It seems very reasonable to pilot test the "own nothing and be happy" policy goal of the WEF. A small group that owns many things would make an ideal sample group. Preferably a small group, spread out globally, with many assets to have "disowned". So the best sample group that comes to mind is...the WEF, it's leadership, staff, Board and members. Let's have their assets seized, move them into cute 650 sf apartments, or better yet, homeless encampment they have helped create do many of.

After, say, 15 years living like that they can provide us with excellent reports on how things worked out.

I concur. Let's see what happens when the Bilderberg Group and Club of Rome folk own nothing. And / or the Rockefellers.

A long winded video telling you to not buy a BEV. I get reminded daily as I drive to work and pass the black concrete of the recent BEV fires on the highway. The ongoing cost with everything subscription based to operate any vehicle negates any benefit if that vehicle. Just don’t buy one unless you’ve got a few thousand you don’t care about spending on something else.

Perhaps we should all move our computers in the open software Lynix that many have forgotten but is still vibrantly living unheralded. And disconnect our home and office computers from the internet, and connect to the internet only from a dedicated internet computer for search and email purposes. Cumbersome, a bit, but the benefits would be enormous. Perhaps we can convince Elon Musk to join the fray by asking him to promote it on X.
