Saving the World Part 2 (the resultes)

As i had promised, i shall no longer bore you with the going ons of my mind and personal reasons for doing this. From here on out, it shall strictly be saving the world. (By the way if any one has any critics, praising, ideas, or comments in general, please feel free to post. The best way to move forward is not through arguing with people who agree with you, but arguing with those against.)

There are many problems with this world. Famine, War, Hate, bankruptcy, abuse of power, inequality are just some well known ones, that everyone agrees on. My idea is to get rid off all of them in one foul swoop. I plan to make the world and humanity efficient and working, yet free. I plan to get rid of underlying hate and prejudices without limiting freedom of speech. I plan to give power to the people, and have them use it for the best. I plan to make the children of enemies friends, and give food to the poor. I plan to have everyone share the wealth, yet at the same time promote competition and capitalism.

Let me first share with you the end results. What the world will be like after i change it. Imagine that there is no more urban sprawl, or sprawl in general. Imagine that forests are beginning to grow back, and they are becoming natural parks and places of rest and comfort. Imagine that people no longer live out across the land, but instead in huge, clean cities, in huge skyscrapers with one room per person. (Though this may sound bad at first, if that room had the ability to become any room imaginable, and have the ability to show you anywhere in the world, making it appear that you where there, and would be self cleaning would it be all that bad?) Imagine if there was an effecient, and free transit system that could bring you to any place in the world. Imagine if electricity was free, there were no monetary tax's, the basics of food where free, as was housing in the apartments.

Now imagine if all that was true.

When i am done with the world, that will be true. To replace the urban sprawl, and humanities sprawl in general, people will begin to live in practically self sustaining cities, where up was the new out. They shall be housed in state of the art rooms, where the walls, floors, and ceilings will be lined with fiber optic cables, which would project anything that the user would like. If the user wanted to see the great wall of china, all he/she would need to do would be to ask the room to take him/her there, and the screens on the walls would change to a sweep of the Great wall. Every room would have its own computer and wall screens, possibly with the new 3D Technology they are working on which would create a mist in the room for 3D projections to be cast, making the experience even more realistic. Everyone would have a praticly free smart room.

I had also mentioned mass transit. This is one of the ideas that is harder to sell, as people who are economically minded don't see how it is possible. What they don't see is that it is possible, if everything came free. The system would be set up like this. All of these cities would be made up of three parts. The central farms, the residential skyscrapers, and the commercial district. The cities would be broken up into the rings. The inner ring would be the farms, the next ring would be residential, and the outermost would be commercial. There would be a station at each of the major buildings, each housing complex, each farm, and each commercial tower that would be large enough to have one. There would also be many entrances that would be scattered amongst the walkways in the cities. There would be no cars, only these trains, and the walkways. These cities would be cities of cylinders. All buildings being made up of this shape.

The transit system would also be broken into at least three levels. The top most level would be the intercity level. It would connect all the major buildings in the city, and the stops at the surface laid across the city. The next level down would be the one that connects all the cities in a predesignated radius, allowing quick and easy travel between cities, adding to trade and commerce in between these cities. The third level down would be the transit system that allowed easy travel between these radius's. The forth would be transcontinental. And ofcourse all of this would be free.

That unfortunately isn't the hardest thing to swallow. The hardest thing people would have to accept would be that all the trains would be subterranean. Which in modern days would be sneered upon as being unrealistic and impossible. What they don't understand, would be that this wouldn't be so, if these cities had free labor.

This will be explained by the new socio-economic theory that i will be enacting, but before i go into that, let me explain the first idea that I had come up with. What will be the mantle piece of these cities, what will be in the dead center of each one. This would be the sky rise farms, the sky rise greenery. As I said before, these cities would be cities of growing up instead of out. Imagine a farm in the center of the city, that would was several stories high. Each story would be multiplying the facilities output. A seven story plantation would produce 7X as much food as a regular plantation. Each city would have one of these, which would also allow for closer observation and care of the plants, also increasing output. These plants would be able to be feed sunlight 24/7 by the great invention of electricity. The only downfall of this, even with my new economic theory would be the soil would need to be mined and added to the farms, which would be hard, as soil does eventually loose its nutrients.

