Today I'm joined by Teddy Pierce, author of Dethrone Davos: Save America, to discuss the shocking waste, fraud, and abuse that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has been uncovering. From reckless spending to blatant money laundering, we're breaking down how our government has been misusing our hard-earned tax dollars—and why this corruption must be stopped. Transparency and accountability aren't just buzzwords; they're essential for restoring actual integrity to our system. Tune in as we expose what's really going on behind the scenes and why this fight matters for all of us.—Buy Teddy's book, Dethrone Davos: https://www.amazon.com/Dethrone-Davos-America-Theodore-Pierce-ebook/dp/B0D5NKGGNC—https://www.thebrandsunday.com/collections/all

A week is certainly a long time in tech. On last week's That Was the Week roundup, Keith Teare and I were asking if Trump's America was a tech oligarchy. This week is all about the so-called “Sputnik Moment” of DeepSeek, a relatively underfunded Chinese AI company which seems to have radically undercut the value of massively financed American AI companies such as OpenAI and Anthropic. As Keith notes, however, while the commodification of AI through a Chinese startup like DeepSeek is probably inevitable, it doesn't actually undermine the value of US startups like OpenAI and Anthropic. The real victims of DeepSeek, Keith warns, are big tech corps like Meta and Alphabet which are struggling to monetize AI. While nobody outside Silicon Valley will be shedding tears over the travails of Meta and Alphabet, I what we really need, I think, is some Sputnik thinking about wealth redistribution in our big tech age. And, as we discuss, that might come from a certain Bill Gates who, this week, called for a “robot tax” to fund universal basic income so that citizens will have some protection from the massive jobs losses caused by the AI revolution. Keith Teare is the founder and CEO of SignalRank Corporation. Previously, he was executive chairman at Accelerated Digital Ventures Ltd., a U.K.-based global investment company focused on startups at all stages.

Kelly Finnell is a leading expert in Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs) with over 40 years of experience. As one of the nation's premier ESOP consultants, Kelly has designed and executed numerous ESOPs and has shared his expertise at more than 300 conferences and meetings globally, including in London and Sydney.In 2010, Kelly authored "The ESOP Coach: Using ESOPs in Ownership Succession Planning," the most comprehensive guide on ESOPs available today. He has also published numerous articles on the subject, further establishing his authority in ownership succession planning.Kelly's firm, Executive Financial Services, established in 1981 and based in Memphis, Tennessee, is dedicated exclusively to ESOPs. With a highly qualified team, they have successfully executed transactions in 38 cities across 19 states, focusing solely on ESOPs.SHOW SUMMARY In this episode of the Disruptive Successor podcast, host Jonathan Goldhill is joined by Kelly Finnell, a leading ESOP consultant, to discuss the intricacies and benefits of Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs) as an effective business succession strategy. Kelly provides insights into how ESOPs function, their tax benefits, the impact on company culture, and the feasibility for various business types. He also addresses common myths and concerns related to ESOPs, offering real-world examples and case studies. This episode aims to provide next-generation leaders and entrepreneurs with valuable information on leveraging ESOPs for successful business transitions while fostering employee ownership.KEY TAKEAWAYSIntroduction to ESOPs: An Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) is a form of retirement plan that invests primarily in the stock of the sponsoring employer, providing both an exit strategy for business owners and benefits to employees.Target Companies: ESOPs are ideal for small to mid-sized companies with stable and predictable revenues, typically with at least $2 million in EBITDA. They are particularly beneficial for professional services firms.Tax Benefits: Significant tax advantages exist for both the selling owner (potential deferral or elimination of capital gains taxes) and the company (operating tax-free if it's an S corporation).Financing ESOPs: The ESOP is fully financed by the company, not by the employees, making it possible for employees to become owners without needing to invest their own money.Ownership Culture: ESOPs promote an ownership culture within the company, aligning employees' interests with the company's success, which can lead to increased productivity and motivation.Succession Planning: ESOPs can be used effectively in family businesses to manage generational transitions, ensuring fair distribution of the estate among family members.Feasibility and Implementation: The process begins with a feasibility study to evaluate the potential outcomes and involves significant communication and education efforts to ensure employee buy-in and understanding.QUOTES"ESOP solves that problem: it is entirely financed by the company. The employees don't come out of pocket with any money. It's a benefit plan for them, not an investment plan.""I always tell business owners that the best candidate for an ESOP is a company where the owner comes in late, takes a long lunch, and leaves early.""You have to have a strong successor management team.""The reason the ESOP outperforms is because with an ESOP, you're getting a leveraged rate of return on the employee's accounts.""If a business owner sells to private equity, the way the government would look at that is you have a rich person selling to other rich people."Connect and learn more about Kelly Finnell.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/esopcoach/If you enjoyed today's episode, please subscribe, review, and share with a friend who would benefit from the message.

