<< Capitallism Implications >>
A few of the manifold implications are outlined below.
The maximum wage is set such that it is not a hindrance to the vast majority. If one
chooses not to invest much time into work, then it is likely that earnings will fall below the
maximum wage. This also implies that one can strive for material gain, should one choose to do
so, though avarice is no longer as lucrative.
As opposed to a more communist structure, capitallism allows for personal freedom in
how one spends money without requiring the empowering of the government to handle (or
mishandle) the assignment of ration cards or quotas.
The fundamental law is the cap--a superstructure outside of regular law. Government
resources regulate the cap while remaining under the cap. Institutional law is under the law not
above the law.
The basket price of items will in the course of things decrease. All sectors and industries
--energy, financials, media, retailing, insurance, transportation, health care, etc.--will shift from
large conglomerates and return toward medium and small business. Competition and innovation
will continue to exist as long as life exists, and its commercial opportunities still viable to those
who desire... but capitallism essentially removes money from the realm of competition. You
cannot gain a practical monetary edge over competitors, but neither will competitors gain a
monetary edge over you.
The distance between the haves and have-nots returns to lesser extremes, reducing
hostility, reducing the overall cycle of violence.
The current usage of the "third-world" countries for sweatshop manufacturing plantations
is inhibited.
Lobbyists lose political persuasion. Things such as ecological causes for sustainable
living rise in priority, being paid real service instead of lip service.
Realizing that extreme personal wealth beyond the cap is impossible no matter how hard
one tries, the glass ceiling is seen for what it is. Futile energies formerly aimed at wealth
accumulation is directed elsewhere, and people have more time to cultivate activities such as
family, art, sport, existentiality, relaxation, and social service to name a few. These activities
spread, influence other activities which spread, ad infinitum... creating a new flavor of society.
