I don't want to run a business. I don't want to manage or profit from
|
||||
anyone. I should like to help everyone - if possible - Man, Woman -
|
||||
young - old. We all want to help one another. Human beings are like
|
||||
that. We want to live by each other's happiness - not by each other's
|
||||
misery. We don't want to hate and despise one another. In this world
|
||||
there is room for everyone. And the good earth is rich and can provide
|
||||
for everyone. The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have
|
||||
lost the way.
|
||||
|
||||
Greed has poisoned our souls, has barricaded the world with hate, has
|
||||
drone-striked us into misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed, but
|
||||
we have shut ourselves in. Robotics that gives abundance has left us in
|
||||
want. Our knowledge has made us cynical. Our cleverness, hard and
|
||||
unkind. We think too much and feel too little. More than markets we need
|
||||
humanity. More than profitability we need kindness and gentleness.
|
||||
Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost....
|
||||
|
||||
The internet and the smartphone have brought us closer together. The
|
||||
very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in humanity -
|
||||
cries out for universal kinship - for the unity of us all. Even now my
|
||||
words are reaching billions throughout the world - billions of
|
||||
despairing men, women, and little children - victims of a system that
|
||||
makes us torture and imprison in the slavery of wage labor.
|
||||
|
||||
To those who can hear me, I say - do not despair. The misery that is now
|
||||
upon us is but the passing of greed - the bitterness of those who fear
|
||||
the way of human progress. The rise of automation has taken so much away
|
||||
from so many, and the rewards, so far, given only to the few. As long as
|
||||
\textbf{we} have the ability to invent, \textbf{what was taken} can
|
||||
\textbf{not} be kept for long....
|
||||
|
||||
To the Makers among us, don't give your \textbf{time,} your
|
||||
\textbf{creativity,} your \emph{\textbf{life}} to a Corporation! An
|
||||
organization designed for the sole purpose of greed; Designed to take as
|
||||
much as possible for itself, to maximize shareholder value! Don't live
|
||||
for greed, \textbf{Design for Freedom!} We the Makers have the power to
|
||||
build Our Own automated production. \textbf{The power to create
|
||||
abundance!} We the Makers have the power to make this life Free and
|
||||
Beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure! In the name of
|
||||
Community and Free Information let us use this power, let us all unite
|
||||
towards a common project. Let us design a free and open source
|
||||
production system to provide \textbf{abundance for \emph{all}}\emph{.}
|
||||
By the promise of abundance corporations have risen to power. But they
|
||||
lie! They do not fulfill that promise. \textbf{They never will!} Free
|
||||
markets free Corporations, but they enslave the people! Now let us
|
||||
design a better world, a world of local sustainable automated abundance
|
||||
- to do away with greed, with hate and domination. Let us design for a
|
||||
world of reason, a world where science and progress will lead to all
|
||||
humanity's freedom. \textbf{Makers!} in the name of Freedom and
|
||||
Community, \textbf{let us all unite!}