Central Banks all around the world can see a huge storm on the horizon, a financial reset. They are losing faith in the dollar and are buying gold at record levels. We have seen crashes before … but there is more at stake this time. Why? Because I believe the Antichrist spirit is over the world, and we are in the last generation before Christ's return. The global elite will use this next financial crash to usher in a socialist utopia. Wealth Redistribution is coming. Revelation tells us that in the last days there will be hyperinflation, and scarcity. Now is the time to prepare by investing in assets that will continue to maintain value when the dollar dies. ********** If you would like to donate, just follow this link: https://www.zachdrewshow.com/donate/ and hit the bright orange “Donate” button!

If you've been following the cryptocurrency and NFT conversation with us recently, you'll appreciate this incredible conversation with Robert Breedlove, a freedom maximalist and bitcoin-focused entrepreneur. If you haven't been following along, jump in now. This episode is less NFT and crypto wallet focused and more educational in that Robert breaks down inflation like very few can. Understanding something at its foundational level allows you to really think from first principles, which empowers you to make better decisions. Cryptocurrency is built on technology and Bitcoin has been performing like no other asset in history, but why and how is this possible? You may need to listen to this a few times, and may be even better with pen and paper to take notes. This is a crash course and deep dive on money, inflation, what property is, and why assets matter. Robert shares 5 properties of money: 1. Divisibility 2. Durability 3. Recognizability 4. Portability 5. Scarcity [Original air date: 10-12-21].

With economic growth no longer producing benefits seen in the past such as raising living standards for the middle class, and human activity having exceeded some planetary boundaries, it's time to embrace degrowth, argues Jennifer Wilkins.Wilkins is a researcher and advocate on sustainability in business with a focus on degrowth. In a new episode of interest.co.nz's Of Interest podcast, she discusses the degrowth movement."Degrowth is normally described or defined as an equitable downscaling of production and consumption. Other people add in other parts of that definition, which is about reorganising the market for a new role in provisioning. So I think about degrowth as being a transition. Starting from the economy that we have now, which is very much about trickle down wealth and extracting from nature, to a future economy which is more about universal wellbeing in an economy within ecology and nature. And degrowth is really the transition from one to the other," Wilkins says."So I don't think about it as being a very rapid change or a very smooth change. I think about it as being a hybrid of emergence and receding ideas, quite a lot of tension and a lot of mutation in the economy. So it's quite a complex thing, degrowth."She traces degrowth's origins to the 1970s, and Romanian mathematician, statistician, economist and author of The Entropy Law, Nicholas Georgescu-Roegen, "the father of ecological economics."The push for net zero greenhouse gas emissions is needed but not enough, Wilkins says. With a degrowth economy requiring more of a collective than individual approach, Wilkins says "the jury's out on the role of capitalism." And does advocating for a reduction in production and consumption mean people would be expected to accept a lower standard of living?"I think degrowth is definitely looking to raise standards of living for the majority of people around the world. I think standards of living are actually decreasing at the moment. I think around the world, middle class lifestyles are decreasing in quality. And so there's this myth, if you like, that raising growth improves wellbeing. But the evidence shows that there's actually a bliss point. Economic growth improves wellbeing up to a certain GDP per capita, and beyond that, it either doesn't make a difference and/or eventually it begins to reduce wellbeing," says Wilkins."The bliss point is actually quite a lot lower than New Zealand's GDP per capita. So we have theoretically enough wealth already. We just need to redistribute it. I think people who are very well off will not see a reduction in their wellbeing or their living standards through a redistribution, but I think people who are less well off will see a great improvement in their wellbeing through a redistribution."Wilkins believes degrowth will become public policy, saying politicians who want to run on a degrowth platform have lots of positive things they can say."It's about redefining what we see as value. I mean, at the moment we think about wealth as value and prosperity, but prosperity is really about things like having more leisure time, having a healthier natural environment around us, having more community health and more community cohesion, having more access to services and assets, and having an increase in our democratic participation. And those are all things that degrowth wishes to grow," Wilkins says."I think it [degrowth] will become public policy. I think parties will run on it as a platform. It's hard to say when that would happen, but I think in the not too distant future. And I think the thing is that growth as an idea is so embedded as a common sense that it never has to explain itself. And so there's a bit of an unfair playing field in terms of degrowth will have to explain itself to become credible. Whereas growth gets a free pass.""Growth is not producing the effects that we have experienced in the past, like the raising the living standards of the middle class. That ship has sailed. We're in a different world now. There isn't room for growth to create those kinds of benefits anymore. We need to create benefits in a different way. So growth will fail to evidence itself as a wellbeing, a process for wellbeing in future. And there'll be a confluence of factors. There'll be, you know, this failure of neoliberalism, which I think we're already experiencing," says Wilkins.There's more from Wilkins in the podcast itself, including what degrowth would mean for individuals, businesses and communities, and what it would mean for agriculture, manufacturing and tourism.*You can find all episodes of the Of Interest podcast here.

