How about this system: instead of orienting society around serving and maximizing capital, we orient it around serving our own needs?
Capitalism is riddled with so much wasted time that doesn’t serve the needs of our society, and we are constantly over-producing and over-working to meet needs of capital.
There’s tons of evidence to support what I said above. I’d be happy to cite you more readings if you’re interested in exploring.
Not everyone has to farm and hunt. It was more than 200,000 years ago that humanity figured out how not to get all of us to farm and hunt, way before capitalism ever was a thing.
Speicalization in the context I used does not mean “be an expert at a thing”. It means “Spend most of your time doing just that one thing”. I can see why you were confused, I think my use of “pigeon-holed” was probably better than specializetion.
“oh you dont wanna sell your time? why not just die right there right? surely you would not have to sell your time then!!”
This is how stupid you sound. And if you read the rest of my post, I will repeat this again, I was talking about how I wish to live in a better society, not outside of society and in the woods. dont project.
