This guy is a megalomaniac. Most all his interesting ideas were 'taken' from the Technocracy Study Course, much like Bucky Fuller, Tainter and others.
While he talks about getting rid of money, etc. his idea of changing society is thru social engineering, as opposed to the proposal of Techinc which is to allow people freedom without the constraint of creating societal moralistic norms, beyond prevention of violence, or punishment of that.
Also his basic idea of a Globalized, One World, Interconnected society, with sharing of resources will not work. If the present pop. of 6 million tries to do that, the resource base of the world will be destroyed. That resource base is the North American land area.
Since the Venus Project is a Price System construct, though they claim otherwise, I can not see how their proposals will do anything other than doom the world. It is 'feel good' in nature, what they are saying, but does not add up.
I view it as another group that has exploited the creative ideas of the Technical Alliance, and turned them into a personality cult.
Over 6 billion that is.
