I Robot

We must DECIDE WHAT KIND OF society we will be or someone else will do it for us.

A robot is "a machine capable of carrying out a complex series of actions automatically, especially one programmable...(especially in science fiction) a machine resembling a human being and able to replicate certain human movements and functions automatically." synonyms:

automaton, android, golem; More used to refer to a person who behaves in a mechanical or unemotional manner."

"from Czech, from robota ‘forced labor.’"

Are we becoming robots by removing the elements of compassion and love from our daily choices?

Robotic Effects

The question was asked by the Brookings institute, "How will robotics affect society?"

Provided ID could not be validated.

Here the Brookings Institute gathered sharp, successful individuals who suggested that in the future over ¼ of males will be unemployed and a 1/3 of jobs will be in health care.

Even though they seem to be capitalists they also seem to think that socialism is a good thing.

Can Capitalism and Socialism actually be compatible?

At one point it is suggested that the passing of Social Security created a more robust society keeping people out of card board boxes. There are still people living in cardboard boxes and there were not all that many people starving in the ditch or living in cardboard boxes before Social Security.

Actually this is fantasy. Before Social Security and the Great Depression, the care of the poor including the elderly was a responsibility assumed primarily by the the family or the extended family. But when families were unable to help there were friends and neighbors. Beyond that there were also Churches and even organized private charity.

All levels of government together amounted to less than $200 million while private philanthropy was estimated to exceed a billion dollars^[1] not counting the family and friends which were the first line of defense in issues regarding social welfare. This gave an obvious incentive for individuals to cultivate and mend breaches both in families and friendships. Social Virtues were naturally required for anyone and everyone that had hope of relief in time of need.

The payroll tax has substantially increased. Even investment in a 1-year United States Treasury securities would have returned more than Social Security payments and if you had invested the same amount in 6-month CDs at actual market rates the return would even have been greater. All this would have given more incentive to savings, and if you died before collecting them the funds would have reverted to the family through inheritance.

"Experts across a wide spectrum of political opinion now concede that Social Security's retirement program provides a poor return for a lifetime of tax payments..." The Heritage Foundation

"What if the payroll taxes were invested in domestic stocks, the S&P 500 at the actual market return over the 46-year period? The earner would have accumulated $695,303, from which he could draw a monthly income of $2,897. This is two and a half times the Social Security monthly income." [http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2011/03/the_social_security_trap.html The Social Security Trap

By Fred N. Sauer]

Ultimately the net line of defense for society besides providing for yourself, which not everyone would do successfully, is the family and then friends. There has always been a natural incentive built into society to see to the prosperity of our family and friends and our community as a whole. The extended family and immediate community members would be worth investing into again if we would just return to those natural bands that have held societies together for millenniums.

A question arose during the conference "Are there Ways to encourage voluntarism?"

The truth is that Social Security, which is Socialism, by its very nature discourages voluntarism which had been predominant in Pre-Social Security America. Socialism dissolves the natural bands which connect us as a society.

GBI VS GBC

Instead of seeing that Socialism strangles voluntarism and incentive the speakers are suggesting to go from bad to worse, to ramp up the socialist state.

They advocate a Guaranteed Basic Income for individuals saying this gives the people individual bargaining power. What it does is empowers the collective to coerce what should have been charity in society.

Guaranteed Basic Income vs Guaranteed Basic Coercion of our neighbor

In college and in the world these people were convinced that socialism is good because the end justifies the means but what is the end of years of socialism.

Socialism is a noun defined as a "political and economic theory of social organization that advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole."

Its synonyms are listed as: leftism, welfarism; radicalism, progressivism, social democracy; communism, Marxism, etc..

The question begs to be asked if you do not trust people to voluntarily help one another with charity and love, honor and compassion then why do you trust the idea of giving control of the "means of production, distribution, and exchange" into the hands of rulers and bureaucracies?

What is in place to regulate the rulers and bureaucrats?

Socialism as a "political and economic" system requires that the people give power to the state to take away from those who have to give to those who think they do not have enough. It is rooted in coveting your neighbor's goods and possessions for your personal benefit. The men who exercise force to redistribute the wealth of that "political and economic" system call themselves Benefactors.

