1
00:00:00,986 --> 00:00:03,726
In the world today we have enough resources

2
00:00:03,980 --> 00:00:06,586
to solve most human problems.

3
00:00:07,146 --> 00:00:09,906
We can build cities, hospitals, all over the world

4
00:00:10,133 --> 00:00:11,670
if we use resources!

5
00:00:11,973 --> 00:00:14,333
But if you conscripted all the money in the world,

6
00:00:14,613 --> 00:00:16,173
there's not enough money

7
00:00:16,386 --> 00:00:19,426
to build hospitals and housing all over the world

8
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:23,406
and finance the education of
students who want to go to college.

9
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:25,486
But we do have enough teachers and enough

10
00:00:25,913 --> 00:00:27,893
buildings we can use for universities.

11
00:00:28,070 --> 00:00:32,120
We have the resources;
money is an interference,

12
00:00:32,420 --> 00:00:36,593
because it limits our ability
and it limits our dreams.

13
00:00:36,906 --> 00:00:40,770
The average person doesn't think
of going on a world cruise

14
00:00:40,953 --> 00:00:43,513
because it's outside of their purchasing power.

15
00:00:43,900 --> 00:00:46,053
So, we dare not dream.

16
00:00:46,426 --> 00:00:50,000
But once people are free of hunger, money,

17
00:00:50,593 --> 00:00:54,860
problems paying rent,
keeping a job to support their family,

18
00:00:55,190 --> 00:00:57,586
for the first time they can now dream

19
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:00,660
and think of better worlds and different things.

20
00:01:01,826 --> 00:01:05,320
The only reason we only have one Edison
and one Madame Curie

21
00:01:05,633 --> 00:01:08,280
and one Louis Pasteur
and one Michelangelo

22
00:01:08,526 --> 00:01:11,113
is because kids are not given the opportunity!

23
00:01:11,613 --> 00:01:14,966
Like in America it was possible, at a time,

24
00:01:15,166 --> 00:01:17,026
to buy a car for five dollars.

25
00:01:17,239 --> 00:01:20,909
I bought a car for eight bucks,
so we could take it apart in our garage.

26
00:01:21,146 --> 00:01:25,133
In Europe at that time, no kid
could make a radio or buy a car.

27
00:01:25,346 --> 00:01:28,520
So Americans did lead for a while in invention

28
00:01:28,740 --> 00:01:30,520
because they had the facilities!

29
00:01:30,813 --> 00:01:32,560
There were an abundance of things!

30
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,186
So if you deprive people of things -

31
00:01:35,426 --> 00:01:37,853
like they couldn't teach the slaves how to read,

32
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,686
because if they learned how to read

33
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,333
they'd begin to think about things,
and they'd be hard to manage.

34
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:48,293
So, we did that for intentioned purposes.

35
00:01:48,613 --> 00:01:51,910
So that's why our schools
don't teach kids how to think!

36
00:01:52,110 --> 00:01:53,700
First of all they don't know how to.

37
00:01:54,900 --> 00:01:58,213
And if they knew how to,
you couldn't get them to join the army

38
00:01:58,860 --> 00:02:01,280
and you couldn't get them to
fall in line with the system!

39
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:03,913
There'd be so many different political parties

40
00:02:04,213 --> 00:02:07,473
that you couldn't get anybody
to vote any one direction!

41
00:02:07,730 --> 00:02:09,246
...in a real democracy,

42
00:02:09,850 --> 00:02:11,286
which we've never had.

43
00:02:11,589 --> 00:02:16,579
