This is exactly what makes the concepts of The Venus Project possible when you really think of a future where we can produce anything that we need; then the purpose of human beings takes on a different meaning and our global civilization evolves to support the technology that we merge with in a way that transcends our notions of cyborgs and virtual realities.


Once again reminding me of Gene Roddenberry's vision.

And nicely quoted by Picard - "The economics of the future is somewhat different. You see, money doesn't exist in the 24th century... The acquisition of wealth is no longer the driving force in our lives. We work to better ourselves and the rest of humanity." ("Star Trek: First Contact")
