More from Dan Pink

I've been a huge fan of Dan Pink's talk at TED, The Surprising Science of Motivation, and here is another presentation of these concepts.

So here we have a concept that shows money is not the motivator that many suspect it is. It removes a key piece of our national identity, and undermines the foundations of many or our intellectual tropes regarding our economic class structure.

So here's the question: Is this a liberal or a conservative idea? I mean, if we're increasing productivity and creating more effective work places, isn't that basically conservative? But we're talking about empowering individuals and normalizing pay scales, and isn't that basically liberal?

What do you think?