Benjamin Franklin warned emphatically that “When the people find they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic.” He understood that a “Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote!”

The bonds of society are the benefits of society because we are drawn to that which works for us. Man would by nature be a selfish animal but the generation factor awakens compassion which is one of the few noble qualities of the character of mankind.

We often learn to love one another in the reproduction of the next generation. We learn to sacrifice for our children which develops Social Virtues. The bonds of friendship also come from our sacrifice for one another and naturally those bonds will be extended to the next generation.

The "Rewards" of society cannot come from a bureaucracies of coercion for they are void of charity and love. They do not foster compassion in the individual but rather greed and avarice. It is noble to think that people with a guaranteed income will choose to use their time to promote the greater good but that is naive and history does not verify such a theory of wishful thinking.

The deer does not run fast because he practices in his spare time. He runs to survive the predators of nature. Take away the predator and the natural incentive dissipates along with the deer's abilities.

Socialism voids the natural motivation of society. So the answer to the questions " Are there Ways to encourage voluntarism?" is found in nature.

Milton Friedman - Donahue interview clip 2:30 minutes see Roots of the Welfare State.

The reward of society must come from the market place and Charity, not the coercive state.

Charity can only come from the heart through sacrifice in hope of reciprocation in time of need. Without the regular practice of voluntary charity there shall be no free society.

The charitable conduct of America was part of the essential character of America that was a critical element in its success and achievements.

They spoke of the lack of profit in things like poetry which they imagine would increase with a guaranteed income. Quite the opposite would likely occur. Struggle gives the poet something to write about. It gives him the compassion and passion necessary for his craft.

Look at YouTube or Wikipedia or the phenomena of Open Source technologies. People share without profit motivation. How many people have made videos and put them on YouTube that shows how to repair or make something with nothing but the desire to share.

They also talked about the fact that a Barista at Starbucks- auto manufacturer employee.

But to unnaturally impose by government force a uniform wage to all endeavors, stabs at the heart of incentive and individual initiative.

Giving unwisely and weakens the poor. "Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fullness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy." Ezekiel 16:49 ~5:57 min

To just give money without strings may work in Liberia where the struggle to survive has been with the people since birth but the same concept does not necessarily work well in Venice Beach

To reward individual initiative INDIVIDUALLY means the power of choice must remain in the hands of the individuals of society and not in the hands of professional bureaucrats.

Coercion vs choice

A free society must have the patience of allowing the individual to choose and fall and rise again. You cannot remove the consequences of choice. If society tries it may only delay the inevitable repercussions of sloth and avarice. the use of coercion rather than charity and voluntarism will ultimately create a beast in and of society that will devour the people where it once only nibbled.

Socialism by its nature requires that you are willing to take a bite out of one another. In the coercive society you do not get to decide nor do you have to decide who and how much to help. In such societies the Social Virtues sufferers and the Hue and cry of society are heard no more.

There will be exceptions but virtue should not be the exception in society. It must be the rule. Each individual must be ruled by the righteous virtues of society. The practice of charity is an investment in society which makes us a part of that society in intimate ways that no social scheme of coerced contributions can do.

One spokesman said they did not like the drive up window where you ordered over a mike but preferred a touchscreen which would be more efficient. But the touch screen is void of the human element. That individual taking you order is a real person with a real life and for a brief moment you are connected in in enterprise of desire and fulfillment. Your relationship for those few minutes may be reduced to mere purchase but that is your choice. the way you interact may leave them with a smile or not.

This is within in your power.

An entrepreneur is "a person who organizes and operates a business or businesses, taking on greater than normal financial risks in order to do so." (from French, from entreprendre ‘undertake’. (see enterprise)).

The word enterprise means "a project or undertaking, typically one that is difficult or requires effort. a business or company."

A free society is a company of individuals who not only want the right to choose, liberty, but desire to grant the right to choose to all members of society. Here is an original idea. Why do we not "Let the people individually DECIDE WHAT KIND OF SOCIETY they want?"

Within the nation all those who want a socialist system may sign up for it and pay into it but all those who want to be free to decide individually will gather in Free Assemblies.

With the power to decide comes the responsibility to decide, but the more you invest in your society the more you invest in the hope of freedom.
