There are more "educated" people on the planet that have been "educated" by the school system than in history. Yet the population continues to explode.

The hope is you'll go away because you're annoying and just keep blindly defending your ideas with anything you can pull out of your ass. Your whole movement is a joke and you only jeep giving it a worse reputation by continuing to post. Shut up and go do something productive.

Would you trust me to make decisions for you?

Venus Project = Communism with a splash of Star Trek?

You people don't understand the scientific method. You don't have a clue on how it works on social sciences. You also don't understand the actual economic system and you're lied (on every fuckin' Zeitgeist movie) about how it works for the sect to guide you to their misguided conclusions.

You can't use the scientific method if you don't know how to use it. You can't change economy if you don't know how it works.

People entering the Zeitgeist movement or the Venus Project are entering inside a sect/cult and that's a fact.

You people are fools. They fooled you because you didn't read enough books and you didn't think by yourselves. You are so confident just because the group (the cult/sect actually) reinforces your vision.

Yes, the world is fucked up. It always has been.  But it's not fucked up in the way you believe, because you don't understand nor the actual economic system nor the scientific method.

BTW: The Venus Projects advocates a dictatorship. The dictatorship of the people who write the AI that supossedly would substitute every political process, every engineer, every architect and every doctor (yeah I can link you to the actual Venus Project paper that states such NONSENSE).

You people are crazy sect sheeple.

And I'm not trying to convince you of that, you are inside a sect and I don't think you can easily be freed from the sect. I'm just here to warn people who read this thread and haven't entered YOUR CULT/SECT yet.

Premise of global happyiness for everyone:


One charismatic leader:


Monumental, fantastic visions detached from reality (everything is perfectly organised, huge, futuristic and beautiful)

Jesus guy, I sat through Zeitgeist Addendum didn't I, wasn't that enough?

I could write criticisms but frankly a glance through history should reveal that people have thought Venus Project thoughts before...

in history...



even in sci-fi...



Many, many times.

There is no Year Zero, if you don't know why already I cannot help you.

By all means dream your irrelevant pristine dreams, and don't let boring stupid tedious quarrelsome humanity get in your way.

Zeitgeist Movement and Project Venus are sects/cults. Just letting you know that.

We already live in a resource based economy.

The major problem we have is the fact that the monetary system is transferring wealth from the bottom to the top. With each new dollar that is printed a little bit of your current dollars goes down in value. The wealth is transferred to bankers and Washington (who gets to spend the new dollars first).

With bitcoin this does not occur. Rather the money supply inflates very quickly early on but slows down over time. Eventually it gets to the point where the increase in new money being created is marginal and results in little or no inflation. The power to print money is returned to the people who ought to be the rightful owners of it. Bitcoin is the currency of the people.

Thomas  Jefferson said in 1802:
'I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies.
If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property - until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.'

What he is referring to is that the power of the printing press allows banks to create artificial booms and bust cycles. When you want to create a boom cycle you simply start printing lots of money, which the banks lend. This creates easy/cheap credit which businesses and individuals borrow. This also creates an artificial boom in the stock market/asset prices. When you want to create the bust you simply stop printing money or reduce the rate at which you print. This makes it difficult for people to repay their loans. As a result they default. When people start defaulting it sends panic in the market and you get a bust. It is at this very moment that banks will fire up the printing press once again and buy up large amounts of assets for cheap. This is what occurred in the great depression and the more recent 2006 housing bust.

There is also the problem of interest. All money put in circulation has been done so by borrowing it at interest from the fed. It is impossible to repay 14.5 trillion in loans from the fed if there is only 14 trillion total money supply.

"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies.  Already they have raised up a moneyed aristocracy that has set the government at defiance. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs."    Thomas Jefferson

When you use bitcoins rather than fiat currency you are returning the power of money back to the people.
