{"product_id":"money-and-work-unchained-charles-hugh-smith-9781981226580","title":"Money and Work Unchained","description":"The current conventional-wisdom view of our soon-to-be future is rose-tinted: automation will free millions of people from the drudgery of work, then by taxing the robots doing all the work, we can pay everyone Universal Basic Income (UBI), enabling a life of leisure and artistic pursuit for all. The result: A future of Universal Happiness.But is this accurate? Is this what UBI is actually capable of doing?More importantly, is this what we want?And even more importantly: will this \"future\" be our best future? Will it account for and manage the practicalities of work, money and automation, given the limits of endless growth on a finite planet? Money and Work Unchained drags the now-popular concept of Universal Basic Income (UBI) from the shadows of Pundit blather into a harsh, illuminating light, and in doing so presents an entirely new view of the future that upends our conventional understanding of work and money.This book lays out a practical pathway that realigns work, money and human fulfillment into a sustainable system that sheds the inequalities and injustices of the status quo in favor of a human-scale way of living.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charles Hugh Smith\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1981226583\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781981226580\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/27\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 180\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.38d","brand":"Charles Hugh Smith","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48440238506239,"sku":"9781981226580","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fac2cd50-2c6f-4025-a866-4eaaf070144d.jpg?v=1777181109","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/money-and-work-unchained-charles-hugh-smith-9781981226580","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
