I am rarely truly inspired, but Jacque Fresco is an absolutely brilliant man. Of course, we will have to overcome some flaws in human nature for this to work. I'm willing to cooperate, are you?
How are you going to build your satellite controlled submarine with no money?
I'm glad you asked. With no money, I can't build one. But, the resources are there to build one. There is enough food in the world that no one should go hungry, and enough HIV medication that no one in Africa should go without---THERE'S JUST NOT ENOUGH MONEY.
I knew that someone would point out that thread on my submarine idea, and it is my pleasure to tell you that you are the subject of everything I have posted today. These threads are running together to illustrate my point more clearly.
Think about this. In WWII America only had 600 fighter planes, because that's all we could afford. But, during the war we started producing 90,000 planes per year...not because we could afford them, but because we had the raw resources. There are enough resources in the world for every man, woman and child to live comfortably. In order for human kind to move forward, money as we know it must be eliminated and a new world will emerge. A very large chunk of crime and all wars are a result of artificial scarcity created by the system we have now. For this to work, humans must first be willing to begin to respect one another.. I am willing to cooperate.
Ironic, isn't it? By shedding off greed, we would actually gain more.
Money is convenience.
