THE HISTORY OF TOMORROW

I call the right and the left, the progressive and the conservative. Let´s
prioritize the interests of the developing world. Let´s build towards a world of
cornucopia and eutopia. Let´s love and dream.

The History of Tomorrow starts on the decem date. The decem date takes place on
the triple-ten, a Sunday, the referenda date that will populate the developed
world with the ballots of those that said why not instead of why. The History of
Tomorrow triggers the Glorious Forty, able to push the globe forward towards the
world of 2050, a world of cornucopia and eutopia, the world of Decemland, the
land of ten percent.

I call all dreamers to start thinking of the world they dreamt with. I call all
dreamers to imagine the design of their utopia. We are one year away and
brainstorming must start. I call the expert dreamers of our time. I call the
wise men and women of our time. I call the disciples of Marshall and Truman. It
is your time, a time when we must dare, therefore we exist.

I call all those who decided to never give up, who thought a better world was
around the corner. There will be a window of opportunity that we cannot forsake.
There will be a window of opportunity that we cannot afford missing. Those that
do not get on the train of optimism will leave in the prison of thought for the
rest of their lives.

I call the orthodox thinkers and academics to convert, to become believers in a
new paradigm, to leave their user´s manual behind and embrace new horizons that
lie ahead of us for which there are no quantitative models that predict future
outcomes.

I call the right and the left, the progressive and the conservative. Let´s get
on the same page. Let´s prioritize the interests of the developing world. Let´s
build towards a world of cornucopia and eutopia. Let´s love and dream.



I call the pirates of heartless capitalism to get ready to fight the battle of
their lifetime. I call the pirates of heartless capitalism to fight against the
best team of expert dreamers that has ever served the global public interest. I
found them hidden in the United Nations, the International Monetary Fund and the
World Bank. I found them in Africa, Latin America and Asia, in Europe and North
America. I identified them in my numerous trips. Let´s fight the battle of our
lifetime. Let´s defeat once and for all the pirates of heartless capitalism. I
found the heart that capitalism needs. We are in a transition from a heartless
to a loving capitalism.

I call all human beings to believe that a paradigm shift is around the corner. I
call all human beings to get ready for the journey of our lifetime. We shall
write page one of the History of Tomorrow. A better world lies ahead of us if we
are determined to improve and move ahead, leaving the fears of the baby boomers
and the two World Wars behind.

Bretton Woods does not represent our generation. Our problems are those of the
extreme poor. There are solutions to the great evils of our time that our
current elites forgot or abandoned, that our current elites thought belonged in
the imagination of our children, that our current elites decided to leave for
Hollywood movies or science fiction books.

There is a Decemland waiting around the corner. There are harmless armed forces
to be deployed on ten islands of peace. There are decempliant countries and
monfortable countries. There are povertimmune countries. There is a race of the
century leading to the establishment of the New International Territory. As far
as I know I am not a character from a Hollywood movie or a science fiction book.
As far as I know the expert dreamers that I identified are not in my
imagination.

The potential to build a better world is only feasible if we believe change is
around the corner. Let´s export the welfare state to those that were born to
live in eternal poverty. Let´s eradicate disease and hunger once and for all.
Let´s start building a new world, the world of no diplomacy, the world without
borders.

The new architecture of capitalism is the beginning of The History of Tomorrow.
We shall determine our own fate. We do not need Nostradamus or the Next
Nostradamus to dictate that the models predict a World War III. There shall be
no World War III if we defeat the Axis of feeble. There shall be no World War
III if we embrace the extreme poor and the environment.

It is time. It is time to shout the urgency of our time. It is time to say why
not instead of why. It is time to become men and women of political stature.
Where are thou disciples of Marshall and Truman? Where are thou disciples of
Monnet and Schuman? Shall you wake up Sleeping Beauty? Will you conquer the
American friend?

Let´s move ahead, let´s start the journey of our lifetime, let´s say why not
instead of why. There is a new world ahead of us, there is a society waiting for
us in 2050, expecting that we will undertake change and reform, expecting that
we will prioritize the interest of the most vulnerable.

It is time to start the journey of our lifetime. It is time to write page-one of
the History of Tomorrow. There is a window of opportunity and those that forsake
it will live forever in the prison of thought. I dream therefore I am.