Is wealth redistribution the way to bring down inequality? Is Rahul Gandhi's promise unconstitutional? Listen in on what wealth redistribution can translate into and its implications for India's polity and economy.

In episode 479, Daniel Martinez, Anthony Gaona, and Jesse Jiminez delve into a candid and broad-ranging conversation covering topics from personal security and estate planning to wealth redistribution and philanthropy. They emphasize the importance of preparing for the future today, not just in terms of financial planning but also in safeguarding loved ones. Daniel shares his perspective on the responsibility of wealth and the impact it can have on solving global issues, suggesting ambitious solutions like transforming office buildings into housing shelters for the homeless as a form of philanthropy and social change. The discussion also touches on the value of mentorship, personal growth through overcoming pain, and the significance of sharing knowledge and resources to help others succeed. They critique the mainstream perception of land investment, advocating for its potential over more traditional investment strategies, and underscore the importance of being open to learning and asking questions to uncover new opportunities. Estate Planning and Personal Security (0:00 - 1:40): Daniel discusses the importance of planning for the future today, not when it's too late, emphasizing the need for estate planning and setting up trusts to ensure the security of loved ones. Wealth Redistribution and Philanthropy (2:36 - 4:13): The conversation shifts towards using wealth for the protection and security of loved ones and extending that to broader societal issues. Daniel talks about ambitious ideas like buying and converting office buildings into shelters for the homeless as a form of philanthropy and addressing wealth inequality. The Value of Mentorship and Personal Growth Through Pain (5:02 - 6:10): They highlight the role of pain and suffering as driving forces behind entrepreneurial success, and the importance of mentorship in surpassing personal and professional limitations. Critique of Mainstream Investment Strategies and Advocacy for Land Investment (14:48 - 15:07): The discussion critiques traditional investment strategies like commercial real estate, promoting land investment as a more lucrative and underestimated asset class.

