(The Problem) It is the monetary economic system itself that is the root cause of these problems. Greed, corruption, and war are inevitable byproducts of the monetary system. We maintain an obsolete economic system that has been handed down to us from centuries ago that has never been just or equitable, nor can it be. The main aim of the monetary system is wealth, property, and power. This results in everyone being out for themselves.
(The Awareness) The wealthy buy and control the politicians, courts, judges, media, police, entertainment, and even the universities. They set the agenda and the laws for their own advantage. It is the taxpayers who pay the salaries of the police while they work for the wealthy (who pay very little taxes) to violently put down peaceful protestors who threaten the status quo.
(The Solution) A total redesign of society where human rights are not merely paper proclamations but a way of life. A society can be designed where war and want are distant memories. All people need clean air, water, food, a relevant education, and the necessities of life. This is now possible if we update our social systems as we have updated our technologies. We are not separate from nature and must live within the carrying capacity of our planet’s resources. This can be accomplished by applying the methods of science to the way we live with the main aim being the wellbeing of all the world’s people and the protection of the environment.
I understand your frustration. Only someone misinformed would categorize a system that promotes fairness and equality of all a cult. You must first identify the problem become aware and then seek the solution. Patching up a dam that needs to be re-engineered is not the solution.
the venus project is a cult, a dangerous threat to society, a problem i have to solve, and has some neat ideas i would love to promote were it not for the assorted fatal errors. they don't have solutions, they have ideology. I would love to apply the methods of science to the problems. venus project has never done this, is patently incapable and incompetent to do it, and can not manage to form think tanks or run a collaborative process for being a cult.
