The title could have been "All Energy Is Created Equal" and it could have
stated that human work energy is measured in Joules, which is how it is
measured.

So I think I might change it to say that and it still would say exactly the
same thing except in a language that doesn't bother people who feel that
human work energy for a dentist is more valuable than human work energy for
a carpenter, when measured by the same stick.

To restate this in plain English, it suffice it to say that in the P2P
Energy Economy all work is equal because all work is measured using the

unit of energy, i.e. the Joule, so a dentist's work is not any more

valuable

than a teacher's work, while still allowing those who work harder get

more

back. In other words, it values all work equally while allowing people to
work as hard as they please and get compensated based on the absolute

value

of their work energy not the subjective value of their work.

Hm, measuring (human) work in joule is a bit like measuring energy in
meters
or feet, isn't it?
