100 times happier, part 3

100 times happier? Really?
See what you think after reading this.
If a government, or some other agency, committed the extreme injustice of taking 90% of income off 90% of people, and giving it to 1%, would violence and misery increase? Everyone will readily agree that it will. So everyone knows and believes the connection between pay injustice and violence and misery. Would violence ever-increase? Yes, because people would never start to put up with it, they would fight forever against such a thing. And in such an unfair world, everyone would steal from everyone they could. such an extreme injusticewould set everyone against everyone. Everyone would start playing the all-grab-all game. Would happiness decline by a factor of 100? Maybe. Certainly, society would be in massive extreme upheaval, with riots and massacres and assassinations. Police and army would have to be enormously increased. Relatively egalitarian Scandinavia has 2% defense costs. Extremely overpaid-underpaid Middle East has 50% defense costs. What do humans want?
When people hear the terms social injustice, wealth disparity, they are not very interested. They turn off. They don't think it affects them. Even if they suffer home invasion, or get caught up in and injured in a police chase of criminals. Even if they pay 1000s for security measures. Although they may be wage-slaves. Although they have to live cut off from all humans of different 'socio-economic' classes. Although their quality of life is tainted by fear and danger, war and crime, suspicion and avoidance of most people. Although 99% of people are underpaid, are financing the overpay and overpower of the 1%. Although they have to pay the ruinous health costs. Or can't afford them.
So taking 90% off 90% and giving it all, 81% of national income, to 1%, would have very dramatic effects on happiness. So stopping that will have very positive effects on happiness. For a start, it would make 90% of people 10 times better off financially. It would restore 81% of national happiness by restoring 81% of earnings to earners. For seconds, it would remove superpower of the 1% over all others. It would stop warmongering, cannonfoddering, and other cattle treatment of the 99%. It would enormously increase democracy, freedom, political equality. it would stop an enormous amount of crime, and stop enormous costs of crime in fear, destruction, deaths, law cases, legal costs, lawmaking costs, hospital costs, etc. So I think 100 is not too big a number to put on it.
We humans in the present world have worse pay injustice than the above extreme example. Therefore we can be 100 times happier.
We have been playing the game of all-grab-all for 1000s of years, and built up enormous stocks of pay injustice, violence and misery. We can be 100 times happier because we have made ourselves 100 times more miserable by playing this game to such an extreme point. We have built up a huge bank of happiness for ourselves. We have been saving happiness for 1000s of years. We can begin to spend it.
All it takes is explaining to 4 billion adults the sense of increasing the money supply 1% every month, and putting it all equally into every personal account, one per person of course. Which will automatically reduce overpay and underpay steadily and peacefully towards greater and greater happiness for all.
Where would the resistance to such a plan be? Only among the 1%. Those among the 1% who are incorrigibly attached to money and power. And those among the 99% who are incorrigibly attached to underpay and underpower. Irrational opposition to any change is not limited to the overpaid. Resistance would come from all those who prefer the fatal game to survival and 100-fold happiness for all. From all those who refuse to face the real high possibility, almost certainty, of extinction in the next century. Refuse to face it on the irrational grounds that extinction is unpleasant. And from all those drugged out on sand in the head. From the people who have made pretty pictures in their head and are watching them.
The problem is how to get people from pleasant fantasy to pleasant reality via unpleasant reality. We can't clean up the mess in the house if we can't face the fact of the mess.
But the solution is so easy. It is like merely having to press a button to tidy the house. We can dampen the game down to any level we like best. We can have the game without going so far as to murder 100 million overpaid and underpaid each year. We can finetune the game to the level at which we are maximally happy, with as much excitement and danger, and as much peace and friendliness as we like. Football fans go too far, and we restrain them.
Pay justice is a hugely undervalued stock. It pays huge dividends. Gigantic dividends. In every area of life, spiritual, emotional, financial, psychological. It is far and away the best investment of your time and money.
We have used our energies for 1000s of years to put money over our heads. Every family will have another US$70,000 a year if we pull the chain, and release all that on our heads.
If we just spread overfortunes on decease equally among everyone on earth, we will bring this shower of wealth and freedom and safety and friendliness on our heads.
The most one person can truly self-earn in a lifetime is around just US$3 million. Details of this calculation elsewhere. So taking all of estates except $3 million will be entirely just, will be returning stolen wealth, will be increasing pay justice. Just this one law, which will deprive no living person of overfortune, will bring this shower of happiness on our heads. Will establish peace and order forever.
The American dream of freedom from tyranny was based on prevention of wealth concentration. The founding fathers' plans to prevent wealth concentration failed. This one law, or the 1% inflation per month, will restore the American dream. The human dream of peace and plenty, freedom and goodness. It will destroy 99% of war and crime. Most or all so-called religious and racial conflicts are economic. Which you can see immediately from all the places in the world where there is religious or racial diversity without economic disparity, and there is no conflict there.
Which makes sense, because money makes almost all the difference, since it buys almost everything. All necessities of life, and millions of satisfactions, from biggest to smallest.
How much trouble do you want? You can have far less if you want it.
Do you want to travel your city and the world and always see happy, smiling, contented people?
Do you prefer peace to war?
Do you want to wave off your loved ones going off to war?
Do you want your loved ones or anyone to come home from war embittered and super-hardened?
Do you want to put into human hands the power to control millions of people into conquering your country?
A person with a billion can hire a million soldiers for 100 days at $1 a day. And they are doing so. With pay justice, one person would be hard put to hire one soldier.
How selfdestructive do you want to be?
How happy do you want to be?
