We need to look specifically at every activity humans do, and do it with a prejudice for our places and against "the economy" as we know it. We have gone far too long allowing people who have interest only in unquestioned growth to use money and wasted fossil fuel powered work(physics definition) to define our personal value and common morality. Standard practice has been to work people and the planet to death while taxing the flow of value to promote growth. The reverse would be to tax the economy at the choice point (checkouts) and use the revenue to promote places and people closest to that work (UBI, health, education, community strength). We should pursue regenerative agriculture, science, and transport for usefulness rather than to sell cars, etc. Robots, automation, AI and sensibility should be used as tools for us to think as net generous contributors to resources rather than net consumers. It is difficult to imagine while our frame of reference is so deeply entrenched in war markets (consumerism was promoted to keep factories running at WWII levels). We aren't allowed to imagine living without the advertised products that previous generations didn't imagine were needed.
The fight for Degrowth needs to start as a battle against a culture of competitive blind uselessnes(invisible hand apathy toward competitive unfettered rapacity).
