the thing it's supposed to be for) dress-up extravaganza that it is -- And then it might actually become (or be replaced [likely with "AI"] with) a system of distributing resources that is hopefully more efficient than the current abysmal policy-making system we have now.
BTW there is something I don't get in this whole RBE/Zeitgeist/Venus thing. In a post-scarcity economy, why would you need a political system to distribute resources?? Isn't that contradictory? People (sometimes) need to ration things precisely when they are scarce. If there is no scarcity, why don't you just let people build whatever they need when they need it?