Finally, what allows all of these ideas to work together. What will allow these cities to work till the end of the world, will be the socio-economic theory im sure all the readers who are actually reading this was waiting for. Let me start this properly, there are two major economic forces in the world that are acknowledged and taught. They are communism (really socialism, but I don't care to explain the differences, so i shall continue to call it communism laziness), and capitalism. Both have their flaws, in communism, there is no competition, so no one puts any heart into there work, causing its eventual destruction, capitalism is the opposite, it is pure competition, which leads to eventual inequality, which for those who don't know, is generally bad, at least as it is now.

I plan to take the best of both worlds. I plan to implement the following idea. The economy will be a dual economy. The first and secondary being that of credits to the company. Basically, instead of monetary tax's, the tax's will be labor tax's. Each person in a city will be required to work a certain number of hours of company/community service. This number will depend upon the population of the city (more mouths to feed, but should equal out to less work per person) and how efficient there production is.

Look at it this way, this service shall be broken up into groups. One will be manual labor, where the citizen will work a few hours a week working on company projects, such as building bridges, trains, subterranean rails, or farming. The next group will be that of the bureaucracy, those who show talent in leadership will be placed in the positions of overlooking and making sure that the projects will be led off without a hitch and done efficiently and safely. Finally there shall be the group for the mind. These people shall be put into think tanks, and be asked to make ideas and inventions that will make those doing manual labor and such jobs easier. The system will work like so. Everything free, that is electricity, the smart houses, basics foods, and the rail ways shall coast a certain number of credits. These credits are earned through doing service for the company. It will be set up hopefully, so that the minimum that would be needed per person would only be a handful of hours a week. If the person wanted, he could do a year or so of hours straight through, and not need to do any more for quite a while. Or if the person wanted, they could only do the minimum amount of hours needed a day for the rest of there life. No more monetary tax's, just some time out of their day. No way for money to be cheated from them by corrupt politions, because the people will be doing the work themselves. No loss of efficiency.

The other part of this dual economy, the one that will make life worth living for these people will be called the luxury market. This will be a completely seperate economy, in which people will buy luxuries, such as better wall panels, resorts outside the cites, better prepared food, bigger refrigerators, time at the spa, and anything else the public wants on the market. The "non-essentials" shall be here, where the world will be strictly that of a capitalistic market. People may find jobs here, start businesses, gamble, or buy art with these credits. If people really wanted, they could simply live off what they work for in the first said market... but people being people, i foresee greed, and a need for fun coming in, and humanity advancing through this market, and flourishing.

The only way these two markets will interact will be if a new technology is discovered, and becomes wide spread enough, that it will could be adopted into the earlier stated market, being something everyone could have.

There are two more ideas that will be incorporated in the cities. But i will get to them later.

After that said post, i will tell you readers how this will come to be...

Please post comments, it is the only way to make this idea better.

Saving The World Part 1 (the reasons)

First and foremost, people should realize why i am doing this. It is not because i love humanity, it is not because i want to do the work, or want to change the world. I am doing this because i can, and i believe that the way to get into heaven (or any other beneficial afterlife there is) is to do what one can to help the world. There was a story that Jesus told where there were two people were giving money to a synagogue. There was a rich patron and a poor widow. When they went in to give there offerings to the temple, the man went up proudly and poured in a substantial amount of money into the coffers, but it was only a small portion of the profits he made. Next the old widow went up and put in a single coin, but it was this single coin was a good portion of her needed revenue. Jesus clearly stated that the old widow would be happier in heaven than the rich man, as what she gave was worth more, as she put in a portion of her life, while the rich man added only some money from his luxury pot.

This isn't what happened word for word, but the general gist is there. To be happier in heaven is to give a portion of ones life to make the world a better place for everyone else. I actually wish that i was born poor and a simpleton, as i would be able to enjoy life without this burden and go to heaven having the utmost joy, but i was born into a bit of wealth (basically one is wealthy if one is living comfortably living in America) and was given the perfect mixture of wisdom, ideas, and madness to take on the world, and make it for the better.

This, if the readers follow my logic, puts me in a bit of a hard position. It means that in Jesus's story, I take the place of the rich man, and must pour some of my life (which will equal quite a bit) into implementing my ideas, and making the world better for all those who are stuck with misfortune and simple bad luck.

If you are interested in saving the world, regardless of personal reasons or reasons in general, i ask you to continue reading, and i promise that the rest of this... idea won't be as boring and pointless as what you have read so far.
