I&#x27;d recommend Critical Path and Grunch of Giants by Buckminster Fuller (1895-1983). Fuller was the former president of the Mensa society and claimed that a universal income became technically feasible in the 1970&#x27;s.<p>Critical Path:<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.btronics.com&#x2F;files&#x2F;R.%20Buckminster%20Fuller%20-%20Critical%20path%20(pdf).pdf" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.btronics.com&#x2F;files&#x2F;R.%20Buckminster%20Fuller%20-%...</a><p>&gt;World Game makes it clear that the world electrical systems&#x27; energy-network integration and its comprehensive powering of automated, special case machinery would most effectively counter the peril of overspecialization of the humans and would introduce the omni-Universe-operative, time-energy, kilowatt-hours-per-year, commonwealth accounting system. This cosmic accounting will computer-establish the up-to-the-moment-realized cosmic-energy-income-harnessing thus far accomplished; and the technical-efficiency levels attained in the various energy-employing technologies operative around the world; and the resultant per capita individually employable world commonwealth facilities; and the per capita &quot;consumable,&quot; &quot;employable,&quot; and &quot;enjoyable&quot; &quot;credits&quot; in respect to any specific consumables, commodities, services, conveniences, or tools as manifest on the satellite-relay-integrated world computers and as individually called for and read out on each individual&#x27;s electronic computer &quot;credit card.&quot; The individually available information will govern the individual&#x27;s design science choices of the highest relative-efficiency systems to be employed. It will also tell people whether they can do this or that, and if so, how they can go most swiftly— for instance, from New York to Australia—and will &quot;book&quot; a travel reservation and will prepay the bill for the travel accommodation. All such in- formation is continually computer-integrated to produce the commonwealth evaluations and their read-out-ability on world-individual&#x27;s pocket-computer &quot;credit card.&quot; These will always register the world individual&#x27;s share of the ever-increasingly-employable technological savings reserves and their respective technologically operative capabilities. With humanity employing such a world-around, satellite-relayed, and world-integrated computer accounting system, the world can, overnight, physically realize the &quot;Omnibillionaire Commonwealth&quot; of its humans.<p>Grunch of Giants:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;tripinsurancestore.com&#x2F;4&#x2F;grunch-of-giants.pdf" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;tripinsurancestore.com&#x2F;4&#x2F;grunch-of-giants.pdf</a><p>&gt;There exists a realizable, evolutionary alternative to our being either atom-bombed into extinction or crowding ourselves off the planet. The alternative is the computer-persuadable veering of big business from its weaponry fixation to accommodation of all humanity at an aerospace level of technology, with the vastly larger, far more enduringly profitable for all, entirely new World Livingry Service Industry. It is statistically evident that the more advanced the living standard, the lower the birth rate.
