There is no doubt we are living in a state of slavery. My view is we are starting to see technology emerge as an ally to humanity in an effort to free ourselves.
Altering the monetary system is a huge step in the right direction. The advent of blockchain and cryptocurrency enabled the creation of money to shift from the hands of the few to the many. I believe this is of paramount importance.
At the same time, it also create a paradigm shift in how and who receives incentives for certain behaviors. The possibility now exists to pay people directly for their attention. Get paid to ____________ is the new model. Most industries are going to have to embrace this.
There is another technology that I see which is going to remove the chains on individuals.
Presently, we are told what we can and cannot have. Laws are made that forbids people for acquiring certain products. Whether it is a government entity deeming it unsafe, a political move, or simply a large corporation wants something put on the shelf, individuals are on the receiving end of this filtration.
We see this exemplified right now with the tariff situation. One country decides that its people will have to pay more for a particular item because it concluded that it has to "punish" another country. This is determined at the highest government levels and the people are forced to simply accept it.
As we watched the sanction situation in Venezuela unfold, we noticed that the impact of that move might be less due to the emergence of cryptocurrency. This situation was repeated when Iranians found themselves in the same spot. The Iranian people were able to transfer billions of dollars of wealth out in the form of Bitcoin. This saved their holding from diminishing as the Rial dropped like a rock.
Soon, we are going to see products affected in the same way. People are going to be able to control what they have outside of government decisions.
The technology that is going to provide that: 3D printing.
Few take the time to make the connection between this technology and sovereignty but it certain exists. Essentially people will be able to create whatever they desire and the government will be powerless to stop it. As long as one can get the basic materials, an object will be created.
This has huge implications on society. Of course, the message from the media will be how bad this is for all of us. It will allow terrorist to get guns. People will create stuff that will poison the water. Drugs will be made and distributed that harm people.
Do you know who does all these things directly or approves entities to do it: the government. Perhaps it is time to define who the enemy of the people really is.
Leaving that aside, most of us are aware that criminals tend to already be able to get what they need. The dark web is a mega-store for the unsavory characters. Ultimately, it is the law abiding citizens that are penalized.
3D printing is going to shift the power of manufacturing from state oversight and corporate control back to the individual. It is another technology that is going to free people from having to deal with the establishment. It also will put a hole in the system they presently operate under.
As people get these devices in their homes, they will make things for basically the cost of raw materials. This will greatly enhance the pocketbook of the average person. Also, since a printer works off a digital file, one only need to download that file and print it out. Since a great deal of these will most likely be open source, the government cannot stop it.
Many believe that the government can control this process by restricting access to the materials. The challenge with this is that how can it restrict plastic? There is no way to tell if one is making a gun or a coffee cup.
This technology is also an attack on the major corporations. We are going to see our patent laws seriously tested. Corporations make a lot of money by monopolizing a particular design or idea, charging huge sums for usage. With 3D printing, people are going to be able to print out whatever they want. Just like the record companies tried to sue their customers with the file sharing of music, many will resort to this method. The sad truth for them is it will be just as ineffective. In the end, they will end up putting their scans up for people to buy at an inexpensive price.
As this technology develops, the applications are almost endless. We are seeing more of our world digitized and, those parts that are not, will be created from a digital file (often a scan). A lot of this will be tied into blockchain which we already know is revolutionizing the monetary/financial system. Wrestling control in this area from the banksters and governments is crucial. The next step is to start taking back our physical realm.
3D printing is part of the next step. We are going to experience a great deal more freedom when we do not have anyone telling us what we can and cannot have. Free people do not live with someone(thing) telling them this.
