Really? How?

If most of Us were thinking implementing the ideas was a good thing, likely some of them will be toadies and the info We need will be released.  Add free energy everywhere. Start spending on retrofits, and new products. As the cost of energy is removed, robots become affordable. Spend money on robots in necessary work no One wants to do.  Have competitions, even. 

5-10 years from FE release, and We will not need money.

Add free energy everywhere.

Where's that free energy?

[Amaterasu]

Well in the closed system ArMaP described I would assume it was a mutaul agreement in other words all those people WANTED to do it that way

And that's fine if all WANT to do it that way.  If Those who decide They don't can move away.  In abundance I see many such communities.

Well if everyone wanted to do only that who would get the job done?

Robots.

I could list a hundred dirty jobs that NO ONE really wants to do but the are a necessity for a big city to function.  Who would do those jobs? And NO robots can't do them, at least not yet  So who would do those?

Bet robots COULD do that now.  They have robots for cleaning sewers...

But don't we already have that situation? Those that HATE work in our society have no money 

Not so.  I had money when I was in banking.  I HATED the job(s).

So basically... a global welfare system free handouts no need to work ergo no incentive to achieve.... anything  Result? stagnation, sloth and basically a planet full of useless eaters

Not so.  We will do things for SOCIAL currency.  Just as You do the ren faire type stuff.  Just as starving artists now do Their work - only They would not starve and have all Their tools available.  Just as musicians (and Those who WOULD be if They could afford an instrument) would create music...

People who CARE will become doctors.  People who CARE will become archaeologists.  People who CARE will report on the world around Them...

I know of few children (not counting fluoridated medicated kids) who have nothing They are fascinated by.  That They want to do...  Most cannot afford to follow that bliss.

in effect

I bet if You asked anyOne if They could retire with an unlimited bank account, NONE would say They would sit on a sofa and be a vegetable.
