Acvtually, I believe this is a very complex question, and that many Social
Crediters take it from the mistaken viewpoint the ordinary Joe Bloggs is as
intelligent as they are, therefore able to fill in spare time as usefully to
himself. (And some of us might not be too good at it!)
There is the point that, at least in this country, there is so much that could
be done and isn't. Care of the elderly and environmental problems for major
examples.
Plus what seems an obvious fact that many people, if "unemployed" feel unwanted
by society and tend to turn to crime.
Yes, we need to get away from wage slavery. Yes, everyone should have the
right to a reasonable existence whether he or she works or not.
But there is any heaven's amount of work for those that want to do it, and they
should have the right to employment and to adequate remuneration for so doing.
Then, of course, there is the principle of "education for leisure".
I think there is room for some highly intelligent person (or many) to put a lot
of thought into the whole situation.

". . . promising to look after them 'from the cradle
to the grave'." (John)
I believe the Cultural Heritage can do exactly that.
Remember that Douglas quotes H. L. Gantt that the U.S. economy (as one instance)
was only 5% efficient. You agree that we could and should have a lot less
employment?
