They are politicians, and only cause further problems.
Problems are not solved by politicians, they are solved by technicians.
Modern technology created by technicians has removed the idea of scarcity, which is the cause for the separation and greed of resources. We have ample power in wind power, solar, aquatic, and geothermal power to sustain the world indefinitely.
If we could only see past this monetary system that has enslaved humanity into working to survive, instead of working to progress.
A resource based system, in which all natural resources are everyone's, and based on the technology we have today, we can all progress tackling the simple problems of "which country is right?" "who's god is right?" and "how can I profit most from this?"...to: "how can we get to that solar system?" "how can we cure cancer?" "how can we improve the human body, and the way we live, and the pleasure we sustain from life?"
Our system is all a facade, and I finally understand what the coming of a new age really brings.
I really can't recommend Zeitgeist II enough.
I don't know where we've been and I've just been there.
