Happiness as the ultimate goal of cybernetics

It is argued that money is essentially a measure of energy. It is argued that the aim of the increasing use of energy has been to create a society in which people can be happy. It is argued that most people do not consider the direction in which society is developing, simply allowing it to go on blindly, but that the risks that result from this are greater than ever and threaten the very existence of mankind. There are two basic problems to be solved; what has caused these problems and how they be solved, and whether, if solutions exist, they are compatible with humankind´s happiness. Both of these problems must be analyzed based upon the careful analysis of human nature. This paper first discusses the problem of what aspect of human nature is relevant to the ceaseless increase of energy use and how such aspects can be utilized to evade the problem. The analysis of the human feeling of happiness will then be presented to examine if the life of decreased use of energy is compatible with human nature
