This Jacque Fresco guy is a bigger plague to logic than Kent Hovind. This thread is a mirror image of the free world charter thread. There is no point in using facts to argue with these people. They dont care about facts. They dont care about our inability to build robots to do everything, they dont care about the fact that not everything is able to be done by machines, they dont care there arent enough resources for everyone on earth to live excessively like the west does, they dont care about human nature, they dont care about past similar experiments, they dont care about the fact that 99.99% of people wont work if they dont have to, they dont care that the very premise of their argument is flawed, as money is nothing more than a tool for easier trade.

These people live in a fantasy, and cant be shown how flawed their reasoning is. They are brainwashed into calling us brainwashed. The fact of the matter is, the best course of action is to just ignore their insanity, and continue living a productive life, and allow them to preach to walls and other inanimate objects, so we dont have to waste our precious time trying to help them.

Let's see, if I ran a corporation that manufactured things I'd look for ways to cut costs to make more profit. A country where the government isn't going to sieze control of my plants and offers cheap labor allows those starving people to go to work and feed themselves and what do I get out of the deal, more profit and eventually more consumers for my products which is more profit!

Hmm intressting ill raise you. i would recognize a country that has a desert but not only a desert but a dictator that is generaly disliked. I will start a fear mongering campaign and start lobbying for us to go to war with that country i will make sure i cut my buddies in oil and construction and obviously weapons manufacture.

Time to go to war ill be rich on providing air conditioning and only 2 million brown people dead, Now where do i go next...


And by eliminating money people will not desire oil, right? There will just be no reason to fight over it! You've solved every conflict ever, congratulations. This is the highest level of toolboxing I've ever seen.

Right, because that's what we did in Brazil, South Africa, Mexico, China, India, Malaysia, Phillipines, Thailand, and Turkey. Except, oh wait it's not.

Aye dont care about your opinion thats backed by nothing. Head on the nail buddy.

And by eliminating money people will not desire oil, right? There will just be no reason to fight over it!

The resources are commen heritage to everyone on the planet nobody can own all the oil. And second of why use oil as soon as we dont have profit margins to fill we start switching to substainable clean energy which we have an abundance for.

And according to a clever professor we have alot higher oil reserves that the oil companies are leading us to belive that all depends tho on how fast people will get it. Do your best to be the last one.

1) Buy the food they need (it already exists)
2) In an efficient way (they will buy at market prices)
3) Create a profit incentive for local farmers to grow local food (local will be cheaper)
4) Use profits from local farms to grow the economy (same as EU / USA historically)


1) For what money?
2) Why? They dont have no political power their just a burdon turn a blind eye sch its not real dont look its their fault their lazy.
3)There is an incentive allright TO BURN FOOD TO MAINTAIN MARKET VALUE CALLED ARTIFICIAL SCARCITY. Because dont you know the poor people cant pay half as much for the food as we whites can.
4) Profits? what profits assuming everything you said so far was true they still dont have any profit everyone can grow food and they have no infrastructure. Did you miss the part where they pay 50% of their GDP to the IMF as debt because some dictator wanted an airport?

You are becoming noble yes noble but still naive.


1) Can you not read? I said instead of giving food as charity we give money as charity. THAT money.
2) You don't need political power to buy food. Christ, WTF are you rambling about here?
3) This makes no sense. You can't make more money growing food and burning it than growing food and selling it. It is a mathematical impossibility. If you want me to explain to you the how and why of various government subsidies (including crop destruction) I will gladly explain that to you as well as how it is a non-issue as far as hungry Africans go.
4) Who is this *they* you are talking about? Are you claiming that the entire continent of Africa has zero infrastructure, is ruled by dictators (non-issue as RBE cannot remove them) and is drowning in debt?

Edit: to be clear, most rich world government subsidies drive down the cost of food. They do not increase the price of food through 'artificial scarcity', as DevliCiousVP is suggesting. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agricultural_subsidy

This thread entertains me. So far I have only read reasons why a RBE wouldn't work and none why it should. Just like all the other discussions about it on the interwebs. The world is a horrible place but here is the magical system that will solve it all. Its got wonderfull technology, pretty brochurepictures made by a sagelike man. And somehow by a way I can't explain resources and products are distrubuted and produced by science in a honest and optmal way. By science and ways that I cant explain. But this old man knows how because he is a FUTURIST but he wont divulge how we are supposed to do this because the world is not ready yet for his wisdom. blah blah blah.

Only complaining about the world and the solution is an endless string of buzzwords.

What if you have a good harvest and your neighbours do aswel? that will cause prices to dramaticly inflate as all the peasants try to sell their crops before each other in order to get the best prices. That causes the fat guy in the auction hall to lower prices. way down because remember they have twice as much and fat guy is not capable of moving that amount.

2) No?Who stops people from demanding unreasonable prices? The vultures would be all over their poor aid money.