Casual investors understand that states approach taxation of its citizens differently and can have different approaches to raising revenue. However, in the last month, there has been a shift in the directionality of state tax policy. Seven states (including NY and CA) released aggressive (and interrelated) proposals to increase taxes. Some of these proposals center around forms of the controversial “wealth tax” – a tax that would raise revenue from unrealized gains. JARED WALCZAK will explore the new proposals, the likelihood of passage and their broader impact.  Jared Walczak is Vice President of State Projects at the Tax Foundation. He is the lead researcher on the annual State Business Tax Climate Index and Location Matters, and has authored or coauthored tax reform guides on Alaska, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Nevada, New  York, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, West Virginia, and Wisconsin. Jared's work is regularly cited in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Politico, AP, and many other prominent national and state outlets. He previously served as legislative director to a member of the Senate of Virginia and as policy director for a statewide campaign, and consulted on research and policy development for a number of candidates and elected officials. He has been recently quoted extensively on this topic in the Wall Street Journal, the New York Post, and MarketWatch. Trying to predict tax legislation can be folly. However, states are known to be the laboratory for broader national tax legislation. These state proposals can provide interesting data points on the mood of legislatures and the directionality of tax policy across the nation. It's important to know about them. Enjoy the conversation with Jared Walczak. Jared's Background  The Tax Landscape Context around Income Taxes Capital Gains Taxes Estate Taxes Wealth Taxes State Taxes vs Federal Taxes "Raising Revenue" vs "Wealth Redistribution" What is new in 2023 that has 7 states looking to raise taxes? Which states are we looking at here? California Connecticut Hawaii Illinois Maryland New York Washington What about the passage of Massachusetts' Millionaire Tax? What is the likelihood of passage? What does this tell us about the "Diverging Directionality" of State Tax Policy? Wealth taxes? We're already used to the concept of taxing unrealized gains with property taxes- Not popular- Haven't these been tried worldwide and often discarded? Administratively difficult?  Invest in valuation firms! Forced liquidations? Lower Business Valuations? Reduced Returns for Shareholders? Fairness?  Do you get a carry forward if there is a loss? Is the Wealth Tax Constitutional?  Is it a Taking? Is this a Business Climate to be Encouraged? Tax increase Directionality What do the tea leaves look like? What political points can be scored in such a divided environment? Any big crystal ball predictions here? How do we keep track of Jared and the Tax Foundation?

The RSB Show 12-4-22 - Alex Newman, COP27 New 10 Commandments, Global wealth redistribution, Climate reparations

Here's this week's letter:I'm writing to ask what you think I should do with a windfall? I completely did not expect to be compensated for some work that I did to help out a friend. It's not a life changing amount of money, but it's enough to go on a nice vacation for example. A little context- my finances are in good shape. I have my emergency savings where I want them. I am maxing out all my retirement accounts. I comfortably pay my living expenses every month with enough to put into savings above and beyond my retirement savings. There's nothing that I really want or need. So I'm asking what should I do with this windfall? I have never been this financially secure before so it is scary to think about just blowing it all on something extravagant or just giving it all away, but I'm just looking to find out if you have any suggestions on how to think about this cash.Support the show

We bring you a brief minisode with a special appearance from Tess to talk about the 2022 Juneteeth Jubilee Wealth Redistribution, this year, with a focus on education. Last year, we collected money from white folks in our congregation to redistribute it to Black folks, as a way to act out our faithful convictions. This year we're doing it again, with an emphasis on how student debt worsens the racial wealth gap. Send money on Venmo to @CMBBLM, and follow us on Instagram @colorcorrectionpodcast to see how the campaign is progressing!

If you have a passport from a Western country, no matter where your assets are, your money is in danger. The governments of the developed world are in debt and need money to balance their budgets and entrepreneurs are the easiest most politically palatable and tolerable target. They're rich enough to be worth the effort, but not influential enough to have lobbyists in the government; nor do they have enough votes to oust the politicians who are raising taxes on the rich in the first place. To the average citizen, anyone who wishes to go where they are treated best and live life on their own terms is selfish because they are not contributing to the system that helped raise them. In this video, Andrew shares news about Canada and explains why it's clear that Trudeau wants Canada to be a "post-national" country.'

