And making everything circular PLASTIC is bullshit. And the putz says "individual homes" Which is pure bullshit. And this Musak Voiced Librium inebriated commentator can go fuck himself with a Federally approved suppository..."A continuous Extrusion" Indeed. Where is the "Harmony" this toad refers to?? And the world sits on a computer? Go to hell.

Jun 17, 2010 - I wasnt being sarcastic. I belive that The Venus project could work, but most people today doesnt. That was my point.

Jun 4, 2010 - If you would take let's say a medievil person to take a look at todays world, that person surely would say the same as you did; "too good to be true", while in fact it is not. But overall it will be the best we could ever achieve. Dispite all the possibilities the one thing we need is for all people to think the same way as it comes to survival and sustainability. well, maybe not all, but around a half a billion will do the job, trust me.

Nov 5, 2009 - Lol this is never gonna happen

danndan6 Says:

Oct 2, 2009 - i would not agree with paragraph 2 as an absoloute rule. it has happened and it will happen, but prime ministers do not go to bed thinking "how can i help the banks", they think "how can i help the country". alex jones isn't always right btw lol. the INNOVATIONS in war do help us alot. it is ironic but all the disaster relief advancements come from war...the helicopter and the jet etc. unfortunately, progress comes from necessity and war brings necessity. that doesnt mean i want war lol.

Madz1987 Says:

Oct 2, 2009 - I see what your saying, but who wants innovations in the war/police sectors at all? Its only the international bankers, weapon manufacturers and of course soldiers and police that benefit from those innovations. It doesn't help you personally at all. I don't like what i'm about to say but all the government, police and all the national and international institutions are not working for your interests but rather for the interests of the banking cartels and corporations, broadly speaking.

danndan6 Says:

Sep 29, 2009 - OK i now understand what you mean. nationalize the defence industry so people don't make profit out of war. i kinda agree but then again, there would not be as much innovation in that sector if it was nationalized. and what about the guys making small money by selling not guns but car stoppers like the X-net? they wouldn't have created this defence/police device if they were not allowed to by law. so there needs to be a line drawn and it's not easy to find where that line needs to be drawn

Madz1987 Says:

Sep 29, 2009 - No thats not how I meant it at all, I'm not concerned about the wages. It was just an example to point out the social stratification in our current system. Jacque Fresco said this great thing about war, it went something like this. "When they draft you for the army, you put your life up for this country they should draft all the war industries so no one makes a buck out of war then its real. When you sell weapons and become a multi - millionaire then war is slanted."

danndan6 Says:

Sep 29, 2009 - so you think a soldier should get paid more than the company that provides rifles for all the soldiers? i know abouit LHM but i don't believe that they create all the wars. sure, nurses should get paid more than singers but you cannot compare a company that produces multi million dollar jets to individuals

Madz1987 Says:

Sep 28, 2009 - I agree but war is not just for resources, power and control, its mainly for the arms industries making alot of money. When wars are fought billionaires are made. Search Lockheed Martin on Wikipedia and have a look at their revenue, its disgusting how much money they make for creating killing machines. Whereas soldiers get paid very little to go and die for something they know nothing about, Anything is better than a monetary system right now.

danndan6 Says:

Sep 28, 2009 - this is atm the ideal but more research must be done and less apathy and skepticism needs to be shown

danndan6 Says:

Sep 28, 2009 - instead of becoming more dependent on existing resources, we can invest into research and create new composite materials that require far less resources. we have a problem...we can grow paper, wood, and create oil by speeding up the rotting of wood. but we cannot regrow metal. we need to make ourselves require less metal by RnD like the new skyscraper in NY that needs 1/2 the steel for the size. summary...more RnD so we don't need to fight wars for the resources

Madz1987 Says:

Sep 6, 2009 - I just want to say that our language all over the world is so old and subject to interpretation. However the languages of engineering, science and mathematics is not. What I mean by that is for example if I create a blueprint for a building and send it to an engineer or architect in China he will design and build that building based on those specifications. He will NOT interpret it in his own way, the building won't stand for very long. So people won't have useless opinions anymore.

Madz1987 Says:

Sep 6, 2009 - "I'm just saying this model can only be acheived by stealing the 'resources' from tribal peoples' lands & using them for a 'minority'." A resource based economy is the intelligent management of ALL the earths resources to benefit ALL humanity. Your talking about "elitists" If we were to step into this possible future of The Venus Project there would be no such thing as elitism, NO politicians, judges, police or governments. No one makes decisions, decisions are arrived at based on logic.

Madz1987 Says:

Sep 6, 2009 - I also want to address what you said about one's idea of something vs another's idea of something, "An agro farming belt producing GM crops might not be MY idea of 'food'!" If you have arrived at the conclusion that you have created an extremley energy and environmentally efficient means of transport then logic would dictate that should be the means of transport from then on. NOT someones opinion.
