The Venus project is such a joke. Fresco hasn't gone anywhere in 30 years. One test facility new models and books but 0 progress towards attaining anything they claim. It has been about pushing a vision with hoping to one day see it a reality. But thats where it will remain, a group in a state of hope trying to get people to see. That does not create resource abundance and there is already another system with the same goal that has been in practice for decades. Permaculture. Food forests.
Open-e-farm is a great example of where the technology of abundance is headed. Anyone still supporting venus project should probably jump ship before they waste too much more time and get obboard with a practical functioning set of ideas that solves the problem of producing resource abundance. for bitcoins to truely work their decentralized nature must be matched with decentralized power distribution and the coins themselves becoming the base unit which with things are monetized. So long as we rely on a conversion through dollars to use bitcoins they will fail.

I agree in that Fresco needed TZM to come along and popularise his idea and his ego's now in the floodlight as someone that believes only he knows how to create a resource-based economy; all the world's scientists would fail at it apparently. The Zeitgeist Movement remains as upholders of the central logic that's now unrestricted by Fresco into being fashioned into whatever open source post-scarcity economics works. It's for everyone to put their good ideas into it to make it work.