After hearing Morgan's story of choosing to donate and redistribute 100% of her inherited family wealth, I knew I wanted to speak with her. In this conversation we discuss what it's like to face the shadows of our ancestral lineages, ask deeper questions of what our family's part was in injustices in our country and how we can use that knowledge to atone and repair. Morgan is one of thousands of young people feeling called to redistribute inherited wealth back into the hands of indigenous and black people and organizations across the country… Her story calls us to consider that maybe true happiness is really found when we focus on others' happiness rather than just our own… In this episode we discuss: Morgan's privileged upbringing and calling to activism early in life The inner journey navigating shame, guilt, and anger after learning about some of her ancestor's involvement in slavery, moving indigenous people off their land, and fossil fuel investments - the very= The story of how Morgan began redistributing 100% of her inherited wealth and 50% of her earned income How to navigate resistance that may come up when redistributing funds How to begin the journey of looking into your own ancestral past The fears Morgan faced around being public with this work What Morgan has learned about true happiness A letter to her descendants and vision for a healed world Stay in Touch with Morgan: Coaching & Cohorts for Ancestral Repair & Redistribution: morganhcurtis.com Have money to give this season? Here are some of Morgan's suggestions on where to begin: Ekvn Yefolecv an intentional Indigenous ecovillage community returning to their ancestral homelands in what's known as Alabama, to reclaim and revive language, ecology, cosmology and tradition. Canticle Farm an urban farm, educational center, and intentional community, located in East Oakland, CA on Lisjan Ohlone territory. In particular, the Sister Water House of Restorative Justice at Canticle Farm is home to formerly-incarcerated Black elders and movement leaders. #Case4Reparations Fund at Liberated Capital is an example of how to cede decision making power by funding the movement for reparations through campaigns and organizations chosen by a group of Black and Indigenous leaders. Stay in Touch with Rising Women Leaders: Website Instagram Patreon   Guided by the call to transmute the legacy of her colonizer and enslaver ancestors, Morgan is dedicated to working with her fellow people with wealth and class privilege towards redistribution, atonement, and repair of ancestral harms. As a facilitator, money coach, organizer and ritualist, she works to catalyze the healing of relationships with self, family, ancestors, community, and the land, enabling the surrender of power and control so that resources can flow towards racial, environmental, and economic justice. She is in the process of redistributing 100% of her inherited wealth and 50% of her income to primarily Black- and Indigenous-led organizing and land projects. Morgan is a resident of Canticle Farm, a multi-racial, inter-faith, cross-class, intergenerational intentional community in Lisjan Ohlone territory (Oakland, CA). She is currently a Masters of Divinity student at Harvard Divinity School, focused on racial justice and healing. You can learn more at her website: morganhcurtis.com.

If you haven't been following along, jump in now. This episode is less NFT and crypto wallet focused and more educational in that Robert breaks down inflation like very few can. Understanding something at its foundational level allows you to really think from first principles, which empowers you to make better decisions. Cryptocurrency is built on technology and Bitcoin has been performing like no other asset in history, but why and how is this possible? You may need to watch this a few times, and may be even better with pen and paper to take notes. This is a crash course and deep dive on money, inflation, what property is, and why assets matter.   Robert shares 5 properties of money:   1. Divisibility 2. Durability 3. Recognizability 4. Portability 5.

It's like literacy or numeracy. It's a software implementation we put into our brain, we use it to communicate, negotiate [and] plan.” [6:42]   “We typically think property is the house, the car, the stock, whatever. That's not what property is, properties and relationships. It's an exclusively acknowledged relationship between the owner and the asset”   “It contradicts the premise of self ownership, when we give power away to a single institution” [10:26]   “I like to say central banking, and the fiat currency complex is as clear as mud and twice as dirty.” [16:48]   “When we look at money, the five properties that market actors voluntarily favor, you could also think of as the five services we seek from money…” [26:16]   “When money is losing its value over time. We're all incentivized to be more short term thinking. This is a de-civilizing force.” [39:07]   “There is no difference between counterfeiting and inflating the amount of dollars in the system.” [40:13]   “Inflation is legalized counterfeiting. Counterfeiting is criminalized inflation.” [43:33]   “We have tried to rationalize and formulate different ways of creating socio economic structures that favored the few that could understand it and create that privilege for themselves at the expense of others.” [56:35]   “Bitcoin is an innovation as significant as the Gutenberg printing press actually, and I think the implications of its emergence will be similarly disruptive to institutions in the world.” [1:10:07]   “When the institution tries to clamp down on the disruptive technology, the subversive technology, it actually drives it to its highest and most useful form of some subversion” [1:12:24]   “Another definition of money. It's an insurance policy on uncertainty. The only reason people are holding money is for its option value.” [1:35:23]   “To walk across the room, implies that you value being on the other side of the room more than you value sitting where you currently are. So we are constantly and unavoidably expressing our values through action.” [1:55:22]   Follow Robert Breedlove: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC43_LTf5Z4lbRjKCq0sIAVg Twitter: https://twitter.com/Breedlove22 LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/breedlove22/ Podcast: https://whatismoneypodcast.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/breedlove_22/

