You painted a picture that sounded like if we could just redistribute all the wealth that everyone would live like people making $500k/yr. Except that's 50x the total economic productivity of the entire planet.
>What payout/reward system are you referencing?
When people want some of what you produce, they pay you for it.
>Society, in the best case scenario, elects the government - puts people in a position to make the right decisions for them.
Society sometimes elects Trump. And Trump is an angel compared to history's worst case scenarios. So be careful about what "right decisions" you want Trump making for you.
>this in part is why I feel it will be private organizations that don't have a 4-year elected cycle process will solve this problem, be examples for wider society, and then adopt or join those systems.
Wait, is it government or not? Because this sounds more like corporations than government.
What payout/reward system are you referencing?
Society, in the best case scenario, elects the government - puts people in a position to make the right decisions for them. One problem with the current political system and structure is that if you have only a 4-year term, then people game/play the system to give them the best looking perception so they get elected again; this in part is why I feel it will be private organizations that don't have a 4-year elected cycle process will solve this problem, be examples for wider society, and then adopt or join those systems.
I don't understand your reference to Donald Trump.
