OK, by far the most badass way to talk about an RBE I ever came up with – and I did it on the fly.
I must share.
Tonight everyone going out to the bars was dressed up for Halloween.
I was at the bus stop and I asked a group of 7 people waiting there with me why everyone was dressed up in costumes and they said it was for Halloween of course.
I replied with, “Hallo what??”
They repeated it with a weird expression on their face.
Then I responded with, “Ohhh yes, now that I recall I do remember studying that. I forgot we used to do that. We don’t celebrate that anymore where I come from.”
And they looked at me weird and responded with “Wait, where you from?”
And I said, “Nahhh, you wouldn’t believe me if i told you.”
Then I noticed one of them - an old women, had a bag of groceries and I asked her: “Did you have to pay for that food?”
She looked at me like I was crazy and replied with, “Young man, I wish I had an option. Now, you must be from another planet?”
And I replied with, “ No Mam, I’m from earth, a future earth - but a near future, 2025, when we no longer ask, “How much will it cost to feed, house and clothe every human on earth?”, but rather we ask, “Do we have the resources and technological capacity to take care of all humanity? And we do in the future.”
Now of course they did not believe me but one guy jokingly said, “That must be nice, wish we could live in a free world. Take me to the future. I hate being a slave to da dollar.”
And I replied with, “ Wait what year is it again? 2011 right? Well, ya know, ya’ll humans do have the resources and technological capacity to make this future happen tomorrow. The future can come quicker you know, but that’s up to you all.”
I went on to tell them that more and more people would begin gathering in the streets as months and years pass. And how they all soon will realize that something is dreadfully wrong with society an that no matter who they elect - the problems will continue to grow and how they too - eventually - will head to the protests and listen with desperation. I went on to say that people will begin talking about an idea called a Resource Based Economy and that society will begin understand the potentials of this economy - this tomorrow - and they will demand it as if their lives depend on it because their lives will depend on it.
6 of us happened to be taking the same bus. I was the last to board the bus and walked right past the bus driver without paying the $1.10 and of course she reacted with basically: “what the hell are you doin’ walking on my bus without paying???” And i said “Oh yeah, i forgot, you all still use money…here you go.”
Now, the other 5 started laughing and telling everyone else on the bus how i told them I’m from the future where everything is free.
I started talking to a young mom next to me and she was feelin’ the future I was tellin’ her about - where i was from - and basically admitted money is the root cause to all her problems and how’s she’s barley keeping afloat with 3 kids.
Before i got off the bus i made sure to write The Zeitgeist Movement and The Venus project on a piece of paper and put it in my wallet after I removed my license and “important” cards, and when I got to my stop i tossed my wallet with about $50 on her lap and said “take it, i’m going back to the future and I wont need it anymore.” And I told her the piece of paper with the TZM and TVP is far more valuable than the money, and if i stunned her tonight, that the potentials of tomorrow will stun her far more.
Real story. i wish I could have recorded it all.
Much, much love and respect to all you visionaries,
We’re all tired of this dumbmoney dumbshit.
Lets all make this RBE happen before 2020…
We got to…for countless many, it literally is life or death.
