I'd like more cushions spread about the place and greater access to soft furnishings for the greater mass of humanity. Oh yeah I'd also like to see a global moratorium on the widespread use of marzipan and Latin American rhythms in popular music. (I don't mean there's marzipan and Latin rhythms together in popular music, I mean separately. Anyone who mixes marzipan and Latin rhythms(Yes I'm talking to you Ricky Martin!) deserves to be taken away to a secret prison somewhere in the Caribbean and forced to do naked gymnastics for the glory of an undisclosed Reich.)

I would make a world where every human being treats every other human being with a deep abiding respect and consideration for their humanity. It would fix almost all the problems in one shot.

Eliminate money. It creates competition and ultimately scarcity. It's an outdated system. We have technology.

In a monetary system, we are motivated by fear [of not having money]. In a resource-based system, nature's way, we are motivated by interest.

If you think just because we got rid of money, everyone would become unmotivated, that is a misconception, and this is made clear when observing children. When you ask a kid what they want to become when they grow up, they'll almost always tell you. Why don't we nurture this interest, for people are naturally motivated by interest?

People aren't starving because there's not enough food in the world. They're starving because we put a price on food, and no one is willing to pay for it.

Can our world go on without money? It is indeed better off without it. Scientists will no longer be attached to corporate or political agenda, and actually use their knowledge to create real sustainability. We would eventually eliminate crime because crimes are almost always related to money. Those who are mentally ill can receive professional treatment. We'll still have doctors because doctors become doctors to save lives, not make money. And those who did become doctors to get rich will quit leaving us will doctors who are motivated for the right reason.

Agriculture, industry, and infrastructure can become fully automated requiring no one to do work they don't want to do. We let technology take over. After all, do we not live in a world of abundance?

Perhaps there is some value in introducing these discussions to philosophical, spiritual and religious groups at BC. Just in case that is the case here's the main link to all the religious discussion groups www.blogcatalog.com/groups/tag/religion

Licensing.
For parents, webdesigners and making coffee.

REASON: I'm sick of seeing people in shopping malls who can't raise their kids; I'm sick of seeing poorly built websites passed of as professional; I'm sick of drinking bad coffee!
