A fantasy about the responsible use of money by the wealthy

Actually, this quip does not just apply to the "wealthy"; for example, a construction worker who had found himself in possession of a couple small houses when the real estate prices started rising rapidly; he soon found that merely buying houses, holding them for a few months and then selling them, he made more far money than from his construction job, which he was then tempted to quit. This would have changed him from being a producer (on his construction job) to something that I won't label but will say is one who takes money without giving comparable value-added in return.

We Aspies (those with "Asperger Syndrome" or "High Functioning Autism" per some more formal labels) apparently are characterized by non-Aspies (the vast majority of people) as "not knowing their place", "too smart for their own good", and "not smart enough to keep their mouth shut." So in that spirit, this Aspie is wondering (while dimly aware of the extreme irritation the very idea would cause the Powers That Be) what if there were a way that all people be allowed control over money (above and
beyond a comfortable middle-class income level lifestyle) and its uses only in direct proportion to their ability to use the money wisely? Wise use of money is only very indirectly linked to using money to make more money; so I would say that the wise use of money is only to improve the functionality, including resource management, of the overall systems in which one lives, of course along with one's loved ones, which could even include all humanity. That system would include linking into the ever larger interlocked systems, including the earth's whole diverse ecosystem, as well as all the other nations ... down the line; civilization in general, always having responsibility for its well being.

Making money just off of predation on the larger system, easy money as that has been, ultimately destroys the source of the prosperity if it has not been enabling the thriving of the source of prosperity all along. Those referred to primarily here are not just the "wealthy" but also the faceless folks who pull the strings on large corporations and even those with hands on government purse strings, local, state, and national. Not a bunch of folks I think is wise for me to poke with this sharp stick, however.... But, the "Aspies are not smart enough to keep their mouth shut" rule applies here.

Summarizing, the present thought is that a more perfect world would allow money into the hands of "wealthy powerful" people only in proportion to their track record of the wise use of money to improve the functionality, including resource management, of the overall systems in which one lives, along with one's loved ones. That system would include linking the immediate activity into the ever larger interlocked systems, including the earth's whole diverse ecosystem, as well as all the other nations .... down the line; civilization in general, always having responsibility for its well being so as to preserve and expand the whole chain source of the wealth involved.

This is analogous to becoming farmers instead of hunter-gathers; necessary because mankind has changed from being merely a flea on the back of the world dog, into a major player in the game of world life; and it is better to become friends with the dog, which could become "man's best friend."
