Yeah its ok..ish but rather naive... the notion of a global command economy that succeeds where the soviet union failed is based on the notion that bar code tracking system is of a maturity that supply and demand and importantly equitable distribution can be more accurately modeled than current market actors who apply market competitiveness. The sections on city and urban design are almost comical like something out of Logans run. Part of human existence resides in organic unplanned growth and living in some bubble city is unlikely to be adopted. there is a fair amount of technorapture stuff flung in there which i find dubious.
The paradox is the film is correct I think about its criticism of market system inefficiency which is based around short term cycles of inbuilt obsolescence and debt. However a market system that use times scales of benefit measured generationally rather than individually would bring about a far greater degree of efficiency in a way this zeitgiest bunch hope for...
ie the market system is not invalid as long as the maximum profit is measured against the lifespan of the resource rather than a yearly salary or ledger sheet.
I suppose its thought provoking and brave...
its essentially a sort of scientific new age communism(dispite claiming not to be). I am not so much agin it but it looks out of place in this world.
sh!t is F@%ked up