In this Episode of Beneath The Surface I have my first conversational episode with Labor Organizer, Marxist feminist, and Virgo Sun with an Aries Moon, Lexy Reyelts Salas. In this episode Lexy helps us understand the difference between Wealth Distribution and Mutual Aid. We will define terms like capitalism, wealth and what we mean when we say “The Rich”. We also discuss in depth many of the myths that capitalism feeds us to sustain itself. In addition to this we talk about the role that the law has and continues to play in creating generational wealth for specific groups of people and how calls for wealth distribution are different from mutual aid and why that is so.

The guys sit down to discuss the recent wealth transfer from the middle class to the ultra-rich and the policy-making that facilitated this. In Cancelled!, we cancel rights and freedoms and the guys let loose on why you need to have the right to earn a living. Get out the tinfoil, the normies will call you a conspiracy theorist for thinking like this. Much of the data mentioned in this episode can be found here: https://inequality.org/great-divide/updates-billionaire-pandemic/ 

Rutger Bregman's book, Utopia for Realists, maps out how Universal Basic Income was nearly real in the 70's. Coupled with increasing automation (robot uprising) and prospects of joblessness (along with a growing confusion of what is “work” without “labor”) we should also consider the role of humans in a world of plenty.Providing proof for that disarms our culturally conditioned biases, the text allows us to dream about ways to reverse the increasing inequality, pain of industrial age factory mindsets, and reminds us that not only is a utopic dream worth pursuing, but it might be the only way to save ourselves from the systemic psychopathologies of capitalisms.INTRORyder goes on a little rant about Christian values and “Make America Great Again.” His confusion is when Christianity is conflated with the Republican Party, causing a reversal into wealth and away from aiding the less fortunate. Ryder discusses them a values “captured by an apparatus” that puts them to an alternate use, an old historical trick that is 180 degree reversal from America in the 1970's, in which we nearly had Minicome.And of course, the nostalgic right's turn to the 50's and 60's often conveniently forgets to include that the highest wealth taxes were also during that period: less social and economic inequality that creates the utopia comes from minimizing economic inequality.Part 1: 15 hour work weekIn 1930's Henry Ford reduced his employees work hours from 60 to 40 per week. He found them to be happier and more productive, not less.  In 1930, the economist John Maynard Keynes was predicting that we'd all be working just 15-hour weeks by the year 2030. With smart phones, there are studies showing people work an additional 8 to 11 hours a week, 6 or 7 days per week.“Yet nowadays are biggest challenges are not Leisure and boredom, but stress and uncertainty.”Rutger BregmanFirst off, let's talk about Robots and automation: Roughly half, 47% of American Jobs and 54% of European jobs, are at risk of being automated. So, in a society reliant on employment, we have developed technology to unemploy people.it will take a smaller and smaller number of elites to profitably and efficiently run society.David RicardoSo, we educate all these people so they can get jobs, then there are no jobs to get, because we are so smart we have developed technology to displace them. It is more than farming, it is also creative endeavors such as journalism.1- what are we going to do with the 50% of the population that becomes unemployed?This reminds me of the Milton Freidman story, where when touring China they employed people to build dams, not by using tractors (which they had), but by having people manually excavate with shovels.If it's jobs you want to create, then take away their shovels and give them spoons!Milton Freidman2- what does it mean to “work?”What is the meaning of life, the universe and everything? 42Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy, Douglas AdamsWe should de-couple labor from work, and focus on productivity (and cognitive work) now that robots can do labor and “brain-deadening work.”In a survey, ½ of the professionals say their job has no “meaning or significance.” While only 13% of people in 142 countries like their job, but perhaps we don't care about what people “like.” It's work. Life is pain, Highness. Anyone who tells you differently is selling something.”Wesley, Princess BrideHowever, if you care about efficiency and productivity more than happy employees: then what about the 37% of people polled say their job shouldn't even exist. So, we have unhappy people working pointless jobs, or jobs they despise, for what? To survive? or the opposite?  