A Peoplenomics Subscriber Note

I was very pleased – satisfied even – to see the headline on the Wall St. Journal site today:

The Era of Cheap Stuff Was Already Ending. Now Comes the Tariff Threat.  – WSJ

This is precisely the problem outlined in the book The-100 Year Toaster which was serialized on Peoplenomics.  If you are a recent subscriber, this series of book chapters was serialized with major early-chapter concepts found in:

While we applaud Trump’s endorsement conceptually, there is a terrible reality on the far side of durability.

Simply put:  When the high-consumption model fails, what will humans do in order to be “value-adders?”  Somewhere in the archives (2007, I think it was) “Dr. Ron’s Leisure Class” appeared.  It was a Utopian possibility. In fact, still is…

Opponents of America, however, are working a high-level plan.  They seem intent on “burning it all down” which – naturally – will give every able human something to do. It will be required and as the WEF’ers admit, you’ll be happy with it.  Because in their power and financial domains, it’s from that that value springs.  Give the leach class something new to steal.

There is, however, another Way.  An alternative solution.

We can raise of planet of monk-like followers of Mind.  Continuing on the path of petulant children – burning down the Future to return to a knuckle-dragging past – a strategy that has almost no probability of getting us to the stars.  A breakthrough thought? Partnering with A.I. while keeping it firewalled from the levers of power and control?  Mighty damn appealing path forward, is it not?

In my latest book (a 6-hour intensive multi-AI jaunt (Playbook: The War We Didn’t Win), I sketch out from of the pieces and fit them into a tentative “design pattern” revealing a possible nexus of the so-called Deep State around financially rich remnants of the failed Third Reich which history is coming to slowly admit reconstituted offshore.

The problem then may be repositioned as follows:

  • Will Humans ‘burning it all down’ such that, after being “harvested financially” yet again, go back for another round of indenture?
  • OR will the alternate track arise: An awareness that the greatest breakthrough in World War II was not nuclear weapons? A way of thinking – Domain Thinking – is far more the powertool of those who would reframe Reality.

Sadly, President Trump has not articulated the natural consequence of strict adherence to quality. Because as long as the (remnant) Deep State survives, the less likely a brighter future becomes.

In my book (100-Year Toaster) I used the example of Checker Motors.  They made a reliable “1-million mile passenger car.”

I will put PLAYBOOK up in the Peoplenomics library next week. Another extended thank you for that $40/year subscription to another way of considering Life.  The download today will be deactivated though it may migrate to Kindle this week. Not to make money but to ensure persistence.

Write when you get rich, but please remember:  the Frontier is between your ears.  We all need to be asking “Are you in charge of this Domain?”

Time grows short.
