Dead For Tax Reasons

Association REDefine Apr 15

You start noticing it once you see it.

Not just in kitchens, but everywhere: the gap between contribution and recognition. Between what sustains a system, and what gets named as valuable.

And once you see it, it becomes harder to ignore how much of the world still runs on invisible hands.

Commoning-Muster der Woche Mar 22

❓ Wie und auf welchen Grundlagen werden unterschiedliche Tätigkeiten anerkannt?

❕Sich um Mitmenschen und gemeinsam Genutztes zu kümmern, ist unabweisbarer Teil des Wirtschaftens. In diesem Verständnis, sind Sorge-Arbeit (Care) und "produktive" Arbeit gleichwürdig. Beide verdienen vielfältige Formen der Wertschätzung, die sich nicht daran orientieren, was wie gut verkaufbar ist. Bezahlung ist dabei nicht das primäre Mittel der Anerkennung. Entscheidend ist, dass Menschen ausreichend Zeit haben zu tun, was zu tun ist und dass sie über die Art der Anerkennung selbst bestimmen.

👉 Zeitbanken, wie die Stadin Aikapankki aus Helsinki, bewerten Zeit, Bedürfnisse und aktive Beiträge aller Beteiligten gleich.
👉 Die Gleichwürdigkeit der Tätigkeiten drückt sich im selbstverwalteten Krankenhaus von Cecosesola unter anderem darin aus, dass alle ihre jeweiligen Arbeitsplätze selbst reinigen. So entsteht die Anerkennung aller notwendigen Tätigkeiten im eigenen Tun.

Robots took the #bluecollar jobs.
AI is taking the #whitecollar jobs.
But you can't automate away the #pinkcollar jobs.
Let's build a #careeconomy that values humanity.
