To fund this, tax rates will have to be high. The government will not only have to subsidize most people’s lives and work; it will also have to compensate for the loss of individual tax revenue previously collected from employed individuals.
If financial capital will be drawn to the hands of the few, what is to prevent them from:
- Opposing re-ordering the system
- Evading the system (loopholes or running away - which is already what many do today already)
The assumption seems to be that the powerful will need to realise that they have a social obligation – which is a mighty tenuous one.

In all cases, people will be able to choose to work fewer hours than they do now.
What is different from what Keynes predicated? The addition of productivity from the second half of the 20th century didn’t decrease working hours – they appear to have driven more value into the hands of shareholders instead of works (especially post 70s). stagnating incomes.

The volunteer service jobs of today, in other words, may turn into the real jobs of the future.
What reordering of the economy need to happen for such jobs to have economic value?

What I am saying is that the lesson we’ve learned in South Africa, in a wider context apart from nuclear weapons, is that only through negotiation, only if enemies or opponents talk to each other, can peace be achieved, can a new dispensation be agreed upon. If you don’t talk, you get thrown deeper and deeper into more conflict.
The assumption is that NK has peace as the ultimate objective. I don’t think that is the case. I think NK prioritises KJU’s survival and well being above all.
