1 00:00:02,315 --> 00:00:04,324 People are not reasonable, 2 00:00:04,399 --> 00:00:08,853 you have to manipulate the variables to get them to understand The Venus Project. 3 00:00:08,955 --> 00:00:11,215 But then get them to understand 4 00:00:11,342 --> 00:00:14,651 that The Venus Project doesn't solve all problems. 5 00:00:14,777 --> 00:00:17,950 It's just hell of a lot better than what we've got. 6 00:00:18,053 --> 00:00:19,982 That's all you got to understand. 7 00:00:20,080 --> 00:00:23,734 We don't seek perfection or utopia or anything like that. 8 00:00:23,858 --> 00:00:27,091 We just seek... we know the world could be far better, 9 00:00:27,228 --> 00:00:30,236 that there is no need for most crimes. 10 00:00:30,366 --> 00:00:35,099 And it's cheaper, by the way, to make things available to people than put them in jail. 11 00:00:35,243 --> 00:00:39,712 It costs $50,000 a year to keep a kid in jail. 12 00:00:39,824 --> 00:00:43,333 How stupid can you be? $75,000 for an adult 13 00:00:43,552 --> 00:00:46,845 and they don't come out any better, I think you know that. 14 00:00:47,016 --> 00:00:50,520 So this way, if you took the price of 10 kids in jail, 15 00:00:50,646 --> 00:00:53,622 we can make everything available to people: art materials, 16 00:00:53,732 --> 00:00:56,484 musical [instruments], violins, give it to them! 17 00:00:56,614 --> 00:01:00,904 It is cheaper than putting them in jail. Make things available to people. 18 00:01:01,050 --> 00:01:05,245 And your kids in the distant future will say to you (if you're still around): 19 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:08,799 "Couldn't you see that? Wasn't that obvious?" 20 00:01:08,939 --> 00:01:11,299 You'll say, "No! We were steeped in it!" 21 00:01:11,419 --> 00:01:15,751 When you brought up in a bucket of shit up to here, you know of no other world. 22 00:01:15,882 --> 00:01:19,204 It's just that you don't duck much, that is all. 23 00:01:19,351 --> 00:01:23,785 But the world you live in is so loused up, and the people you talk to... 24 00:01:23,893 --> 00:01:28,572 That is why I know if I get on television I can turn millions of people around, 25 00:01:28,669 --> 00:01:31,335 because I don't come at them [you] offensively. 26 00:01:31,470 --> 00:01:33,659 And I know they are looking for answers. 27 00:01:33,739 --> 00:01:37,358 But they don't know an answer if they heard it today, so... 28 00:01:37,848 --> 00:01:40,777 You guys have to do some work when you leave here. 29 00:01:41,081 --> 00:01:45,176 That why I'm trying to compress it all I can, 30 00:01:45,479 --> 00:01:50,772 and give you all I can within the time we're together.
