Jacques Fresco is a very good man with a good mind, a god mind you might say. You won't find him in the media today. He's a very simple man with an extraordinary amount of common sense. Something one doesn't see to much of anymore. He has the sense to know being smart is not necessarily a good thing. Yet he does say technology will save us. I just happen to agree with what this gentleman is offering, though he, himself, can be a little outspoken when surrounded by those who think the status quo is just fine. This man is right on the mark. A resource based economy is the only way we will save ourselves from the damage money has done to the world. If you are one who whoreships, excuse me, worships money, then of course you may not agree with Jacques Fresco. I find it rather unique, even his name depicts outdoor freshness of what can come from allowing the beautiful and abundant natural energy resources work for all of us.
This thread is wide open for anyone to comment as to what THE VENUS PROJECT is all about. I have never been one to ascribe to the opinions of any one individual but in this man's case I am more that happy to make an exception. When asked about CHRISTIANITY, he said he thought is was a good idea; just when are we going to put it into use? Ha!
I very rarely offer support material (links) as to how I think. Frankly because there are not too many people out there that think like I do. This man does. So in this case I will offer a link for your scrutiny here:
(Venus Project link). You then can find your own way through the pros and the cons expressed about what this man has offered from this link. As you will notice what this man thinks has not really been viewed by many people.
All I ask, being the author of this thread, is that for those of you who are opposed to what you learn about the VENUS PROJECT, please don't resort to hit and runs; offer good reasons and links that will support your antagonism. Please in all respects do not say "we can't AFFORD to" do what this man thinks or better, dreams. I feel we can't afford not to. Our current method of distributing what we know as wealth is seriously flawed and furthermore is the very problem of all the plagues that have ever befallen us. I not only believe with what this gentle man has to offer, I feel we must start immediately in applying a universal effort to insure what this man dreams will come true. If we are to have a better future, when do you think we should start? The amazing thing is this future will not cost us a dime if we all participate in this VENUS PROJECT. I like that. Do you?
