Day 195: Why Don't You Get Paid Enough?



How is it that the vast majority of us go to jobs where the profit of our labor goes to someone else? Does that even make sense in any conceivable way? How could we have possibly accepted such a system? I mean, it is really bad mathematics. You should get out what you put in, therefore if you put in your labor, you should get out the benefit or the compensation for that, so how is it that the average worker at the ‘bottom’ of the job hierarchy, the ones that do the actual day to day labor which is the ‘backbone’ of the business itself, gets the least pay of all?

This shows that we’ve got a real malfunction with our value system. We’ve got individuals doing the labor, but the value goes to someone else, and really it goes to a minority, so that they can live lives of luxury, while those doing the actual labor aren’t paid enough to be able to cover all their basic needs. 

I mean, it is a really twisted and warped situation and when you take a step back and really look at the big picture, it is really quite psychotic to have most of us working so hard, just trying to survive, having to forgo many of our basic needs like proper healthcare, when the value of our labor which we created through our labor, goes…somewhere…else… It goes to someone else who did not do the labor, instead of to those who created the value in the first place.

What’s fascinating is that in working for a large corporation, at staff meetings, the equal importance of every employee position is professed – but then, why aren’t all positions equally valued – by being equally compensated for their equal importance? It’s the manager’s job to tell you that you are appreciated and the work you do for the company is appreciated, and it sure is, all the way to the bank by those who are profiting off of the labor of others. 

Talk is cheap, literally. We all know that we have collectively decided that the only thing in this reality that has value is – MONEY. You need it to buy your right to life – without it you die, and your life has no value. Thus to express appreciation and importance of employees is just empty words, because those words do not put food on the table, or provide you with an effective education, or proper healthcare. 

Now, within the Capitalist system, as we’ve accepted it, you need to have a job to get money to be able to live. So how is it, we allow jobs to exist which don’t provide adequate MONEY to ensure you are able to LIVE properly, and not just ‘getting by’ paycheck to paycheck or like many, going into credit card debt. Why would we allow this, it just doesn’t make sense. Because we know the job you have is how you make your living, so why would we deliberately allow some to have ‘less of a living’ than others? Certainly, no one needs LESS LIVING. No one needs a POOR quality of life. No one needs to suffer through ailments that could have been prevented because they can’t get the proper healthcare.  

Obviously, the only reason that so many are doing such jobs is that there isn’t a better option. I mean, it’s really simply math, to see how there simply isn’t enough jobs out there that pay properly for one to have a dignified living, and so the majority is going to get stuck with the inferior compensating jobs. I mean, take Costco for example, who pays their employees and average of $17 per hour. That is above and beyond what the majority of jobs out there pay. And you know what, the waiting list for applications to Costco, I was told when I applied, is three years long…

That’s no surprise is it? Because who wants the lesser paying job? Less pay means less quality of life. Nobody wants that. So why do we allow that? Is it necessary? No. Why is it not already so, that employees gets the value they create? Because the value the employees create, it is created, and it exists, and it goes somewhere. It goes into the hands of those at the top.

This is literally modern day slavery. Just because you get the tiniest possible portion of the value you create is enough to make you think you’re not a slave after all, because you’re being compensated, apparently. But this very basic simple math principle was not understood. If you’re creating X amount of value, how come you’re only getting a spec of that?

This problem is one that will be corrected within Equal Money Capitalism – compensation will be actual compensation to those who have actually done the labor. All aspects of a job will be equally compensated, because all are equally important, and everyone has the equal need to live and have their physical needs met and the highest possible quality of living, which is leaps and bounds above what is available to most but is available to the select few who have all the money. Profit that goes to the hands of a few to live lives of luxury while the rest suffer in survival will no longer exist, as it is a crime against life and humanity. 

