That would presume we are all collectively interested in reducing complexity and work. Too often these complexities exist to benefit a small minority at the expense of the majority.

- zby 12y agoAgreed - this will not be that easy to fix, but still if we want to fix it than we need to think about reducing the complexity. I have also a very tentative idea that this might actually lead for more democratic organizations - because removing the inefficiencies that come from the complexity will bring a lot of advantage for the companies that would do it - and this will require more creative thinking and good will from everyone in the organization. This is just like science would not thrive in a too autocratic institution - so the universities had a lot more internal democracy than for example production companies. And today production companies will have the same need for creativity and good will as the universities had in the past.
