The Venus project is FUCKING LAME AS SHIT!
In 100 years, it may be possible, but society has to change too dramatically, first.
It's beyond stupid, stupidly utopian, and ultimately STUPID!
The entire problem with the Venus project is that it takes everyone to agree to do without money, first. If people hold onto their old desires, nothing will change toward a society like the Venus project supports.
I prefer ideas that do not require the whole human race to agree, first.
Example: I would like to manufacture a new toy for kids. I need materials and supplies. In order for me to get them, some business or entity must already exist, willing to give it to me for free, before I can build my new toy for production. That happens regardless of whether or not I want to create it and make it and give it away for free. I need the suppliers to have the same idea as me, first. If they do not, and we cannot force people to change, then we have to wait for everyone to be on board first, before it can take off as an idea. Otherwise, it's impossible, and therefore STUPID!