The Result of this will be a great Reward where Stress from lack of Money will cease to exist – no more having to forgo proper healthcare because your low-minimum wage job doesn’t provide benefits while certainly not providing enough to buy benefits as an individual, leading to more and more health problems with lasting effects, which could have all been prevented with the proper care. I mean, how much do companies really value their employees if they don’t care if they remain in proper health? It doesn’t matter to the companies, because the low-wage jobs are also low-skilled jobs, and there is always plenty of individuals needing jobs that they can just hire another one when one employee gives out, and in this way, you’re literally used just like a battery, sucked dry until there’s nothing left, and then discarded and replaced with a ‘fresh’ one.

This is what our lives have become, just like in the Matrix – batteries for the system, and as anyone with a low paying job knows and is going through, that is not really living. This isn’t what life should be like, or has to be like. All can have a dignified life, once we no longer allow the scam of profits being diverted into the hands of a few, and make sure the money is going where it is needed. Just like the human body – ensures that the blood travels to all parts, and distributes the resources the physical body requires to all its parts. Imagine – if the body did not do this, but functioned like our system does now, how long would that human body last? Not long, before it would start to fall apart. So in the human body we have a real example of how to effectively operate as a functioning whole that functions at optimum capacity, which is obviously when every part is provided what one needs and is supported to the utmost, to function and be the best that it can be.

Imagine – what kind of a humanity would we have then? Where what we do we do because of the value we create, not because it’s what we have to do because it’s the best we could get. I mean, that is slavery. Most of us are actually slaves, because we didn’t choose what we’re doing, we’re doing it because it’s our means to survival. Imagine when your survival is not at stake – when we have a system in place that ensure you are effectively supported, and even has a buffer system in place for those that would find themselves in between jobs for a moment, because, when that happens now it is like a great fear and uncertainty and most of us will do what we can to stay with the job we’ve got, and not take the risk of trying to find something else, because what if it doesn’t work out, could we get our old job back, who knows and then how will I pay my bills, because most of us can’t even miss a paycheck. I mean, is that any way for the companies that exist today to be treating their valued employees that do the labor for them? To allow them to be in such risk and uncertainty for their very survival? Obviously not, obviously the companies and corporations today that do not provide equal compensation for their employees are a disgrace. 

Imagine a life where what you do is actually what you like to do, you were able to choose, without fear of being broke and not being able to put food on the table. I mean, it’s really like we are living in the Dark Ages. We have never come out of that, and it’s in fact only gotten worse. We as humanity have every capability to exist where everyone is supported to have the best possible life, so it’s really quite evil that we have that capability and yet – haven’t put that into application. We’ve become so caught up into the ‘daily grind’ it’s like we’re on ‘auto-pilot’ just going through the motions, day in, day out, to Paranoid to consider change, because our situation is so unstable as it is, we don’t want it to get any worse. But – realize – it IS going to get worse UNLESS you stand up for a change, to make it BETTER, and sort out this system to ensure that it is functioning properly as an Economic system is Supposed to do – provide the best life possible for everyone – not just one or two here and there while the majority is enslaved to jobs that only exist for the sake of making profit and which are actually causing harm to our earth and ecosystem with no regard for life whatsoever. 

This can change, all it takes if for us to walk that change into reality. Get involved and start your process of self education of how reality could be when lived in common sense support of life:

Day 184: Equal Money Capitalism Ends WAR through PREVENTION


Prevent Consequence



War

In this blog, I’m now going to be walking a series on war that will go into detail about the various aspects of War. War, is a problem. Actually, it is a whole lot of problems all rolled into one. And there is no Real benefit from War, there is only the Monetary benefit to a few individuals who profit from the Big Business that is War.

War is not something that could normally be justified. It is not something that the Human would naturally do, without the intervention of various methods of Psychological manipulation. Starting from practically the moment a child enters this world, begins their education into ‘how to be a human being’ and how to conduct oneself in this world and reality.

