Our dream: A better world
Deutsch Español
Things cannot go on like this. This spiral of growth!
Production – wages – consumption,
just to generate profits. Because people are becoming more sensible and consuming less, weapons are now even being produced, which the state buys on credit.
International construction companies are already looking forward to rebuilding Gaza and they will earn good money.
No ray of hope on the horizon.
Or is there?
There is another way.
This other world begins when we have carried our shopping home. Then it’s time to cook, clean, care, teach, repair, help, play, comfort and much more.
I’ve been doing this for almost 20 years and I don’t mind it at all. The gratitude I receive from my family is much better than any wage.
When I’m done cleaning, I sit down and read a little.
That’s not possible in the economy. There, you would have to clean a second time to create work. The economy also ensures that things break as quickly as possible.
I would never dream of making weapons and selling them so that someone could shoot up my neighbour’s house, just so it could be rebuilt.
So what is the difference?
In one world, there is pay and surplus production; in the other world, there is no pay, but there is care for one another and gratitude.
Otherwise, there is no difference, because people work in both worlds.
We cannot change capitalism, nor can we stop it. If it were possible, it would have been done long ago.
But we can reject capitalism by refusing to play along.
By working for gratitude instead of wages, as in social reproduction. Simultaneously, worldwide.
And the next day, when all goods cost nothing, the transformation of capitalism will begin all by itself.
I invite you to enter the world of BENHARMONIA.
Hello and welcome to Benharmonia!
The world has finally decided that from today on we will give each other our work. Money is therefore no longer necessary and because there are no more profits, the economy only produces what we really need to live happily and contentedly.
It was quite simple. Since money only enters the economy via wages, we decided to forego our wages and salaries starting today. This is really only symbolic, because we wouldn’t have received our wages for several days anyway.
Because all raw materials and energy are gifts from the earth and the sun, goods no longer have any financial value as of today, and we can simply take what we need.
Don’t be surprised, because nothing has changed at all. The mobile phone is still there, the streets are still full of cars and tomorrow morning we will go back to work, college or school.
But in the next few days, weeks and months there will be huge changes. The first thing we will notice is that we don’t have to pay for our daily shopping in the shops.
When we come out of the shops, we will behave exactly the same way as we would if we received gifts, such as for a birthday or for Christmas. We will be very happy.
Social well-being will skyrocket as a result. Even more so than in our ‘dreamland’ Bhutan.
That’s it, really. Nothing more will happen for the time being.
Oh, and don’t be surprised if there’s no more advertising and no more discount offers. If you’re on the internet, you won’t need an ad blocker.
This is simply because no one is interested in giving away more than necessary.
You will see, only now can you recognise what you really need to be happy. Don’t forget your free time!
So that not too much has to be given away, the products will also last longer again. You will never have to worry about the printer or coffee machine breaking down just after the warranty because in the future, the economy will be there exclusively for us and not for the profit of entrepreneurs and banks.
If less is produced, then of course there will be much less waste and exhaust gases. We will probably have achieved the long-term climate goals in a few days. And since fewer raw materials are needed, the deforestation of the rainforests will come to an end. And of course the wars will come to a very quick end because the scarcity of raw materials will have come to an end and no more money will be made from the sale of weapons.
You probably have a lot of questions now.Read More
