"I think there are many struggling to imagine how we could ever transition from the current system to an RBE. From my understanding, it will require a transition period, which could be up to 10 years or more. During this period, the structure of society stays pretty much as it is today, Government and it's agencies, including the police, the prisons and the military remain in place. It starts with a group of countries agreeing to go for it (The British Commonwealth, Europe and the USA for example) and it grows from there until the whole world is on board.
In each country, either a new Government is elected to oversee the transition, or an incumbent Government is forced to organise a transition, owing to extreme circumstances ( for example severe social conditions/hardship, civil unrest or serious changes in the climate for example) These Governments would be answerable to Citizens Assemblies during the transition period, ensuring that positions of power are not abused. Money is still used during the transition period, as a means to control resources and the population, probably via a Universal Basic Income. A mass re education of the population is undertaken by Government to prepare people for life in an Access Based Economy, a period in which our value system is updated. Production levels are cranked up so that everyone gets ACCESS to ( via a library of things, not ownership ) what they need to attain a high standard of living and money becomes obsolete over time.
Over a period of time, and Marx predicted this, the need for Government intervention and enforcement becomes less and less until it eventually 'withers away'
That's what Fresco thought and it's what Marx imagined too, so who am I to disagree ?"