Here are a couple of very relevant quotes:

A child come into this world and follow instructions --unfortunately the instructors do not instruct what is best for all and thus the child become what they are taught -- unable to be part of one body of life as equals -- thus--it is important to first unconditionally unlearn what has been accepted as reality to be able to recreate self to what is best for reality -- that is how one become one and equal with what is real as only what is best is real -- there will never be leaders or anyone to be followed --only instructions to build inner structure with. - Bernard Poolman

Information control and rewriting history to a NEW MEMORY to create NEW CHARACTERS in society that OBEY, is everything in the game to have Monopoly control --This extended to all facets of society--family, education, church, psychology,economic --so that NOTHING provided as information can be trusted and NO ONE is in fact able to trust their own thoughts as they have been IMPLANTED -- study the solution if you can hear me and not react to me in fear as you have been programmed to do - in this realize that All Feelings and ALL emotions are Engineered FEAR -- thus Consciousness is the Bubble of Fear that acts as the Energy Prison - Bernard Poolman

Here are some essential documentaries for you to make the time to watch to get an understanding of human nature to firstly even understand how something so Ill-Logical as War can be accepted even to this day, which stands as proof that humanity has not ever really evolved.

The Century of the Self


“The Century of the Self is a British television documentary series by Adam Curtis. It focuses on how the work of Sigmund Freud, Anna Freud, and Edward Bernays influenced the way corporations and governments have analyzed,‭ dealt with, and controlled ‬people.” 

This documentary explains and shows how psychological manipulation of desires and fears has been utilized to manipulation and control society that shows how we’ve been implanted with ideas and beliefs that effect our behaviour and what we accept and allow as Our Reality.

Human Resources: Social Engineering In The 20th Century

“Brilliant…Riveting…The amount of material the filmmaker covers and unifies is astounding…Human Resources diagnoses the 20th century.” - Stephen Soldz, Professor, Boston Graduate School of Psychoanalysis; President, Psychologists for Social Responsibility

This documentary shows the experimentations that were done which show that we are not born with fear but that it is learned as a conditioned behavior, and how this has been utilized for manipulation and to breed separation and hate for the purpose of keeping us from working together to actually change our economic system and stop the abuse of life, and which forms the justification for us to actually accept going to war against each other. When war never leads to an actual solution, to actual real lasting effective change where we can live in a world in harmony with each other, but simply leads to more hate and war, which those who profit off of war are quite fine with. Yet everyone else suffers the loss of quality of life in uncountable ways, including actual loss of life. Let’s look at some of the main ways that war ruins life.

The Power Principle

“A gripping, deeply informative account of the plunder, hypocrisy, and mass violence of plutocracy and empire; insightful, historically grounded and highly relevant to the events of today.This documentary is about the foreign policy of the United States. It demonstrates the importance of the political economy, the Mafia principle, propaganda, ideology, violence and force.

It documents and explains how the policy is based on the interest of major corporations and a tiny elite to increase profits and the United States governments own interests in maintaining and expanding it’s imperialistic influence.

Inside the United States this has been made possible with a propaganda of fear for the horrible enemies like the Soviet Union, Communists and so on and a love for “free markets”, “democracy”, “freedom” and so on.Externally (and increasingly internally) this has caused massive poverty and suffering, genocide, war, coups, crushed unions and popular movements and environmental destruction.”

Psywar

“Psywar explores the evolution of propaganda and public relations in the United States, with an emphasis on the elitist theory of democracy; and the relationship between war, propaganda, and class”.








The Trap documentary series

This series consists of three one-hour programmes which explore the concept and definition of freedom, specifically, "how a simplistic model of human beings as self-seeking, almost robotic, creatures led to today's idea of freedom."








Now that you are up to speed on how it is we’ve come to accept war, that it’s not a natural expression of humanity, it had to be indoctrinated through psychological manipulation, and that the real purpose of it is for a few to make money and profit from it, we’ll now look at some of the main problems that come from war, in a list that is by no means exhaustive, and if you can see more problems not listed here, please share them in a comment to this post, as it may be featured in a future post as we will be looking into many of the numerous problems related to war in blogs to come.


Problems


Human Casualties

 

One of the most obvious points about wars – people get injured and killed. Not only Soldiers fighting in the war, but Civilians as well including children and elderly. People are maimed and suffer all kinds of harmful conditions, from all variety of weapons – explosive, projectile, incendiary, blades, blunt objects, chemicals, rape, etc. This is obviously not the kind of experiences that anyone would want to go through, and thus should not be done to anyone – no exceptions, as the point is only to cause physical harm and damage.


