The climate crisis and AI-driven job displacement are not separate problems. They are the same logic applied twice: privatise the gains, socialise the costs. Exiting the Open Cage names that logic, traces it to its root, and proposes a concrete alternative -- built not on ideology, but on data, institutional precedent, and the evidence of what has already worked. Drawing on sources including the World Inequality Lab, SIPRI, OECD, Oxfam, and the 2026 Global Justice Report, engineer and author Stefano Tucci argues that the current system is not broken -- it is functioning exactly as designed. The cage is open. The question is whether we are willing to leave it. This book covers: - Why neoliberalism is a sequencing error, not a moral failure -- and what the correct sequence looks like - A four-level economic architecture: universal public services, income floors, a global living wage, and capital redistribution - The monetary system that makes global wage convergence possible -- from Keynes's bancor to present conditions - How wealth is concentrated, how media constructs consent, and how organised crime is an economic response to structural poverty >For readers of Thomas Piketty, Kate Raworth, and Tim Jackson. For anyone who has noticed that the most powerful argument for maintaining the current system is also the most intellectually dishonest: that there is no alternative. There is. This book builds it, step by step.
