A macroeconomic dive: when labor vanishes, consumer demand collapses—undermining corporate revenue and the very tax base UBI relies upon.
4. Minimum Viable Reorganization
The foundational policy, economic, and governance shifts needed to prevent societal collapse under mass job loss—and to secure a stable baseline for all.

A new form of income—earned by existence and shared ancestry—where everyone co-owns the public AI systems that generate planetary wealth.

Why GDP-based taxes collapse in a post-labor world—and alternative models like energy levies, AI licensing, and commons-fund fees that could hold steady.

Imagining a future where essentials—housing, food, health, education—are delivered as publicly governed infrastructure, free at the point of use.
8. Lifeways Not Jobs
What replaces employment as our source of meaning? From caregiving to Earth stewardship, life becomes a chosen role of purpose, not pay.
9. Governing Intelligence at Scale
Who steers the planetary AI systems managing our climate, health, and logistics? Open governance, plural ethics, and AI as a public utility.