Overburdened Medical System

 

It also cause a lot of effort that takes place in the attempt to care for all the wounded and dying, and thus puts a massive strain on our medical systems which do not normally handle sudden massive influxes of wounded with all variety of conditions/injuries.


Disease

 

In places where there is a lack of sufficient care for the dead and wounded, in terms of dealing with mass amounts of dead bodies and wounded individuals, all kinds of disease and virus can spring up, causing a whole other host of problems to deal with. Poorer regions are particularly susceptible to this. Not to mention the usage of biological warfare.


Psychological Disorder

 

There is also the psychological effects of going through a war experience such as PTSD – Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Then there is also the aspect of Child Soldiers as children that are forced to take part in killing, who suffer psychological effects. I mean, war and killing does not make any sense. It’s obvious common sense that no one wants to go through the atrocities of war, and if one thinks they ‘do like war’, this is an indication of serious brainwashing, where one’s imagination has been captured through the impulsing of war as ‘fun’ and ‘entertaining’ and ‘exciting’ and has no ability to reason in a rational way, just as we’ve seen within the above documentaries, where one becomes programmed to have a positive reaction to violence, which is not a normal tendency but has to be conditioned in through repetition of connecting a positive experience toward violence. This is typically one who has not gone through an actual war experience, but only has an idea of it through, for example, video games or movies and stories that glorify war and being a soldier, and where when faced with reality, find out it is not so cool. It is really only when faced with a threat to one’s survival or the survival of one’s family, that one is driven to participate in war, and thus why our economic system plays a vital role in how individuals are even able to be convinced to kill each other – because it is their job as source of income with which to survive and provide for their families. If the threat of survival were not there, many would not make the choice to go to war - why take such a ridiculous risk if you didn’t have to.


Destruction of the Environment

 

The use of all kinds of weaponry does vast damage to the environment, such as toxic chemical warfare which doesn’t get properly cleaned up, even unused chemicals that don’t get properly disposed of, the effects of nuclear weaponry, and even just simply blowing things up. All this wreaks extensive damage to our environment/ecosystem, which is what supports us to live, and as such to destroy our ecosystem is to destroy ourselves. And all these things are still causing damage to this day, for example, there are still people being blown up by landmines leftover from where a battle had taken place, and mustard gas is still found inside trees that are cut down in forests where the gas was used during battle, and not to mention testing of nuclear bombs which has left devastating effects. All this destruction also displaces, destroys, and even causes mutation in animals and plants, which puts further pressure on our ecosystem.


Technology & Engineering

 

We’re spending our time developing all number of technological devices, weapons, vehicles, drones, all for the sake of war, instead of putting this effort and expertize into technology that can assist humanity, with for example providing clean drinking water to all, provided electricity to all, internet access to all so that everyone has equal access to information, automating jobs that are unpleasant for humans to do and eliminating harmful jobs by providing the best equipment to get jobs done, and developing alternative and sustainable ways of utilizing the earth’s resources, especially by developing alternatives to fossil fuels which are a finite resource that we utilize in almost everything we produce and consume on a regular basis – that should be one of the foremost priorities within technology today, not developing weapons to kill people.


Starvation & Lack of Necessities

 

The destruction of crops and the blocking of trade routes prevent areas from getting the necessary resources to live. Sometimes water supplies and electrical supplies will be purposefully cut off to regions, resulting in much suffering

Fighting over resources, but not because there isn’t enough – because we’re not effectively sharing it with all who need it, and taking measures to ensure all have it. There are wars fought over water – can we provide everyone with enough water? Yes. There are wars over energy – can we provide everyone with enough energy? Yes. There are wars over food – can we provide everyone with enough food? Yes. The problem, and why it seem like there is not enough, is because much of what we produce is being used up in our consumerism based system, where massive amounts of what we produce is thrown away even before it used, and much of what we do use, is only used briefly before it is then thrown away as well, while the recycling that we do is only a teeny tiny fraction of what we consume, thus we are squandering the resources we have like a glutton who is eating so fast he can’t even get all the food in his mouth and it is spilling out the sides, and then making sure that whatever falls out is destroyed so no one else can have it as you can’t sell it and make a profit.

