How do we move from where we are to a more successful society?
It starts with defining what we mean by a successful sociey. Society's role is to serve the wellbeing of its people. Money is a partial means to that end. It is not an end in its own right.
Society achieves its objectives by coordinating the activities of its people to work together in the best interests of its people overall. The minimum acceptable standard is where everyone has enough to live in comfort, safety and happiness.
The Wellbeing Economy Alliance has a page devoted to explaining the narratives outlined below in more detail.
