I’ve been thinking deeply about Jeff Booth (nprofile…ly90) ‘s Price of Tomorrow and David Shapiro’s Post-Labor Economics.
Booth tackles monetary distortion — a system built on manipulated inflation. Shapiro confronts the collapse of labor in an AI-powered world.
One calls for money we can trust. The other calls for a new social contract when jobs aren’t the path to dignity.
They both see a future of abundance — but only if we stop inflating a system that can’t handle abundance.
Imagine: a decentralized economy where wealth flows from code, not toil — and systems evolve to serve people, not preserve debt.
This isn’t left vs. right. It’s old system vs. emerging reality.
