COVID Economic Recovery
Introduction
OSE's goals are 3 main ones, personally and politically:
- Developing collaborative design protocols for Open Source Product Development that can lead to the Open Source Economy.
- Mass creation of right livelihood via distributed production.
- Personal growth towards a high level of health and Self-Determination
Collaborative Design for Open Source, Distributed Production
Collaborative design could shift efficiencies of economies 10x, and this would be an unprecedented paradigm shift. OSE can work on this most effectively by refining the tools and protocols that it uses for open source product development. This assures access to wealth everywhere, and promotes a shift to entrepreneurial activity by a society of capable producers, rather than dependent consumers. This clashes with notions of specialization, where in order to specialize into narrow fields, people outsource life-sustaining productive activity to others. OSE calls for a shift where cities produce all that they need as Circular Economies.
Thus, right here with a circular economy we have at least a 10x increase in wealth, making for a structural improvement in the economic system.
How best could OSE impact this? OSE can work on this most effectively by refining the tools and protocols that it uses for open source product development.
Cost of Living
If you examine the highest costs in one's life, it is housing, cars, and food. See Cost of Living.
