The Value of Human Energy

The Value of Human Energy 

A man is jumping in the air with his fist in the air.

Why is the value of Human Energy (mental and physical) left up to subjective economic measures?


A price can be put on anything, and values fluctuate constantly and subjectively. Why is the value of Human Energy (mental and physical), on which all economies depend, not fixed to things of real and constant necessity to us all? The price for Human Energy fluctuates; country to country, person to person. This has been the norm for thousands of years. And this norm has been the source of most of the hardships Humans suffered in the past and suffer presently.


Starting with slavery and continuing to our modern "minimum wage", Humanity has been conned by Subjective Economic Valuation, (the Worldwide economic belief system, with more believers than most popular religions.) Dignified Human survival and preservation of the natural living world and resources are not protected, they are brokered. The cruel hoax of "survival of the fittest" has been used to brainwash society since Darwin. (He did not intend this emphasis in his works. He observed, "survival through cooperation".) Our modern meme is, "those who don't make it economically, don't deserve to live." Today we are beginning to understand that evolution is much more complex than "survival of the fittest" and that it begins at a cellular/chemical level. And we understand the most important part of being alive is not, "making a living" within our World Economics.


By not equating Human Energy efforts (physical and mental) within society to the realities of survival; food, shelter, education and healthcare, our World Economic System is literally throwing us to the lions. To quote Richard Nixon, "We don't need a minimum wage, we need a living wage." And, we assert that a real "living wage" should be guaranteed basic human needs, from birth to death, made possible with Energy Currency.

Human Energy and Natural Energy are essential forces and resources that need to be protected and not sold to the highest or lowest bidder. These are building blocks from which everything else is extrapolated, and this includes economics. By not linking the value of Human Energy to the realities that guarantee dignified survival, we are told our lives are not valuable. Your value can be estimated any which way. For example, what if a crazy person asks, "How much will you pay me - to not shoot you?" Or, "How little are you willing to work for, in order to get or keep this job?" Both these questions put your life on the line. And what lack of compassion and life understanding made these questions possible


Is pitting person against person, state against state, country against country and religion against religion sustainable economics? Doesn't this create economic and social inequality and in turn cause negative and destructive societal tendencies? If a person is starving they might steal or sell illegal and protected items for money. If people have to leave their country (for various reasons like war, terrorism, scarcity and racism, all symptoms that are traceable to present economic practices), they may immigrate from their home countries and inadvertently create tensions where they go


Every person must have, from birth to death, the essential survival needs, food, shelter, education and healthcare, as a birthright. Without the healthy, educated participation of people Worldwide our World Economic System is destroying Humanity and Earth's Natural resources through opportunistic pricing


Can the fluctuating price on our heads be removed? Yes. A parallel currency that we call Energy Currency can secure Human Energy value to Human survival needs. This currency compliments, does not eliminate, existing for profit currencies. They will continue to serve society in important ways in the World market. But, once Energy Currency reaches a bank it will be destroyed, creating no inflation and no investment opportunity, and having provided all the basic needs for humanity, food, shelter, education and healthcare, bidding all people, Worldwide, to 'fare well'


You can be part of this change by simply talking with your friends and acquaintances about the possibility of Energy Currency and what it would mean for us all.

The right to not starve, the right to have shelter, the right to be treated for curable illness, the right to not be ignorant. Humanity, over many years of civilization, has created solutions for all these and can provide them, Worldwide. Freedom of speech and freedom of religion (which is essentially freedom of speech) are not enough. To make the “pursuit of happiness” a real possibility a person must have the other four human rights, food, shelter, healthcare and education. It does not take a “rocket scientist” to figure out how to pay for and distribute these rights. We can use our representation for value, money, any way we wish. The way money flows now is the classic pattern that we all are born into and must use. Basically it is capitalism. The market is moved by profit. Only peripherally does preservation of humanity or limited natural resources come into view. Normally there has to be an emergency for this to happen; a war, weather disasters or a pandemic. When the workforce is reduced or resources made scarce. This is not a sustainable situation. It can last for a long time, as it has, but it is always in the slow process of destroying itself. Like the nightmare cliff dropping away behind you as you run. We have the solution in our hands: a Parallel Currency. It will not make everyone honest, kind or generous. But it will keep people from starvation, illness, ignorance and homelessness. Humanity will no longer be enslaved by the more destructive side effects of capitalism. A Parallel Currency is used just for the four basic needs. It is available to everyone from birth until death. When the Parallel Currency arrives at banks it is destroyed so it cannot behave like regular currency and be invested or saved; which can cause inflation. Parallel Currency is only used to provide education, food, shelter and medical care, it is a closed loop. Other currencies will continue to function as usual. Individuals can make as much money as they wish for whatever they wish. The difference is that they will not be depriving other people of their ability to survive. We have the communication, organizing and distribution tool already; the Internet. Locating, assembling, and distributing all the parts necessary for this objective is possible with our information technology. With the development of AI organizIng the Parallel Currency is even more easily done. We will start by paying for these rights but as time passes it will become obvious that this is advantageous to everyone and to our planet's health and like freedom of speech, we won't have to pay for it anymore, with money or blood.

“It is soulless, exploitive, inequitable, unstable and destructive, yet also all- conquering and overwhelming.” Capitalism and its Critics: A History from the Industrial Revolution to AI By John Cassidy This is one of the best descriptions of Capitalism I have read recently. The only thing it leaves out is that Capitalism regularly destroys itself and has to be rescued with huge infusions of human labor (money). But Capitalism is so appealing to humans that it is allowed to continually transform and conform to new demands and circumstances, even though it is inherently unstable and destructive. Like the charming self destructive uncle who is so entertaining with his stories and wild money making schemes, no one wants him to stop. It is so much fun! For a few people. And all it takes is a few people to keep Capitalism going, approximately ten percent of the World population, the richest ten percent. That Capitalism has lasted and spread is testimony to its ability to keep adapting and improving on its main strengths: soullessness and exploitation. As a species we have become, over approximately 500 years, completely adapted to Capitalism. No matter what it distorts, destroys or lays waste to, it has captured our imaginations like a religion. We won't be saying goodbye to it anytime soon. But there is an antidote. We can make up for some of its most destructive symptoms with a Parallel Currency that is used only for basic human needs, food, shelter, education and healthcare, Worldwide. Some countries are already trying to do this with their tax structures and laws but a Parallel Currency would do this without taxation or inflation. It is a separate currency that can only be used to provide basic needs and is destroyed when it reaches a bank; it will not create inflation. It also will not inhibit the positive capabilities of existing currencies. They will continue to function as they usually do. The Parallel Currency is a closed loop created for the dignified survival of humanity. Freedom of speech, freedom of religion are not enough. A government by the people and for the people must also guarantee freedom from starvation, ignorance and curable illness, all things as a human species, over thousands of years, we have developed remedies.