These are just some of the prominent problems caused by War, and as I mentioned earlier, if you notice more, add them in a comment below.


Solutions


Change our Starting Point

 

The Solution to End War, is actually rather profoundly simple, that it is hard to believe. Hard to believe that with such a simple solution, we would still be allowing war to take place, when it cause such extensive suffering and effects all aspects of our lives. Yet the implementation will be less simple. The solution is to change our starting point from self interest, where we’re only looking out for me, mine, my own, my group, my religion, my country, my friends, my family, as when we are not considering everyone here equally, we are leaving some out of the equation, and that creates a condition of ‘force’ where we force each other to have to ‘fend for ourselves’ and essentially become each other’s enemy, instead of simply practically all working together, just like the cells in a properly functioning physical body. If the cells in your body were to develop hatred toward each other and stop cooperating and start fighting, the body no longer functions and would die.

As we’ve seen in those documentaries above, the reasons that we’ve come to accept and justify war were implanted, enmity was created and fear tactics utilized to control our psychological state, to apply a particular Psyche Logic that would make us go to War for the Profit of a few, under the justification of the apparent ‘need’ to control humanity for the benefit of all – yet it obviously has not benefited all, you can follow the money to see it has landed in only a few’s pockets while the rest are Left Out.

So fundamentally we require to change from 'survival mode', as there really is no threat anymore to our survival, except ourselves. We possess all the resources and technology to all live in harmony, so it is simply these points of accepted separation that we're holding onto, that's keeping us fighting each other for our survival.

YET, this is Likely to Never Happen as long as we have an economic system that puts us in a FORCED position of Fighting For Survival as Lack is purposefully induced for the sake of driving up demand to make more profits,. Poverty is allowed because there is no Profit in Ending it. And so if you don't have Money, you Have Less, and you are going to do what it takes to Get What you Need. Thus we necessitate fighting each other, and therefore distrust and hatred and violence, as those in lack which are Not PROVIDED For like those who Are supported by the system, must then TAKE what they need. So we are literally Forcing Our own Hand within our current economic system.


Thus what brings us to the next point, that is really the priority point -

Correcting the Economic System

The Key to End War, id to Prevent it, which means to stop Forcing us into the position of having to Fight and Take from each other, by simply Giving to Everyone what is Needed. When we Ensure that all of life including our ecosystem as nature and the animals, is properly cared for – there is nothing to fight over. This means changing the way we value money in the current system, from where currently we allow the value to be manipulated for the sake of profiting off of other’s labor, and changing to instead have the value of money reflect the value of life, so Life become what is Valued, and money actually become the tool that it was meant to be – to facilitate the effective distribution of resources of the Earth to all.

Thus the initiation of Equal Money Capitalism, in which we are correcting Capitalism where it is found to not be effectively supporting Life, so that it in fact functions as a system that cares for all, instead of supporting only a few while exploiting the rest of humanity and causing world-wide suffering and destruction. As we go into more detail of the various aspects of War in posts to come, so too will we cover in more detail, the solutions to be applied for each particular condition.

Equal Money Capitalism

Rewards

What would be the rewards of living in world without war?

Technology used only for the Benefit of life

No More Human Casualties

No More Polluting and Destruction of the Environment

No More having KILLING being a way to make a LIVING

No More Disease and Psychological Disorders from War

No Fear of War Happening

Peace of Mind Living in a world where War does not Exist

In posts to come, we will take a more in-depth look at the points listed here, in terms of getting into the nitty-gritty the Problems caused by war, the specific Solutions to apply, and the Rewards we stand to gain, which is nothing short of Heaven on Earth. So we’ll get into just what that means – stay tuned for more on WAR.

