into our lives, <strong>the</strong> amount of waste dropped radically. Things that used to last a year or<br />

two now lasted 20 or 30… Or virtually forever.<br />

Farms were developed to run organically <strong>and</strong> in harmony with nature. And it was gentle<br />

robot shepherds that were developed for <strong>the</strong> projects as <strong>the</strong>y spread out. The poison that<br />

was genmod, <strong>the</strong> soil-sapping fertilizers, failure to rotate crops – all this vanished. In its<br />

place <strong>the</strong> Earth returned to a pastoral state.<br />

As long as people needed distribution, <strong>the</strong>y could request it – <strong>the</strong> system of distribution<br />

having been set up via AbundanceParadigm.web – <strong>and</strong> country stores as well as city<br />

markets were well stocked, <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> food was first very cheap <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong>n free. Many,<br />

having “gone camping,” started <strong>the</strong>ir own plots to grow food.<br />

It did not take long for money to lose its hold of <strong>the</strong> humans on Earth. Though many<br />

thought this would be a long <strong>and</strong> involved process, it really took only a few years.<br />

Yes, <strong>the</strong>re was resistance by many a corporate toadie. It took a bit for it to dawn on <strong>the</strong>m<br />

that <strong>the</strong>y didn’t have to have a boss. The appeal of that finally won over many – most<br />

had a human heart, deep down, <strong>and</strong> only made choices as <strong>the</strong>y did because <strong>the</strong>y could see<br />

no o<strong>the</strong>r choice. They became involved in speaking truth, helping, <strong>and</strong> making it all<br />

happen…<strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong>n <strong>the</strong> rest, <strong>the</strong> lizard hearted, followed into <strong>the</strong> paradigm.<br />

As money slipped into uselessness, as people could, more <strong>and</strong> more, just ask for things<br />

<strong>and</strong> were given <strong>the</strong>m, <strong>the</strong> rules of <strong>the</strong> l<strong>and</strong>s were found to be unnecessary. Only <strong>the</strong> three<br />

Laws were seen as needed. Do not willfully kill or harm ano<strong>the</strong>r, do not willfully take or<br />

damage ano<strong>the</strong>r’s property, <strong>and</strong> do not willfully defraud ano<strong>the</strong>r. Regulations, statutes,<br />

acts, codes, m<strong>and</strong>ates, <strong>and</strong> so on were ignored – who needs a tax code when <strong>the</strong>re is no<br />

money to tax? Who needs <strong>the</strong> statutes on social services when no one needs social<br />

services? Who needs regulations when everything was built with care, <strong>and</strong> with an eye to<br />

lasting? When cheap crap was made no more?<br />

It was st<strong>and</strong>ard for those who loved to create things to do so with camera running, so<br />

o<strong>the</strong>rs could admire <strong>the</strong> process of craftsmanship that went into any effort. People<br />

avoided things mired in secrets. The more open about processes <strong>and</strong> programming, <strong>the</strong><br />

more it was esteemed.<br />

Open-source was <strong>the</strong> way to go, <strong>and</strong> though <strong>the</strong>re were no rules against proprietary<br />

software, anyone who used <strong>the</strong> proprietary software did so at <strong>the</strong>ir own risk, whe<strong>the</strong>r it<br />

was in <strong>the</strong>ir computer or in <strong>the</strong>ir robots.<br />

Many at <strong>the</strong> outset thought that Jump Doors <strong>and</strong> replicators were decades off, but <strong>the</strong>y<br />

did not grasp what <strong>the</strong> results of <strong>the</strong> infinite point on <strong>the</strong> technology curve would be.<br />

Though <strong>the</strong>re were efforts to disparage <strong>the</strong> fact, technology was advancing geometrically<br />

for <strong>the</strong> last 5,000ish years, with a very slow start, <strong>and</strong> in <strong>the</strong> 1800’s beginning noticeably<br />

upward, <strong>the</strong> 1900’s saw <strong>the</strong> curve shoot up enormously, <strong>and</strong> in <strong>the</strong> early 21 st century…<br />

That rate of tech development was nearly pointing straight up. Nearing “infinite.” With