working jobs we hate, so we can buy shit we don't need.Tyler Durden, Fight ClubPart 2All money is a matter of belief.Adam SmithTIME IS MONEY. Well, no, it's not. Time is time/Space, while money is an abstraction that stands in place of promises. Time was money when it was based on factory labor, hand labor, and now on robot labor, but it is the best metric for cognitive, creative human labor. So, realistically, how long can your do “creative labor?”“Research suggests that someone who is constantly drawing on their creative abilities can, on average, be productive for no more than six hours a day.”Bregman is asked, “if we worked less, what would it solve?” He reverses that to ask: “Well, what wouldn't it solve? “Bregman has examples of how it would solve stress, climate change by cutting pollution in half, accidents that lead to death or financial disaster, unemployment through work-sharing, emancipation of women and recalibration of men through paternity leave, an aging population could work again without the 40 hour drudgery, and economic equality since the rich tend to work more since their time is “more expensive.”In the 1800's the wealthy worked less, now they work more as a status symbol_._ Work is entangled with hobby and identity. Even your leisure time is curated as work: Netflix time is now a type of cultural, social work, carefully curated and indulged to enable future conversations.There is a false narrative at play, or as Friederich Engels might say, “false consciousness” that traps the “proletariat.” For Engels, the working class was trapped in religion and nationalism, which kept them from seeing their value. Except now, the people at the top have had their Vision clouded: their consciousness is trapped by all the zeros on your paychecks. You feel you must be producing something of Great Value because you earn so much, right?For instance, let's look at managers, what do they produce?I have people skills! I am good at dealing with people!We need to manage ATTENTION, not hours. If your boss says, “instead of 8 hours a day, if you complete your tasks in 4, and get everything done by Thursday, I will give you Friday off.” That's a 16-hr work week, nearly our 15 hour work week. Would you, instead of socializing and wasting time on slack or email chats, would you knock out the vital tasks through optimal focus, peak attention, and flow state?Flow state is about 500 times more productive than normal state, but at max can only be maintained for about 5 hours. In experiments, an office reduced the work day to 9-3, implemented flow state practices, and saw no decrease in productivity.However, people liked to break the day up a bit more. Darwin spent two 90 min periods in the morning and one hour in the afternoon. Hunter/gatherer research suggests a 3-5 hour work day as well. So, really, this is not revolutionary: we are advocating a return to our biological norm. Forty hour workweeks are a relic of the Industrial Age. Knowledge workers function like athletes — train and sprint, then rest and reassess.”Naval RivikantIt takes leisure, relaxation, and entering certain states to be highly functioning. This optimized self breaks apart the “time = output, or “time=money,” notion of continually staying busy.Can't flow? how about the Pomodoro technique? The short breaks help you concentrate better and fight cognitive boredom, which also reduces errors and mistakes. It has been proven to cut a 40 hour work load into about 16 hours.The answer is not more hours, it's less bullshit.”Jason FriedHowever, this kind of self-optimization towards productivity is a red-herring, a misplaced focus: arguments can be made that we have enough global resources and productivity to take care of everyone… and that the need to self-optimize just internalizes the factory practices of Taylorism. We have become the factory, going to work within ourselves, become the mental equivalent of Charlie Chaplin riveting faster and faster, lest the machine overtake us. If we extend Naval's knowledge worker as athlete metaphor: only a few elite athletes ever make it to pro status. Most of us will not be knowledge workers in the upcoming utopia. We will not be the Lebron James or Stephen Hawkings, we will be something else.   Value ends above means, and prefer the good to the useful.”John Maynard KeynesPart 3: Be realistic, demand the impossible!This is not really about the 15 hour work week. It is about the illusion of scarcity we live under and have internalized, it is about the imbalances capitalism in our democracy has amplified, generating social inequities that demand revolution.  