    Equal Money & Economist's Journey to Life

    The Problem:


    In a system where employment is how you survive, unemployment is a massive problem. Earning money through being employed, is how you put food on the table, a shirt on your back, buy medicine or go to the doctor when you’re sick, put a roof over your head, and how you support your children in all those necessities of life as well, among other things. Thus if you don’t have a job, you lose all means to support yourself, and your family.

    We currently do not effectively utilize the workforce in the world, as the potential we could reach if everyone was effectively trained and employed. There is a lot of work to be done in this world that is not being done, plenty to create jobs for everyone, jobs that involve taking care of this planet in ensuring that we are using resources in such a way that is sustainable. Ultimately, the way we are using the earth’s resources currently is at a rate that cannot be sustained for long, and thus once those resources run out, many many jobs will be lost. Like for example in the oil industry, where oil is used in practically all the products we buy and utilize, and within the production processes to create them, and the processes with which to extract the resources from the earth that we make them from.

    Not enough skills/training


    We don’t ensure that each and every individual is provided with support to develop most effectively, to be able to have the skills to perform jobs other than the low paying low skill labor. It’s not a level playing field, and as such the majority are stuck at the ‘bottom’ of the job food-chain, literally working in food chains, and jobs such as in the retail and service sectors, which is actually a form of slavery.

    How it is now, is most employers offering the more ‘decent’ paying jobs are looking for skilled labor, those with degrees or training or previous experience in the particular field, and often a combination or all of those. So that excludes a large portion of the population who has none of those, and practically no way to get any skills or training as they don’t have enough money to afford it, and they are left to compete with everyone else in the same situation for the low paying service jobs that are available.

    Not enough jobs


    In the current system there are not enough jobs in order to have everyone effectively employed and earning an effective income. Many of the larger corporations get hundreds and hundreds of applications, but are only going to hire a few, and what happens to the rest? Throughout the world unemployment is a massive problem, where we have places of extreme poverty where individuals are hanging on to survival day by day and thus don’t have a place within labor system through which to earn an income to survive.

    The starting point of this system is not to make sure that everyone is effectively placed within a job. It is for businesses to make the most profit possible while limiting costs as much as possible. As such, most jobs do not pay a fair wage that is enough to provide one with everything needed to live a dignified life. And we don’t make sure that every individual has been provided the opportunity to get the best training and education into practical skills that can be applied. This works out for those who have companies that make money off of other’s labor, as currently unskilled labor gets paid less for their time, and since they don’t have the skills to get better jobs, they have no choice but to go for the lower paying jobs like retail and food service. Which is really an ineffective use of labor, as those jobs just work to support profit gains and not actually provide a real benefit to life. Most of those things can be automated, like is already in place in for example grocery stores which have self checkout aisles. The only reason there is a person there is to make sure no one is stealing anything, which people do when they don’t have effective money to buy things, as stealing is never the first choice. If you enough money for everything you need, you’ll just buy it and not take the risk.

    There are millions in the world that are unemployed, that is millions of people who could be participating in the system, but we haven’t effectively made sure that we are properly creating jobs so that there is enough for everyone, and that no matter what your situation, you are either provided with a job, or with the training to develop the skills to do a job. And often those at the ‘bottom’ of the job food-chain, often have to work more than one job as one just doesn’t provide enough income to effectively support oneself.

    And then we have unemployment benefits to assist those who aren’t finding work, which only allows them to subsist while not changing the job situation in any way. And there are people that get angry at this, and blame them for not working, while ignoring that the problem is systemic in nature, as the system is blatantly failing to effectively direct Labor. And the longer you go without a job, the less likely you are to get hired, as employers don’t want people who have not been working for a while and maybe have gotten soft and haven’t been using their skills for a while and might be rusty, compared to someone who has just been working.

    Abuse of labor


    Unemployment is also allowed in order to take advantage of having more demand for jobs than there are jobs available, by those who have companies that make money off of other’s labor. As if there is more employees than there are demands, this puts the advantage on the business’ side, as they can have worse conditions such as low pay, no benefits, etc, and there will always be people who have no other choice but to take what is offered, as there is always an endless supply of people desparate to have some kind of income.

