A New Vision

I've taken to putting more videos on this blog. One of the reasons I did that is because it seems that some people seem to identify and comprehend things in that form better than the written concepts and ideas.  I fear I have so many videos on here now that it may be making it hard for those with older or less memory powerful computers to load the page.  So for a while anyway I will provide links to video. Should you become disgusted or bored with television and be so inclined to spend some time watching something different or a little more food for thought please check them out.

After a campaign of jobs, jobs, jobs from both parties we've seen action on nothing of the kind. Lots of other stuff but no move towards jobs.
Our current debate is about the debt.  That is a discussion for another day.  Today I'd like to focus on creating jobs.
The large companies are making record profits and sitting on mountains of cash. They lack no money for hiring or investment. They are sitting on it because of lack of demand  and the profits new technology brings.   Why is there a lack of demand? Many are unemployed, underemployed and working for less and less money.  That might be a major factor? So what do we do?


My proposition  here is that we are a nation with nothing to do. We are like the teenager on summer vacation.  Let me explain.
In the beginning we settled the West. We built a railroad from coast to coast. Something that benefited all of us and gave us a sense of pride as a people.  Yes, there were some ugly things that went along with getting there but that again is another discussion.
We later built an interstate highway system that is still benefiting us to this day.
We went to the moon and back and in the process developed new products and technologies that changed the world.
What are we doing now? Fighting evil so we don't all die? That is the only one I can come up with. One based in fear. We are all just trying to survive.
Let me proffer the idea that what we need is a change of perspective, a new vision. We need a national effort that benefits all of we the people similar to the ones above. I'm not insisting that this be a government effort.  I think the government can spur it on, help with organization etc but we should utilize all the resources of our nation.  This could bring jobs, a new optimism and benefits to our nation as a whole.  Just what might that be?

I asked my radio listeners that and left it there. As far as I am concerned it's the purpose of the effort and not the specific effort it's self that is important. Hell, you may come up with a wonderful Idea that I hadn't considered.

The likely possibility is that many people who took the time to think about it would come up with the same answer. For that reason and because you are my dear friends and associates I will continue.
Let's get as close to free energy as we can.  The technology to do it is advanced and improving exponentially every year.  A push would put us over the top.
Apply the technology to businesses and houses, then to cars.
Next a push for vertical farming. Allowing people to have their own clean organic food.
One of the beautiful things about this vision is that it leaves that money spent on energy and much of our food free to be spent on something else. It also makes each home more self sufficient and self sustainable and far less dependent on the system. Isn't that the rugged individualism that the right always dreams of? It's this lefties dream too.
Now there will be those that worry about all the jobs lost in the energy field.
There is no one better positioned on the planet to do this and financially benefit from it than our current energy companies. If they want to fossilize their thinking then I have the same sympathy I have for the carriage, stagecoach and buggywhip makers.  They have a prime opportunity but if they want me to wait til they get good and ready they have another think coming.


If you don't like this vision then come up with one of your own. As I said, it's the conscious intent that counts.  I'm tired of a nation of people living in a milieu of fear. It's time to evolve.


Garbage Warrior- A pioneer in self sustainability.

The Race To Free Energy-Tesla got it all started.

Our Technical Reality- It's a slow moving film but includes some great technology. Even this is somewhat dated today.

Farms of the future- How about an appropriately sized one of these in your back yard!

One last note. If you are here to debate and flow negativity please find other masterdebaters to masterdbate with.  Please get your self gratification somewhere else.
If you are here to improve and expand on ideas, if you are a seeker, welcome home, let's do it together combining our individual skills and talents to build something better for all of us.

Always food for thought and new stuff being added all the time to my Youtube channel. Take a look . Stirring the mental processes is fun and rewarding!

Good to see you are still around Larry. I like this idea. I hope though that we will decide to use our technology for good instead of just to make more weapons. We have so much that could be available if we would just use it. We could have things in abundance, enough for everybody.
