    Who does the actual creation of the goods, the workers, or the payers?
    It's like the chicken and the egg, except solvable.

    As long as the workers do the work we can just take what we need from the pile, in return for an obligation to contribute to the pile.

    With the blockchain one's consumption could be tracked and quantified indelibly.
    Consume less, owe less work to the pile.

    Unless something like this is adopted the robots won't be brought online until after they eliminate the starving masses that unemployed workers create.
    Starving masses burn down gated communities, ergo, the soft kill weapons, because crapitalism,...yo.

    We could declare next Tuesday freedom day.
    On freedom day, and subsequently, you do what you did today, ergo, if you worked, go to work, if you looked for work, look again.
    In this way the demand that will skyrocket in some goods has a chance at catching up.
    The norm will be 20 to 50 we work to restock what we consume, before we do what kids do, and after we do what we want.

    Kropotkin worked all this out from the paris commune data.