Throughout Bregman's book he takes the Keynesian notion of wealth redistribution, mostly by taxation on financial transactions (like wall street speculation) and enforcing a progressive tax on the wealthy. These would be used to eradicate poverty, provide the stability of UBI, and open up our borders.  We have to save capitalism from the capitalists.Thomas PikettyFor an example, last podcast I mentioned Apple and Tax havens sheltering something like $15 billion, and overall not paying something like $26 Billion. This week, ProPublica scrutinized IRS data and tax returns, focusing on the 25 richest people. In 2018 they were worth $1.1 trillion.How many average wage earners does it take to match that $1 Trillion? 14.3 Million ordinary American workers.How much did the top 25 pay on their $1 Trillion in wealth? $1.9 billion. Or .2 %How much did those 14.3 Million workers pay on their $1 trillion? $143 billion. Or 14.3%The rich use their wealth to shelter their wealth… legally. Our government set this up for them, and continues to allow it. These 25 people, or almost anyone in the 1%, should pay 37%. Which, by the way, is $370 billion: enough to eradicate poverty twice over at Bregman's $175 Billion estimate.Taxes are a kind of collective sacrifice. No one loves giving their hard-earned money to the government. But the system works only as long as it's perceived to be fair.”ProbulicaOur state, enmeshed with capitalist values, seems more and more distant, closer and closer to collapse through injustice, inequity, and value vs. fact confusion. The wealthy tend to “pass on the costs to the consumer” or get bailed out (2008 recession) or can opt-out of pain in luxury (COVID Pandemic).People are now concerned with no one wanting to work, because the unemployment checks are “too big.” Have we just sustained an artificial market on wage oppression and enabled over-saturated markets for so long we think it is normal for people with a full time job to live in poverty? Even Henry Ford paid his employees more and gave them more leisure time, because how else were they going to buy and enjoy his cars? Paying people more also equals more spending, despite some costs rising, but perhaps what really bothers us is when we have to look up from our cheap goods and realize there is a person suffering on the other end. Our commodities and services are linked to people, money is just the abstraction that gets between us, that blinds us. Politics is the art of the possible.”Otto Von Bismark To go from ideal to real is the path of politics, but Bregman clarifies, and this goes back to the intro, we need a politics not of RULES, but of REVOLUTION.Not about the art of the possible, but about making the impossible inevitable.Rutger BregmanIt is not about reaffirming the status quo, but making todays unrealistic ideas tomorrow's taken for granted and causally assumed rights. For example: Privacy is a fairly new idea, maybe 150 years old, and yet, we now think of it as an inalienable right. Let's do the same with human welfare and thriving. Let's make taking care of people tomorrow's basic common sense.

We walk through the dreamland of Cockaigne, and our small utopic dreams. Bregman reminds us democracy was once a dream, and slavery was once unthinkably common. We nearly had UBI in the 70's, because all the data proves it works, but morality, economics, and conservatism have re-written our notions of what is possible or responsible in ways that only exacerbate wealth inequality. Bregman walks through programs on Minicome, the Cherokee nation, Amsterdam and Rotterdam, and the failures of large institutions and charities in attempting grand plans that fail. The proof is there: the only thing that makes poor people poor is a lack of cash. The easiest, most effective way to solve the problem is a direct influx of cash. Not expensive, misguided projects, celebrity endorsements, or more counseling. On a broader note, the US ranks highest in GDP, but is also highest in social ills. The Netherlands, by contrast, have equally high per capita income, without the social ills. Similar to other, poorer countries, like Portugal, the US has vastly unequal wealth concentration, which tends to lead to social disruption through violence and rebellion as a means of redistribution. But, at the top it is also problematic: the international monetary fund states that wealth inequality increases depression, paranoia, and unhappiness in the rich.
