Not surprised to see it. Actually after reading "Manna", I thought seriously about starting a software company and building the Manna system, but talked myself out of it.

One of the dollar stores is using something similar.

I think enslavement will probably not occur because remote manipulation will come on line sooner than later and simply eliminate humans. The issue will be for folks like Zaxby's; if you eliminate humans, humans don't have jobs and then who buys your product. The robots don't need it.

The real challenge (which you discuss in Manna) is how will we transition to something like particpatory economics. I think we can, but the upheaval getting there will be exponentially worse than the industrial revolution.

The folks at the very bottom will be impacted first and hardest and it will be difficult to keep society from breaking down as we attempt a transition.
