Ubuntu - A Society without Money

The way technology is going paired with capitalism would pretty much accomplish the missions of these resource based economies. 3D printers as one example are the first step in bringing production into homes which will be a real game changer. Once food can be printed at home with inexpensive raw materials (which is possible with cultured meat, and vertical farms) and the cost of energy falls the future might just be too cheap to meter. And with all the basics are met and the desperation is removed, and the only times you would leave home are for truly voluntary interactions with people the social benefits will be enormous.

(Literal) food for thought:

brilliant video shares.. thanks for that. exciting

The meat part is stretching it too much for me , I dislike direct influencing of anything, it's one thing to have a few cows and care for them farm and so on , it's another to be a wrapped package consumer , I would argue one is bad , simply because you are missing out, you aren't being there with the animal ,or more likely the producer , or at the very least at the distributor , you can never know where your food is grown and I hate the cross continent production and distribution , I would like to see more local communities , rather than a matrix , that makes both processes equal so to say.

The second video is news for me :) , I had ran into a few kickstarters trying out that idea but hadn't seen it in action. Looks like a good way to start production , or keep as a backup , when hails or drought can destroy your crops , but I like the old ways so to speak and think there is so much more we can explore rather than go for the easy solutions.

Going through the hurdles makes you stronger , or at the very least gives you experience. I would like to have people growing their food locally at their terraces even, but the land shouldn't be neglected.

Here is the latest thing which amazed me , found it a month ago.

Now I'm off to learn more about cultured meat, thanks.
