Grunch of Giants by R. Buckminster Fuller

The title of this 'sequel' to Critical Path is Fuller's acronym for "Gross Universal Cash Heist." Written in the 1980's in allegorical form, this serious satire about the rise of multi-national corporations, capitalistic selfishness and the technological revolution emphasizes that our present economic system, and the theories on which it is based are no longer useful because of its false assumption of scarcity.

From the forward:

"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."
