Jacque Fresco was born on March 16, 1916, making him a staggering 97. For 75 years he's worked on 'the Venus Project' and tried to convince people that a resource based economy is the answer. I wholeheartedly think that this man is a complete genius and I follow his life lessons and his work with serious dedication. He's old enough to have met Albert Einstein, which he has, and asked him his opinion on God. He answered, 'Which one?' If you have about an hour, check on the video. It's about Jacque and his life, interviewed by two guys. The video explains more or less everything he has ever done in short and explains social culture in quite a detailed setting. Really, really opens your eyes. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacque_Frescowww.youtube.com/watch?v=42RYbA_3ImU

He has a really interesting point of view, that i for the most part agree with. Also he doesn't look like man of 96 years in the video

He made me view life a lot differently but the sad thing is that, although not the first, won't live to see us even realise his dream. What an impressive mind.

Many great minds influence us all. It's a shame when they must leave.

Except Adolf Hitler. He was smart enough to overtake Germany...

I 100% agree. An economy based on supporting the people, and giving them the good they need, seems more useful than an economy based on... What is money made of again? Like paper or plastic? Two of the cheapest products there are.

The sad thing is that he's far ahead of his times. So advanced but will never see his dream come to life. Sad thought about an amazing guy

It's possible right now that's what annoys me. If he wanted volunteers I'd be happy there in a flash :')
