but not without force.
Again, if people are shamelessly bums then nobody is forcing you to interact with them.
You cant say that now.
No. Maybe in a feminist dream world it is possible but not in the real world.
You cant know until it has tried and failed without rule by force forcing its failure.
We still havent gotten that chance because freedom is not on the agenda, and never will be as long as the slaves continue to falsely think themselves free.
