Economics (Social Science) - August 2006

My guess is that they add everything together. 47K was a number posted earlier, most of the people in my area work overtime to make $25,000 per year which really isn't much when you stop and figure what the cost of living is these days. Is it true that factory workers and people that are stuck in the manufacturing sector are actually making less than they did a few years ago?

What alternative(s) are there to money, to help improve the lot of the majority?

Star Trek creator Mr. Gene Roddenberry R.I.P. had a future Earth based on a global community with no money or method of 'fair' exchange, because there was no need.

Such a preposterous situation is, I think, wholly unrealistic, unreasonable and unrealisable without radical advances in technology and political will-power.

My question (above) is intended to illicit the groundwork for achieving Mr Roddenberry's prophetic vision.
