The good scenario against “robo-Capitalism”

[no more banksters]

We have defined as "robo-Capitalism" the situation in which all the economy and research will be guided by the need for increasingly efficient machines. This means, more or less, that human needs will become irrelevant for the elites who eventually will end to control all the resources and the means of production.

But, is there any alternative to this situation? Could things evolve differently, in a non-Dystopian way?

During the last three-four decades, we have experienced one of the most fascinating technological innovations in human history: the rise of computers and the internet. What we observed, is a rapid spread of this technology worldwide, mostly because of one of the most fundamental characteristics of classic capitalism: the chase for profit through competition. The technology escaped from the hands of governments, agencies, universities, and became accessible to most of the people in the developed world, while still being expanded in other geographical areas.

Should we expect something similar to happen with robots in the oncoming decades?

1. There are a lot of community leaders across the nation and probably the world who

are worried about what to do with the excess labor once robots displace millions of workers.

The bottom line is we're going to have to rethink our economy, the way we organize ourselves. We will have to begin making decisions as a species, not a bunch of nation states, or worse, a bunch of corporations. The bottom line in this new economy is going to be human need, not human greed.

Nothing can stop it. The only thing that we're in danger of is the capitalists driving us extinct with their war profitmongering and disregard for the earth and all upon it. Failing that, the good guys should win. Eventually.
