Antisthenes

conclusion:

The conflicts today with our fellow human beings are over opposing values and limited access to the necessities of life. If we manage to arrive at a saner future civilization, the conflicts will be against problems common to all humans. In a vibrant and emergent culture, rather than having conflicts between nations, the challenges we will face will be overcoming scarcity, restructuring damaged environments, creating innovative technologies, increasing agricultural yield, improving communications, building communications between nations, sharing technologies, and living a meaningful life.

People would be free to pursue whatever constructive endeavors they chose without economic pressures, restraints, and taxation that are inherent in the monetary system. By constructive endeavors, we mean anything that enhances the lives of the individual and others. With these major alterations, people would eventually live longer more meaningful and healthier lives. The measure of success would be the fulfillment of one's individual pursuits rather than the acquisition of wealth, property, and power.

As we enhance the lives of others, protect our environment, and work toward abundance, all our lives can become richer and more secure. If these values were put into practice, it would enable all of us to achieve a much higher standard of living within a relatively short period of time; a standard of living that would be continuously improved. When education and resources are available to all without a price tag, there will be no limit to
human potential.

Jacque Fresco and Roxanne Meadows, founders of The Venus Project, was featured in the award-winning documentary: "Zeitgeist: Addendum" by Peter Joseph. It's a fascinating film that delineates the real problems—banks, IMF, etc.—of this world. You can watch it free at Google Video or zeitgeistmovie.com
