The question asked for a number (e.g. 1 or 42 or 10,000), not a rant
Please try to answer with a number
Thank you
I believe in God and in figures too.
I need not less than $10 billions to realize the global project of totally symmetrical job weeks – free weeks life style in so called high developed democratic countries (GDP more than $15000) for 10 years.
It is about 1.5 billions people.
Hey NC, do YOU live by these principles now?
I live by these principles from 1980.
In the age of 30 I was the manager of mechanical engineers design group in USSR.
We were in hard conditions, because we had no enough money to pay to the people.
According my proposal 50% of my group – 6 engineers began to work 12 hours a day with out weekends and for a month we have finished our project with excellent quality.
I couldn’t pay to my people for overtime, but could give them all there overtime job hours as vacation days.
So after a month hard and creative work my 6 engineers and I had got a month of vacation.
After vacation we decided to work in the same style.
The result was that the factories got our 3 months’ projects in the end of the first month for implementation, and the quality of projects was excellent.
We worked in these month hard creative work – month vacation system for about a year and than it was closed for because too good results and because more and more people demanded to give them to work in this symmetrical system.
After new lifestyle nobody could work in old ordinary lifestyle style, and most of us have lay off our job place.
From this time I work a year and a year I live on my money.
I don’t get welfare principally.
I have lived this style in USSR, in Israel and for year in USA
What good would be this scenario without robots?
As very good quality experienced engineer I tell you with full responsibility that even in technology level of 1980th it was really possible to realize my idea globally with out any robots.
In the end of 19th century workers even in Russia had 8th hours job day.
One working man gave possibility to live all his five – six family members according those time standards.
And today in man and woman both working families with 1 – 2 children it is very difficult to achieve modern life standards.
As social designer I know what is wrong and I give my new absolutely workable design project of high-developed countries unit.
