This is great food for thought. I like your idea of developing a new economic model as a proxy for possible futures; that at least can serve as a thinking platform. Your comment inspired me to look at historical examples of this happening. Two trends emerged: 1. Rapid change always precedes policy. Couldn't find any examples of the reverse. That doesn't discount what you're saying at all, it reiterates that we probably need to be as vigilant and proactive as possible. and related: 2. Things that seem impossible become normative. Electricity. The Industrial Revolution. Massive change turns into furniture. We adapt quickly as individuals even if societies collectively struggle to keep up. There will be many people that get caught in the margins, though. Consider me fully convinced!
