Grok AI is Great as a Labour Saving Device and a New Wealth Mine

I started using Grok recently to write shell scripts for my project. I'm useless at coding and do not want to learn. But need these scripts badly to make the project work. 

Roll out Grok - in just 5 minutes it wrote this script for me with just 3 branches to perfect it. All with logging and error checking - just like a wheel carried so much more load for the same amount of my effort a thousand years ago. Show me a single reasonable person who still worries about that boon!

In the past this software development work has cost me hundreds of dollars each time to hire a Developer. Not any more! 

For a link to the Grok exchange follow this

For those who worry about new inventions "taking my job", firstly, no job belongs to anyone. You are the archetypal Luddite if you go near this irrational response. Be bold and rise above that poor attitude and make hay with the new tech. If you're currently an old world Dev then move onto the higher ground and become a new world Dev. Let natural wastage kill off the old world. 

So there's no fundamental difference in innovation terms between the invention of fire, the wheel, steam etc.etc. and AI. All are fantastic labour saving devices. And that is all. To worry about it is the same as it was to worry about the invention of the wheel. 

And every fantastic invention has improved the productive power of any economy which adopts it. And the first economy to adopt it will be the first to gain in the biggest way. As will be all of the people who constitute it and exploit the new tech first. 

Are there caveats though? 

The thing is, no fantastic invention has ever improved the distribution of wealth, one iota, ever. By improving the distribution of wealth we mean - who ever creates the new wealth with their own skill and effort or own inputs of saved capital, gets to keep it. And those who contribute none of these things, do not get any of it! 

*** Please Note this below

But why have all new inventions never improved the distribution in the end? Because while land remains untaxed private property, and productivity remains taxed highly, all the gains will end up in the value of land. 

For evidence take a look here with the worlds largest economy. Look at the biggest line items, hidden away in the bottom row. Isn't it curious no one ever mentions it? I wonder why.

There's no escaping this because no wealth can be produced without exclusive access to a piece of land, anywhere in this universe, even Mars. And the best and most valuable pieces of land can produce the most quantity of wealth as an output. And its the wealth we want most, not the money we use to buy the wealth with. 

Given the natural laws of economics, the demand for these more productive pieces of land will rise, obviously. As will the annual rental value(The Rent) of this land and as a consequence its selling price.

And whomsoever owns the valuable land, when their wealth runs short, can open up a magic shaft in the ground revealing new and higher levels of wealth acquisition. 

And they can then say "This is mine!"

And so it goes...

*** Please Note this below

Please take note with extreme care here: there will be plenty of surplus for each of us to donate by voluntary choice to those who cannot access this 'free-nature' distribution for whatever reason, but that is a matter for the people, not the state. What you produce belongs to you as private property. Absolutely, and in justice. If you have empathy for those in need, then give it up right away. The justice of a nation is not made up by the law and its administration. It is made up by whatever the people make of it.

PETITION: Government to Indicate Countries of the UK Are Open to Accede to the US

A Dialogue on the UK's Accession to the United States Executive Summary This initiative seeks to foster a formal dialogue regarding the potential accession of the countries of the United Kingdom , to the United States , as individual states.  Simply put, this petition is asking the government to start a conversation about the benefits of leaving the UK and joining the United States. The objective is to evaluate the benefits to citizens and stakeholders, encouraging a constructive discourse on the political, economic, and social implications of such a union. If Wales , Northern Ireland , Scotland , or  England were to leave the United Kingdom, it would end their system of constitutional monarchy and parliamentary democracy . Instead, if they joined the United States as separate states, they would govern themselves under the U.S. federal system while receiving its protection. This proposal recognises that immediate change is unlikely but urges a serious conversation to addres...

Facing Draco, Mining Dorado - The 2026 Great Recession

This is a proposal to show how the 18.6 year real estate cycle is a hang over from times where the mechanics of the lunar month were used by high priests of the time to forecast ancient agricultural cycles - what we would today call a business cycle always culminating in a financial crisis and great recession. The 18.6 year astronomical period is governed by the intersection of lunar and solar eclipses. It is known scientifically as the Saros Cycle. Where all 3 harmonics of the orbit of the moon coincide once every 18.6 years. The ancient scholars knew this and had been measuring it for aeons. And the politicians of the time used it to name the day when the economy had to be deliberately reset by fiat. This reset was necessary because they noticed around 19 years is as long as an economy can survive when being unjustly abused by its people. Any longer making it too late to recover on its own. And without the reset much worse effects emerge. They knew this. They did not know why. They j...

The 450 Volt Truth: From Orwell to Obedience

A Complete Thread on Dystopia, Milgram, and Breaking the Agentic State - Why People Act Irrationally and Often Violently When a Tribal Social Structure and Its Hierarchy Are Brought Under Serious Scrutiny This is a tricky topic. Please read the Obedience Glossary of Terms before proceeding Executive Summary This piece was written from a long conversation with Grok. I had to interrogate the AI quite a bit. And was astonished at how it produced such intelligence. I've included the most pertinent parts. Do not be fooled into thinking this is just another Orwell analysis. That is just setting the scene well. For what comes later on the agentic state and how power uses it to control the masses.  It may not have all the answers. It might wrong. A lot of it is very hard to believe is happening. But it still seems to fit the bizarre world of system wide dissonance we all live and partake in today, better than all the alternatives. So deserves your continued attention. By all means make yo...
