This video is a ...
This video is a good idea but is preaching to the converted (or the haters) because most of the people would not stand this kind of mechanical voice through a whole video unless they know what they're going to see, I think.

so how do U feed ...
so how do U feed U'rself while having all this 'fun' w/ others? What do U do to justify U'r existence. U have no idea what money is... its simply a medium of exchange... ITS FIAT CURRENCY THAT IS THE PROBLEM. U people have no fucking idea of what the hell U R talking about... U just want stuff for free - from those that work, where U don't want to.

"Every human being ...
"Every human being would be taken care of." That sounds really scary. It's fine if you're old and needy, not when you're young and healthy. Freedom Zeitgeist style means exactly the opposite, just like in "1984".

Im a biug supporter of TZM and TVP, but this presentation is not really good, took me 30seconds than i couldnt take it anymore, sound and video doesnt play well together, i dont know if this helps our cause.

Listen, I'm a ...
Listen, I'm a member of TZM but this kind of bad presentation I think actually works against our goals. We need intelligent people to spread the word and such a person will not be convinced by such a poorly made argument.

Thats what i ...
Thats what i genuinly call a tear jerker. Surely im not the only 1! I felt like that when i first heard about TVP through the zeitgeist films. I'm not a very emotional person. I even feel awkward telling someone i love them, even my mum. Although i do. TVP jt touches a nerve. Im open to the idea that i could of bought in2 something stupid by being a supporter but i'm going to go with what im calling my "gut feeling" and continue to support TVP, by at the very least talking to others.Thumbs up

@Peterwhitlock, STFU man youre very delusional, an obvious and stupid troll. Wake the fuck up seriously.

@cyphi1, You didn't ...
@cyphi1, You didn't blow your head off i am impressed haha. Im glad you didn't say an RBE isn't possible at all like most irrational minded people, therefore my respect for you has quadrupled. I was going to discuss a few other things with you but i seem to have forgotten at this time and im sorry.
cyphi1 on 2011-10-26
I agree that ...
I agree that efficient use of resources could hypothetically allow for a world with many times the current human population. But a RBE isn't a realistic option at this moment in time given the immature spiritual state of man. Corruption, thievery and exploitation are the zeitgeists which enslave humanity. If this system was implemented and successful, war would be waged against its promoters. Humans are driven by ego. Since birth we have been conditioned to perceive inequality.
pommyrooter on 2011-10-25
@cyphi1, You said ...
@cyphi1, You said that serious overpopulation would be a serious problem because of all the sexy time. I think i can counter with a proper management of the carrying capacity via the most efficient means of production when it comes to food water shelter etc, that more than double our current population can be catered for with abundance. Meaning the population size wouldn't matter for a very large period of time. By the time of when over population does become a problem a solution can be found

express yourself my friend.

@cyphi1, I know you ...
@cyphi1, I know you wrote this a long time ago but if youre willing i would like to, in a mature manner, discuss a few details with you.

@Peterwhitlock, ;) Good job mate making yourself look like an ass, you've excelled yourself this time.

@angelenetorres, We have a lot of freedom in this society because we take from another.

im not denying ...
im not denying genetics im denying the mith that genetics are responsible for shaping our behavior the Idea that *Its genetic* is a very dangerous assumtion its a cop out so that there is no need to use resources or to change the bad things in society that make people who they are its all about enviroment please study this before you create more damage
ChipArgyle on 2011-10-15
There is no human ...
There is no human nature? You're denying something called genetics. Or you're simply goofing around with semantics. Either way, you're denying what we are. Studies have repeatedly shown that we're about 80% nature, 20% nurture (environment). Where other than Jacque Franco's mouth did you come up with your idea?
HernandeztheHero on 2011-10-14
This is not Utopian ...
This is not Utopian the Venus Project is a progresive society that changes based on the nesds of the people and the progress of technology and knowledge not an established one youre society IS the Utopia. There is NO human nature there is human BEHAVIOR these things are learned nor is it genetic just in case youre goin there. Its The enviroment shapes us makes us who we are
HernandeztheHero on 2011-10-14
there is no human ...
there is no human nature there is human behavior these things are learned there is no natural law that makes money exist

you cant get rid of money, money is not what people want, its the oppurtunities that come with money, if you have a lot of money you can afford big houses, nice cars, & delicious food. & people work hard for that money (most of the time). they even everything out in a communist society, communisum was a good idea because people wont be homeless or starve but a bad one because people wouldnt be able to move up either. in this society we have A LOT of freedom.

money is not the ...
money is not the root of evil. Greed and other human emotions are, but you can't get rid of them, or you would be taking away a part of humanity.
gulbirk on 2011-09-21

I think we might need to keep money as a regulator. Or else we will have to have billions if people working within administration to calculate how much resources can be spent.

This is the mental ...
This is the mental exercise i usually do: Think about an alien civilization, in some distant galaxy. They started 10k years before us, so today it's 10k years ahead of us. Do you think what they have is closer to what we have today, or do they live in a system closer to the Resource based economic model?? I'll let you be the judge of that!
