Pacifica is an Idea... but i need full cooperation... Pacifica is an area where everyone can live... where you gain points through work, and good deeds... and those points allow you to live... and points can only be given out by the government... and has to be given out if there is proof of the deeds done by people... Pacifica can be realized if people will come together... and pool every single last penny... and i can give it to you... every single last one of you can be the labor force necessary to build the floating city on the ocean that i have dreamed of for the past 3 years... and you can do what you want to do... so long as you do it... no more drugs... everyone will be sent through rehab... everyone will be sent into a cleaning station before entering the City... i can show you the New World... Natural Renewable Energy supplied from a belt of solar panels across the pacific... and the main city that deals with supplying every single last person with the right to live... and pursue their passion... like how business has changed the schools to where the band programs are dying... and how the Physical Education is dying... pretty soon... everyone's going to be lawyers... no more farmers... no more living life to the fullest... i can help you realize true happiness... I've felt adversity... and i know what it's like to suffer... i know loss... and i know love... and i love Humanity... show me that you can put your trust in yourselves... and in me... i shall provide the idea... and you shall build it for me... which will take away everything from the U.S. and put it into a New Country's funds... and with this... i ask you... is it okay to halt Human progress in order for greed? People who want to be Scientists can become scientists... and if they don't want to be anymore... they can learn very easily to be something like a farmer... it doesn't matter anymore... i can show you a Eutopia where everyone doesn't have to kill their neighbor for their own need.
Read a sci fi book where a rich guy funded a colony on a moon of saturn and took a bunch of scientists to live in a place where research was no longer controlled by corporations with an eye to profitability. Nice thought isnt it?
yeah... see... that's my reality... i wish that a lot of other people would see that... no more corruption on human progress and understanding... we must start living for each other individual on this entire planet... once we stop fighting for each other... like in the 2012 movie... even though it kinda brings down Ethos... is when we lose sight of our own humanity... think about it
Too few people do the right thing simply because it is the right thing to do. It requires a well defined moral code and a strong sense of responsibility, not just for action that the benefits the individual, but also the society, but cooperation is typically just an extension of self preservation. I would love to hear from people who experienced life in a commune: what worked, and what didnt.
we should set up communes... all around the U.S. where we all pooled together our money... and worked... grew our own food... and made our own technology... freedom... is when you don't have to deal with the pressures of everything else around you
I seriously think, though, that there is a limit to the size of a successful social unit. A point where the group becomes too big to succeed, or to be self sustaining. Plus, what do you do with those who cant fit that lifestyle? How do address physiological problems with brain function that cause people to lack self control through no fault of their own? In a way, you end up with a more elitist and regulated population....
you're right, there are things that won't allow people to really adapt, and that's when you not adapt the people, but rather adapt the society without completely changing it, change is a funny word, you have to remember this, all of the world has seen horrors, if i can get a labor force of enough people, i can create a nation that could rival a nation of super soldiers as the citizens... hopefully most people can see past their pride, and their greed, to see that the world isn't too small, and rather see that the entire universe is larger than the mind can even conceive.
our entire civilization would profit from it... not just one person...
what most of you don't realize is that every single last one of you can take the power of a lot... and become truly perfect... perfection is when the human race can realize it's true potential... not this corrupt thing that's going on right now...
