Who raises the standard of living? How? With what labor and what incentives?

Entire thread dedicated too that but i summarize it for you.


Who raises the standard of living?
* Mankind

How?
* Via application of technology and scientific methods for social concern.

With what labor
* This is open question , it can be dealt with various means depending how we arrive at the transition period. End game if full automation but before that there is a way how i could see it done. Notice : we probably wont experience full fledged RBE in our lifetime , but we can and should start moving towards it now.
     - Voluntarily , via open source projects
     - Government sponsored. We have fiat money , instead of borrowing them from private banks with interest attached , governments could print it ( but not like in Zimbabwe ) and use it for RBE implementation purposes.

what incentives?
So we dont die as a species or fall back into medieval like society via
* Globar war / depletion of resources / overpopulation
* environmental distater/pollution
So we are free from mindless jobs .
* many many others.
