That obviously isn't going to work at any sort of scale. Currently, the entire economy is set up to make profit from producers. Perhaps what is needed is a severe paradigm shift in the expectations of humanity and what is required to be part of society. Remember that Star Trek had no money... it was a communist system! :D

It was!

I also wonder what affect climate change will have on all this as well... I've seen predictions of a billion climate refugees over the next 2 decades as extreme weather events like floods and drought force people to move. Maybe everyone's job will be rebuilding out of flood plains and where fresh water sources are available?

Possibly. There is a lot of disruption coming in terms of the environment and this might save us economically. Though we will be screwed as a species! :D
