How is his concept "new" exactly? People are too greedy for this to ever work unless they are tightly controlled somehow....which goes against what the idea is about. You can't have anarchy and equality, unless you have some sort of clone race of humans who all have equal desires, no more or no less then others around him/her. Needs are different...and what is the difference? Food, air, that's it? I can personally say I "need" music, and I dont' think I have been conditioned that way. No money system, all get equal resources and are expected to do equal work? How can you "police" that with no police? Brainwashing kids to think they MUST do it? Even brainwashed nazis, scientologist, devoted religious followers, etc etc, have the dissenters who go against the grain. How can the Venusians deal those individuals? anyway, etc etc etc,.... all he is doing is grinding his axe with religion, politics, world government, etc same old song.

Upon the proposal to get rid of the money system, the average people from nowadays would ask: "and how do we finance this?" The basic rule i have learned is: people dont want change. Or rather, they want the changes to TAKE PLACE but they arent going to be involved in the process. They want somebody to have the might to rule over them, covering their particular interests, without them having to change anything in THEIR lives. Not going to say too much, but my claim is, people reflect to their circumstances as nature given. This system simply does not work for the vast majority of people on earth. One doesnt have to be Einstein to see this. It is not a lack of goodwill, or too much greediness. It is like trying to work with a machine that has failures. The failures are a part of the machine, but not a part of you. Difference to the real world is, you have to adapt to the world in order to survive, cover basic needs. Need to get money to get food, need to work to get money etc etc the whole circle of average normal everyday-life. So long as people dont learn to think in a more greater scale than just "sleep, eat, work, money, sleep,..." nothing will change.
