Memo: Availability as an Indicator of Post-Capitalism

First world culture-benefits live within a paradox of being both hyper-capitalist while also demonstrating post-capitalist values through all that remains in touch, in availability.

Abolishing capitalism if often mistakenly imagined as a barbaric age in which nothing is available because no one will want to create or produce without the benefit of being paid. This mistaken perception is all too obvious. It is low-minded and lacks imagination.

Of course people will still want to help the community though producing goods for necessity and comfort. Consider how we still have recordings of music from the 1960s, the 1940s, the 1920s. Yes, we can only personally possess these recordings through financial trade, but they are available. That is a mark of seeing value beyond capital.

Availability as a custom of culture proves post-capitalist communities could work. We see value in community, culture, and being able to share, to produce, to being there for others, and in understanding the innate value of communicating value with one another in terms that go beyond financial gain.
