In the Global Mind Shift discussion, a commenter asked:

I totally like the idea of the story, but I don't quite get what this conversation is trying to do. Is this a place to respond to and build on the ideas in the story? Is it a place to continue building a story like the one you have written so far? Is it a place to build a story with characters and plot that explores some of the concepts that you are trying to get at?

I think we could approach it from any of the three directions you suggest. I am certain that there are better story tellers than I am. I have been thinking about the world as a pattern of flows for some 25 years and I need readers to question the way I describe those patterns so as to reach a common language about them. I am thinking about another of couple of chapters along the lines of what is already there - about limitations of the market - and another on the fact that no one else is going to do it for us.

More importantly, I am looking for a way that people begin to act on our power to create a future of peace and plenty.
