Hmmm. I love your willingness to think and envision in big ways. Super interesting, and look forward to exploring this topic more with you. I'm so curious how you'll respond to @pfunk's comment.
We also live in a society where it seems as though people are conditioned to believe their life is built on heavy sacrifice and hard work, although I think this is more common with older generations. Yet younger generations are pouring their energy into things of self-interest and material/superficial goals, largely due to the corporatization of daily life and the lack of any deeper meaning in life (which erodes our sense of interconnectedness).
I feel like any social system that teaches people that it is productive and purposeful to spend their lives creating beautiful things or tending to themselves or their community (like planting a garden) will be a huge shift in how the masses understand reality. Yet I'd love to see a society where this shift occurs. And I think sharing, gift economies, and other community-based currency could really thrive and enrich lives.
