  • People are not reasonable,

  • you have to manipulate the variables to get them to understand The Venus Project.

  • But then get them to understand

  • that The Venus Project doesn't solve all problems.

  • It's just hell of a lot better than what we've got.

  • That's all you got to understand.

  • We don't seek perfection or utopia or anything like that.

  • We just seek... we know the world could be far better,

  • that there is no need for most crimes.

  • And it's cheaper, by the way, to make things available to people than put them in jail.

  • It costs $50,000 a year to keep a kid in jail.

  • How stupid can you be? $75,000 for an adult

  • and they don't come out any better, I think you know that.

  • So this way, if you took the price of 10 kids in jail,

  • we can make everything available to people: art materials,

  • musical [instruments], violins, give it to them!

  • It is cheaper than putting them in jail. Make things available to people.

  • And your kids in the distant future will say to you (if you're still around):

  • "Couldn't you see that? Wasn't that obvious?"

  • You'll say, "No! We were steeped in it!"

  • When you brought up in a bucket of shit up to here, you know of no other world.

  • It's just that you don't duck much, that is all.

  • But the world you live in is so loused up, and the people you talk to...

  • That is why I know if I get on television I can turn millions of people around,

  • because I don't come at them [you] offensively.

  • And I know they are looking for answers.

  • But they don't know an answer if they heard it today, so...

  • You guys have to do some work when you leave here.

  • That why I'm trying to compress it all I can,

  • and give you all I can within the time we're together. OK?

  • So I'm going to send you on your way, because we've got lot of work to do.
