Post-Scarcity Economy and United Earth future visions
Public Group active 6 years agoThis group is meant for people that, through positive sci-fi story telling, want to divulge and promote the ideas of a Post-Scarcity Economy and that of a United Earth. What do I mean by these concepts? Think of the economy of Star Trek, where money is not used any more and the main motivation for action is to better oneself and the rest of humanity.
Coming to our age there are social cultural movements such as The Venus Project and The Zeitgeist Movement that have given a great depth of thought into the functioning of such a society.
This group is ultimately made to develop and popularize these ideals with the intention of having a real positive effect in the World.
