Pretty much. But I don't get why people brush off futurists as some kind of silly irrelevant unrealistic sci fi lunies. The fact is that all futurists think with the good of the future in mind, What the hell is wrong with that? Keep in mind, the maglev trains in china came out of futuristic ideas. It's money that holds the ideas back.







We all know that each of our end is near; the question is do we accept the end of our living existence, or do we accept our existence as dead men...

Well it's nothing wrong whit futurism nor futurists but as the name implies its the FUTURE the future is shaped by our current actions . Secondly an immediate system must be proposed if the current system continues a future will not even exist . We talking about the future but if the current system is allowed to live there will be no future . Thirdly a post scarcity world can't be achieved within the current system the dream envisioned by the Venus project will ultimately come by evolution from any anarchist collectivist society . Only over time, as productivity increases and the sense of community becomes stronger, money will disappear and the vision of the Venus project will be achieved .