4) Who is this *they* you are talking about? Are you claiming that the entire continent of Africa has zero infrastructure, is ruled by dictators (non-issue as RBE cannot remove them) and is drowning in debt?

Parts of africa and central/south america.

You think Canada sells oil at the same price as new guine ?

What do oil reserves have to do with anything?

The fighting for oil did we ever enter a resource based economy.

What the hell are you talking about? You accused us of going to war because of some corporate conspiricy to find cheap labor (or oil I suppose) and I just gave you nine countries in which that wasn't the case. In fact, I gave you nine countries in that capitalism is working and working well to bring the people in those countries out of back breaking poverty.

You just said the opposite things... "prices will dramatically inflate" and "to lower prices." So are you complaining that prices will rise or that they will fall? I'm not sure what you are saying so it is hard to respond.



2) No?Who stops people from demanding unreasonable prices? The vultures would be all over their poor aid money.



If one person is charging too much than another will have a profit incentive to undercut him. It's called competition. As you just said, the 'fat guy' in the auction house will drive down prices as more food becomes available. If the government is too corrupt for that to happen then there is nothing any of us can do about it. A RBE won't help either since the corrupt government won't play along. You can either do the best you can or invade with your military.

If you are talking about specific dictatorships I don't see what a RBE can do to resolve that issue. You can't just ask a crazy country like North Korea to play along and adopt your RBE if they don't want to.

If New Guinea exports oil to the world markets, then they will receive the world market price.

The only possible countries you can argue about oil are iraq and possibly libya so 2 possible wars over oil in recent history it isn't strong evidence for your claim that you can lobby for war.

Are you suggesting that every country has fully embraced free market capitalism and by that logic the simple fact that some are poor proves that free market capitalism doesn't work?

The westen world is shifting first we have the highest access to informaton the most opportunity as people become more general versed in subjects more educated they start clamouring. This is already happenening world wide in the western world we dont accept going backwards like we used to we dont accept depressions anymore.

There will be opposition from the ruling class yes and as minority slowly starts turning into a majority things can go bad depending on what the opposition is. If they killed a few protesters in OWS the whole nation would flare up like kindling. The only way to stop our switch from a monetary system to a RBE is to disable the free forms of communication such as the internet.

Heavy legislature or temporary shuting down the internet nationwide for "security" reasons is the most efficient way to do things. If i was a oligarch-banker i would be doing everything in my power to get censor up on the internet ASAP.

If you are talking about specific dictatorships I don't see what a RBE can do to resolve that issue. You can't just ask a crazy country like North Korea to play along and adopt your RBE if they don't want to.

You speak to the people directly ignoring the goverments and you met force with force without public support they are useless.

Depends on the conditionality they received on the loan to develop their infrastructure, Hey you got oil but you cant mine it without these and dont even try without this loan. Loan is to big cant repay refinance demand lower oil prices as a condionality that is one of the reason US got among the cheapest oil.

Can someone translate this into English?

Go back and see what i qouted and why or ignore.

Are you suggesting that every country has fully embraced free market capitalism and by that logic the simple fact that some are poor proves that free market capitalism doesn't work?

It is already known that it dont work it was recently proven by the lack of legislature that led to the collapse and that the American people had to buy for wall streets fun time. To big to fail ? my ass!

One that doesnt prove anything, two even if it did it would prove debt funded capitalism doesn't work. On your freedom thing the whole point about the exploited countries is they are not free market capitalist countries and therefore poorer. But in general i just think you are insane.

So were gallelio for saying the world was round, The wright brothers for saying they could fly. The british academy laughed out almost all of their revoultionary thinkers. Ignaz Semmelweis got placed in a mental hospital because he made the connection between handling dead bodies and deliving children causing infant moratlity rates.

When you discover im genius remember these arent things i came up with im just repeating what brighter scientist and enginners have discovered.

And you base this on the fact that people are not willing to give up their current way of life? Guess what the RBE requires?

Logic just flies over your head, doesn't it? I can't for the life of me understand how you can claim that this system is perfect, and based on the scientific method, while showing such a complete lack of logical thinking. In case you don't see the problem; The scientific method requiers you to use logic.

In any case, please understand that noone's saying capitalism is perfect. They're saying it's proven to work, has worked, and is still working. The problems you've identified, such as depressions, have been big issues since before world war one and there is yet to be a conclusive answer on how best to tackle them. That doesn't mean that there isn't an acceptable way, or that it is not the most optimal system available. Again, logic, not your strong suit, I know. The burden of proof is still on you to prove that your alternative system actually could work. You've addressed none of the flaws pointed out to you, nor provided any scientificly valid model for how it should operate (kind of important if you want to claim to be operating under the scientific method ). The reality is that what we have now, although not perfect, is better than anything we've had before. Not only that, but what you're advocating is a form of communism, which we've also seen historically takes a very different form when implemented in reality.
