Closed vs open source Economy
Socialism and Capitalism... or one day each per week?
The diagram comparison below is part of a forthcoming publication that qualitatively recounts the personal life experience of Kurt Brenneman, co-founder of humus.io, in arriving at the same conclusions set forth by Peter Kropotkin in The Conquest of Bread (1906), without ever having read Kropotkin's brilliant work; an international landmark so elementary to Human Economic Purpose that one can only imagine why it wasn't assigned in secondary public school curriculum. These findings of fact, from diverse experience over time, reveal:
That both the Socialism of inflation and taxation, and the Capitalism of inequality and imposed scarcity, are equally integral and necessary to feudal monetary systems.
That closed source debt-money is a pyramid scheme of human design, for exploitation, private profit and secrecy; an arbitrary construct that is intrinsically and irreconcilably divided against itself by the physics of technical efficiency and community fairness ultimately required for human survival.
That about one day of participation per week, per capable adult (2020), is all that is required to satisfy everyone's mutual economic needs most equitably and comfortably, without the abstract, high-cost complexity layer of money and taxation corruption and destruction.
That oneday.community takes the money pressure off everyone and connects us directly to the reality of Human Economic Purpose, regenerative ecology, and a meaningful life of individual free agency and personal wellbeing.

Community is the currency of human agency and fear is lost in transparency.

Closed Source Conflicts of Interest:
"Only 13% of large government software projects are successful. State IT projects, in particular, are often challenged because states lack basic knowledge about modern [open source] software development, relying on outdated procurement processes. Every year, the federal government matches billions of dollars in funding to state and local governments to maintain and modernize [proprietary] IT systems used to implement federal [and state elections, and] programs such as Medicaid, child welfare benefits, housing, and unemployment insurance. Efforts to modernize those [proprietary] legacy systems fail at an alarmingly high rate and at great cost to the federal budget."
