00:00:06,700 --> 00:00:09,000
My name is Jacque Fresco.

2
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:16,000
I'm project director of The Venus Project, in Venus, Florida.

3
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:22,300
Politics was good, a hundred years ago.

4
00:00:22,500 --> 00:00:28,000
Today, politicians have no ability to solve any problems

5
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:30,600
because they're not students of behavior,

6
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:34,200
they're not students of agriculture, oceanography,

7
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:37,900
they know nothing about the factors that operate the world.

8
00:00:38,100 --> 00:00:42,600
So, they say things that people like to hear,

9
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:44,800
and that gets them elected.

10
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:50,000
Now scientists, on the other hand, are not concerned with public approval.

11
00:00:50,300 --> 00:00:55,000
What they do, even if everybody on Earth believed the Earth was flat,

12
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:59,200
they would say, "You're wrong. This is the evidence we have

13
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:02,000
to support the fact that the Earth is round."

14
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:06,700
But they don't say, "It's a little round and a little flat."

15
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,600
That's politicians.

16
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,000
