very realistic,what a briliant man the only thing i worry about is that Fresco said in 1974(interview larry king) mankind have about 25 years to make this happen because they fuck up the nature and need 10 years to build a great part of the venus project did they already start to build a model?

Fresco has been working on sustainable cities for years now. The issue is not whether we have the technology and make something like this work, but rather, the issue is that the people have to want to move into this direction. That's why it's important that we spread this information as much as we can. I happen to be a member of the Zeitgeist movement and I'm trying to play my part. We have to start taking personal responsibility any way we can.

@chadinterrupted I appreciate your enthusiasm but money is the primary way of transferring goods and services, a store of wealth if you will. We would need a large number of special robots to do all he advocates and we are a long way from that. Jacque is a wonderful idea man but Utopian ideas always sound wonderful until they are tried. Where is his detailed plan of how all these robots get built? When good are free, how do you value a persons work? Even so, I like his ideas.

@Photog60 Most of the technology Jacque talks about exist. If you read any of his books "looking forward" and the best that money can't buy" he goes into detail about many of the questions you bring up and does so very easily. And here's another website that services as showing the public the current technological advancements of the present day "zeitnews.org".

I love the RBE idea, but I am unsure of how to proceed. I have a small company (of one), and the point of it is to provide equipment to expand people's independence in a green & responsible manner. I feel like I'm in the right concern, but am inexorably tied to the financial system. How do I proceed? I could expand my rentals of solar equipment to reduce the need for ownership, but that doesn't solve all the issues.

I'd love to hear the transition plan from where we are to where we need to be.

@Photog60 money is a form of CONTROL we don't need robots to be united and work and share everything money was designed by the corrupt few to control us and divide us (poor vs rich) gold is a shiney rock? how do you put worth on it its a joke and 'they' are laughing why don't we just trade pencils i'll pay you 400 pencils a week to work for me what a joke

Let me add another comment about opinions. Even experts have different opinions about problems. Look at economists opinion of how to handle our economic problems. Brainstorming is the act of giving your opinion of how to solve a problem when we don't know the answer. The real task is having people with knowledge give opinions and somehow filtering them to actionable items. Watch FOX new talk shows for examples of useless opinions. But then, bullsh*t brings ratings.
