Work has dignity but is not the purpose of human existence. Economic progress should increase security, leisure and command over one's own life.
Position
Work has dignity but is not the purpose of human existence. Economic progress should increase security, leisure, family time, meaningful work and command over one's life.
Policy
- Renewed social status for craftsmanship, agriculture, engineering, care work, teaching and skilled trades.
- Productivity gains should not merely increase labour extraction.
- Automation should not eliminate meaningful human participation solely for numerical efficiency.
