WATCH THIS!

Original by mariofalcescu on 3 Mar 2012

As the world looks today, it's terrible. Something must be done.
A change is imperative.
Money does not make the world go around, it destroys humanity, makes the rich richer and the poor poorer.
Think about it, make a change, it starts with YOU. BE the change!

This was from Supreme Master TV (http://www.suprememastertv.com). The television show was called Golden Age Technology that featured The Venus Project in two parts. I merged both parts together. The title of the segments was called Designing a Future of Peace and Progression - Jacque Fresco and The Venus Project. This aired in late December 2011.

The Venus Project-Resource Based Economy

by thevenusprojectmedia on 29 Aug 2011

The term and meaning of a Resource-Based Economy was originated by Jacque Fresco. It is a holistic social and economic system in which all goods and services are available without the use of money, credits, barter or any other system of debt or servitude. All resources become the common heritage of all of the inhabitants, not just a select few. The premise upon which this system is based is that the Earth is abundant with plentiful resource; our practice of rationing resources through monetary methods is irrelevant and counter productive to our survival.

Modern society has access to highly advanced technology and can make available food, clothing, housing and medical care; update our educational system; and develop a limitless supply of renewable, non-contaminating energy. By supplying an efficiently designed economy, everyone can enjoy a very high standard of living with all of the amenities of a high technological society.

A resource-based economy would utilize existing resources from the land and sea, physical equipment, industrial plants, etc. to enhance the lives of the total population. In an economy based on resources rather than money, we could easily produce all of the necessities of life and provide a high standard of living for all.

Carl Sagan Speaks Zeitgeist

From Wikipedia:
"Zeitgeist is the general cultural, intellectual, ethical, spiritual, and/or political climate within a nation or even specific groups, along with the general ambiance, morals, sociocultural direction, and mood associated with an era."

The late Carl Sagan (1934-1996) was a hero in the scientific community and a role model for everyone else around the world. Carl Sagan's' influences carry today because his words, hence his empirical point of view, seem to be ever more appropriate in our current economic and political climate.

The video does not advocate that Carl Sagan supported The Zeitgeist Movement as he passed long before its conception. Rather, using his own words, to simply show how Carl Sagan was in line with the thoughts and direction of this movement that concerns all of human kind.
