Today, More People Have More Free Time

The Blue line shows how our gross domestic product (GDP) has increased since 2009. The Red line shows that 6.6 million fewer people were needed to produce the same amount of goods and services that were produced at the end of 2007.

6.6 million people are no longer needed to provide those goods and services. They could, of course, affiliate themselves with monasteries and convents, in which they would pray for themselves and their neighbors.

The people using their new-found free time to pray would grow closer to The Loving Programmer. The access that automatically comes with prayer would benefit them in every good endeavor they would be inspired to make.

Until there is a return to prayer, politicians need to find better distribution systems. Workers without work must be able to get access to the goods and services they are no longer needed to provide. Now, most of the savings from efficient production are absorbed into higher salaries for the Worldwide Bureaucracy and lush payouts for already over-paid executives. Those savings should be used to alleviate the salary shortfalls of those made redundant by improved ways to provide goods and services.

Instead of striving to help, many despise the unemployed. They, the victims, are blamed for the increased efficiencies that have rendered them jobless. Redistribution of production efficiencies must be more important than smugly enriching those who love themselves too much more than they love their neighbors.

One can imagine that The Loving Programmer has, for each of us, a spiritual measurement of how well we’re doing. That measurement will be what’s used to judge us “when the books are opened” (Rev 20:12). On it, each human program’s spiritual activity is recorded over time. We want to be sure that our page in “The Books” isn’t running in the red on the most important measurement of all, one that shows how much we love God and neighbor.