    Abuse of animals and nature


    Due to lack of sufficient jobs for everyone, individuals in dire situations have had to find any way possible to make money to survive, which has led to all kinds of abuse to nature and animals, like skinning animals alive to make clothing items and accessories which aren’t needed, but can provide those individuals with some money to survive.

    Monopolies


    Monopolies push out other competition by taking over a market and doing everything for cheaper by externalizing costs and paying employees less, which causes smaller businesses to go belly up as they can’t compete with the cheapness, and thus many jobs are lost for less quality jobs , putting more strain on the job market.

    Machinery


    When machinery is utilized to replace human labors, there is no structure in place to ensure that those whose positions have been taken over by machines have effective support to get into another position, and now there is even more competition in the job market.




    The Solutions:

    Full employment:


    Employment
    One of the current problems is unemployment. Employment is the means through which each one acquires the means with which to sustain themselves - as, in return for one's contribution, one receives an income. Therefore - full employment is not a negotiable subject - because if one is not employed, one loses all means of supporting oneself.” (Day 162: EQUAL MONEY CAPITALISM - The Way Forward)

    How to Ensure Full Employment?
    Q: How do we make sure everyone is employed; will we have to create meaningless jobs like in the army – dig a hole, cover a hole?

    A: There are many jobs that require to be done that aren't being done at the moment - the Earth is barely taken care of. Remember that a company’s responsibility will extent further than merely the production of goods and services. Each company will have a Compassion and an Environmental Department.

    Compassion Departments are a social function. Such departments will assist, for instance, with giving care to the elderly, organising and providing daycare, assisting victims of natural disasters and so on. Individuals whose jobs within the production process are replaced by technology, will instead be employed within the Compassion Department of the company and continue to receive their income.

    Environmental Departments of a company fulfil the function of giving as one would like to receive. Companies will use resources from the Earth and will likely create pollutants that affect the environment. The Environmental Departments are in charge of giving back to the Earth in terms of assisting the environment to renew the resources that were taken, for instance, through tree-planting, creating dams, etc. Furthermore, it will assist within mitigating or stopping the negative effects of pollutants, such as, for instance, water or air purification.

    Once everyone is employed and all meaningful jobs are being done - we decrease working hours. For instance, if a job requirement is 8 hours, 2 people can do 4 hours each. Also - people don't have to work for 60 years of their lives - we can go on retirement when we are 30-40.” (Day 168: The Future of Integrity with Equal Money Capitalism)


    "OVERTIME / FREE TIME
    The point will be to optimize FREE TIME

    Overtime - working past your regular hours. There will be no need for overtime, it will be unnecessary, because it is not your labour that holds the value - it is your life and all life is valued equally. Overtime would only come into play when for instance a natural disaster occurs and those assisting are required to lend a helping hand for longer than usual because the situation demands so in that case, one doesn't get paid for overtime - because it is a point of compassion and understanding - and to show that one is more than a self-interested human. Overtime now only exists so people can make more money - so they can buy more stuff - in EMC - you will have enough money to buy what you actually need. All economic slavery jobs where people are forced to do it to survive will end if people do not have to do it

    Will we have more free time in an EMC - definitely - as we employ all the labour of each person - it will take less time to get the same job done. Every person will still work the same amount of time - this must be agreed on by all. For those whose jobs simply doesn't take up that much time or if a person's job is replaced by that of a machine - the Compassion Department of the Company will take care of you. This Department of the company creates jobs that will benefit society as a whole.

    Sufficient pay:


    ... WHAT IS PROFIT-SHARE?
    Currently profit is the money a company makes after they have covered their costs, including paying out wages. In an EMC - profit comprises of all the added value that is placed on resources - which is your labour. Therefore - within the price, the percentage share must be included of each one that was part of the creation of the product in such a way that each one ends up with an equal share of the company's profits, so - there will be no need for wages - as the profit becomes your wage.

