    The Single Most Important Idea Of All Time But We Will Reject It

    Wednesday, April 8th, 2009

    The single most important idea of all time is, creating a resource based economy.

    This idea was thought up by an engineer named Jacque Fresco.  It is called, The Venus Project.  The idea is that we first do a survey of all the resources on Earth so we know what is available.  We then use technology of the highest possible quality to create high quality, self sustaining cities.  These cities will be designed to provide all the resources human beings need to survive to everyone on Earth.  The resources will be in great abundance to all.

    There will be no more government, starvation, religion and money.  You can have whatever you want on Earth if the resource is available.  The Earth will become the government.  Intelligent machines will make all the decisions based on the carrying capacity of the Earth.  The only real problems will be problems that affect us all.  Such as Earthquakes, meteors, storms, floods, etc.

    If all the resources of the Earth were shared by all the people on Earth then we would have way less reasons to commit crimes against each other.  If people did actually commit any crimes against each other then they would be treated like sick patients and would be actually studied for the purposes of finding out what it was exactly what caused them to commit such acts and a real solution would be found.

    The reason I say this idea will be rejected is because the roots of our current system of competing for money are very deep and many people will not have the courage and intelligence to realize that we must go in this direction in order for our species to survive.  The small groups of people all over the world who control most of the resources will not want to share.  Our monetary system has actually reprogrammed our species to think only in terms of competing with other humans for the sole purpose of getting more money.

    Although there are different Countries in the world with different systems.  Most of them use the system that creates a currency for the use of purchasing goods and services.  The underlying truths about these systems and how they truly affect society have been hidden.  These systems have been hurting our species instead of helping them.

    For a complete breakdown of how this works.  Watch the videos of  The Zeitgeist Movement.

    The Zeitgeist Movement: Orientation

    Sunday, April 5th, 2009

    “The Zeitgeist Movement is the activist arm of The Venus Project , which constitutes the life long work
    of industrial designer and social engineer, Jacque Fresco. Jacque currently lives in Venus, Florida,
    working closely with his associate, Roxanne Meadows. Now, let it be understood that Mr. Fresco will
    be the first to tell you that his perspectives and developments are not entirely his own, but rather
    uniquely derived from the evolution of scientific inquiry which has persevered since the dawn of
    antiquity. Simply put, what The Venus Project represents and what The Zeitgeist Movement hence
    condones, could be summarized as: ‘The application of The Scientific Method for social concern.’”

    This passage was taken from The Zeitgeist Movement PDF they offer for free on the main site.

    You should watch this hour and a half orientation video video called The Zeitgeist Movement: Orientation.  This is a must watch video in my opinion.  It makes too much sense to ignore.  Basically, we all need to understand that this planet has more than enough resources for all of our species.  These resources could be accessible to everyone if we wanted them to.

    Our current systems do not allow this and they need to be removed for a much better system.  Our current system of govenment and monetary are outdated and need to be upgraded.  This project seeks to create that change.  Just simply watch the video and it all will make sense after.

    Check out the main site for more information on how to get involved.  I have been looking for a worthy cause to be a part of for a long time and I think I have finally found it.
