if someone could come up with a way to harvest the energy in humans... we know E=MC^2, and we could, instead of lethal injection, maybe try to extract some energy from the death row prisoners, or people who are terminally ill??

I don't have a solution right now and honestly my research interests aren't in that field (i.e. I think it's boring).  There are smart people working on it now who find it much less boring than I do and I leave it to them to fix it.


I am taking in to account this theory because it is a scientifically based society, which is what we need. (again theories can be changed, are open to the best possible solution)
I see a couple problems, yes. But that's why it's only a theory and not a proposition. It will take time to get something perfect.
But as of now, I think this would be better then our society.

Sounds like the cult church of scientology to me.

Hamster wheels. Big hamster wheels. And lots of caffeine.

Ok, then how would -you- solve the problem put forward?
While keeping proper wealth distribution?
In a way that our government could transition?
With oil running low too, how do you suppose to fix that?
All I see is you guys arguing about the idea I put forward, with no contribution to the problems.


"proper wealth distribution"

hmmm...i don't agree that this is a goal ...nor well defined.

ok i have an idea.

Yes the Federal Reserve needs to go down. It's an entity reminiscent of the worst kind of enslavement you can entail to an economy.

There should be no central banking system. As a matter of fact...there should be multiple currencies even...allowed to compete in value within the system.

A free market, if properly sustained...and if lobbying could be inhibited or prevented altogether (corporate marriage with the government has to go)...the system will restore itself to a level previously unseen by mankind.
I'm not sure a democratic form of government can provide for this though (hint). We need to establish ourselves as a highly centralized republic with the centralization carefully defined and managed by "specialized" people.


"oil running low" though is not a problem. If anything the major problem deals with CO2 emissions and the effects of climate change on the economy.

Lol? You're ignoring my comment and relating it to scientology?

Maybe not well defined, but certainly something that should be at least partially recognized.
Most of the world is starving, while at the same time people who do almost nothing are spending MILLIONS on cars and extra houses and such.
Why should this not be a goal? To at least make it so people don't have to starve, (though they're doing the manual work)

I like this, but post the specifics before being bashed by njaguar

I believe that people should be treated equally in regards to the law. But they should not be MADE equal by mandate of the law.

There is a world's of difference between these two ideologies.

Making everyone equal will destroy humanity and retard its growth indefinitely (aka total socialism)

I'm not implying they should be treated equally, but should have at least food, water and shelter.