    EQUALIZING WAGES – COOPERATION AMONG CORPORATIONS
    If a company at any time makes more money than they need to provide each one with their equal share of the profit as well as covering their costs - those monies will go into a fund that is responsible for assisting companies that are not making sufficient to cover their costs and provide each one with their fair share. That way a balancing effect takes place so that all companies are not only cooperatives in how they cooperate internally - but all cooperate with each other as well…." (Day 163: Equal Money Capitalism - Redefining Profit)

    Community Based Companies:

     

    Monopolies
    Q: Will we only have a few companies doing the same thing? And will the work be divided up? Like, will a company have a certain part of the world to look after?

    A: With EMC, we are moving away from monopolies, where a select amount of big corporations has control over particular products. Companies will be far more regional and community based as companies will exist from a point of responsibility towards their particular community. Within EMC, providing goods and services is not an opportunity to ‘hit it big’ in the world – it is how one contributes to society to make Life on Earth a worthwhile experience for everyone. When companies are locally based and operational, transport costs will of course also be cut down, which will reduce pressure on the environment.” (Day 170: Companies and Industries in EMC)



    So, firstly, full employment will be treated as a necessity, as everyone requires employment to provide one and one’s family with an income.

    By ensuring proper compensation for one’s labor through Equalizing Profit-Share, no one will need to work more than one job, and won’t need to work as many hours, or in compromising conditions, to still earn an income that will support one effectively, thus reducing the need for so many jobs as we will get more out of less. And through the Equalizing of Wages and the aspect of Cooperation among Corporations, this will stabilize companies, which stabilizes job security for individuals, as we won’t have companies going belly up thanks to giant corporation monopoly take-overs pushing out all the competition.

    The Environmental Department will provide many jobs once we start to look at effectively taking care of and cleaning up the Earth.

    The Compassion department will open up many jobs that provide support and assistance to those requiring it, such as the elderly, childcare, and disaster relief.

    Thus, we will have plenty of jobs, and the time one needs to spend working to make enough to effectively support oneself will decrease. Companies will be stabilized so that there is no worry about a company failing and losing one’s job, and if for some reason a company ends, like if for example it is decided a company is not needed and is closed down, or you are not getting enough hours, or your job is replaced by a machine, there is the Compassion Department that will take care of you.

    The Rewards:


    At an Individual Level


    For most individuals this means you will no longer have to worry about job security or financial security. You’ll no longer have to work overtime to make ends meet. You won’t have to work most of your life, you’ll be able to retire much earlier in life.

    No more fear about how to get a job, or a decent job that pays enough. No more filling out countless job applications to probably not be picked, from a selection of jobs that are really only slavery jobs and not an actual benefit to life. Thus you’ll have real job satisfaction, no longer feeling like your job is just going to give someone else profits while you slave your life away.

    All stress in individuals, couples, families, due to financial/job instability will vanish, as one’s survival no longer ‘hangs in the balance’ and one is no longer competing with everyone else to get the jobs available and hopefully one that pays enough and doesn’t require one to spend most of your time working. You’ll have more time to actually enjoy life, time to spend with your family, and doing the things you would like to pursue but are always too busy working.

    On a Global Level


    We’ll stop destroying the Earth through unsustainable practices, and cut down the pressure we’re putting on the ecosystem by utilizing so many excess resources in jobs that are of no benefit to life, or are simply not making sure they are not having a detrimental effect on the environment.
    All the abuse taking place within the labor system currently and slave labor will end, there will be no unfair labor practices. This means ending Animal abuse where individuals utilize animals simply to create products that aren’t necessary just to provide themselves and their families with some income to survive.

    Thus we will overall live in a world where we can have peace of mind that everyone including ourselves are taken care of and will not be left hung to dry if something goes wrong in the economy, where one foul turn can mean the loss of jobs and the loss of lives. A world where our entire ecosystem is of the best quality. And we as humans can really begin to explore what it means to be here, and get to enjoy ourselves here, no longer caught up in a rat race, just trying to survive.
