Background

  • Asking big questions, so here is room enough only for main points
  • Can mainstreamable enterprise be created to produce freedom and nonviolence?
  • Mainstream enterprise today relies on continued ecocide. Of the degraded lands, many are still threatened and in danger of deserfification. (ref) Arguments for desertification continuing and being human made (erosion 4 tons/acre net loss (ref for how much soil can be made in a year). Role of agriculture in this picture. Role of mining. Biodiversity loss. Soil food web in mainstream agriculture.
  • Modern day sweatshops and stats - growing or waning?
  • The modern day treadmill - we work hard just to maintain the system
  • Marcusian critique of rationality of supporting The System, except for the very few outcasts
  • 30% of all energy goes to funding war (ref and military stats). Sectors of economy stats.
  • Military spinoffs - reframes as continued exporting of military mindset (competition vs abundance and post scarcity culture) - thus cost to society being significant
  • Most of civil society is non-entrepreneurial, so revolution is both feasible and unfeasible.
  • Entrepreneurs are not in general social entrepreneurs
  • Continued Gini Coefficient ailments. But is it improving currently - ref. Talk to Gini scholars.
  • Transition from technology colonies to open source eco-industry
  • The simple question: What happens when people attain material security, and with style? Ie, when we do it with nonviolence?
  • Define nonviolence - the OSE Definition of Nonviolence - not disempowering others, not continuing ecocide and desertification, and pollution
  • Define OSE Localization - transition to abundant feedstocks - rocks, scrap steel, scrap metal, plants (fuel, oil, bioplastic), water, air. The deep materials ecology embodied there for steel, concrete, building materials, insulation, fuel, food, and synthetic chemistry
  • Material basis for nonviolence - 99% of conflict is resource based. Religions are resource based, so hold on to your wallet.

OSE Solutions

  • Lifetime design modular construction set for 10x resource productivity. Case of Box Beam Tubing and Universal Rotor
  • Distributive Enterprise goals - can practical post-scarcity be achieved
  • Local enterprise as solution to pollution - closed loop, in your backyard, therefore you must care.
