stuf

there are too many beautiful women that like you in this world to occupy yourself with the beautiful women that don't like you. You can quote me on that.
Have a quotastic day! You can quote me on that too.
I'm independently lazy! another way of saying independently wealthy.
Did you ever hear of destiny by soap?

Well my brother set up an account on the internet 6 years ago and finally actually got his first response to it. He was surprised and delighted and didn't even remember writing it. So I said to him that it must have been floating in the internet ether for all that time and came washed ashore along with the the tide laundry detergent. You never know what the laundry detergent will bring in....

Destiny by soap.

Found electroma on youtube yesterday and watched it and the legend was seen for the first time. Also gave a girl a song to look up today since it sounded almost like it was singing shananana nana nana when actually the song is nananana nana nana and her name is shanay. Apparently has 2 kids or something and is extremely bad at communicating. On the bright side though it's like talking to a kid who's seeing everything fro the first time and te sense of wonder and fun and happiness. After laughing and smiling at everything I was saying all day she had some coupons and was saying she was trying to decide if she needed then and showed me one and asked if I ever used them and got toaster pastries? And I said I never use them, I don't care about money.... I don't need money." Then she responded "why wouldn't you want money?" I said, Life is more exciting without having money, if your some rich guy or something then everything is done for you." then I walked away to do my job because I'm not good in large doses, you could probably overdose on me because I'm so different than everybody else anybody ever meets. But I like the overnight girl Tiffany the most out of anybody around in florida because she's a survivor like me, but still really nice and good looking and laughs at what I say. I might have to become a heart breaker and sever ties at some point spontaneously and abruptly, I hope it doesn't make someone too sad, But you have to be with who you like and someone who likes you, life is too short. right now listening to "daft punk- prime time of your life".... only 84 out of 5000 disliked it.

Currently my exercise plan is, upper body for an hour one day, HIIT cardio for 20 minutes, or long distance bikeride, or walking around a new town that has low crime and good view for a few hours. then the next day do lower body for 45 minutes(all exercises on upper body and lower body are in order to have energy for each muscle group to get a full work out). The next day do cardio again, the next day do upper body again.... and repeat this indefinitely. SOmetimes I overdo it and walk to work now then walk all day at work. if I feel to tired to exercise then I skip it and do something else and I always do what I feel like doing and do my favorite types of exercises for each muscle group and I do 1-2 extra exercises than I'm supposed to for the shoulders and abs because I like those best.
Upper:
1.chest 2 exercises
2.shoulders 3-4 exercises till reach 10
3.back. close grip chin and one arm row are supposed to be best and are working wonders.
4. Bi 2 exercises but getting tired to may do only 3 sets of each or less
5. tri 2 exercise, but if time constraints get in the way or I'm just done and want to go I only do 1 exercise.
leg day:
1. Abs 3 exercises of side and oblique and center
2.leg ext. 2 exercises
3. leg curl 2 exercises
4. calves maybe only 3-4 sets or skip the exercise all together because my calves get enough from walking a lot.

For one muscle group 2 exercises the first exercise is favorite or target the second is only for 12 reps or until exhaustion or in other words your 10.
First exercise, first set 12 reps; second set 10 reps; 3rd set 8 reps; 4th set 6 reps. second exercise 12 reps
I hold for around 1 second at the top and try to stretch at the bottom or between exercises for the positive and negative.
I find that I get just as good of results without any creatine but I still do good tasting protein shakes right after the exercising for a meal to tide me over till a real meal. and I also drink a glass of milk before bed and water right when I wake up.

Diet, since I've given up on the meaning of my life ever being fulfilled, I've just finally decided that sometimes you just have to finally do stuff, This has taken forever because you have to finally take yourself out of the equation and be in the right midset. So I may actually do it this time and for the past 4 days I've stuck to a 100 grams of carbs a day diet, and ranging between 1600 and 2200 cal per day of food whenever I want to eat. usually it's burgers or teryaki chicken, or canned nuts for in between meal snacks. the meal and snack times are random and I only eat what I want to eat whenever I'm actually hungry.

Someone may be wondering what's going on with my blog?????????? Well this is now going to be a journal since I'm ending doing facebook since I don't want to tell anyone about my life since they never beleive me and never want to hang out to find out how true my life actually is. I will do great things and advertise it by showing not telling.

How the world should be run

How the world should be run

The following starts as an idea of things to come then goes into what's wrong with the world, and finally concludes with, how the world should be run.

-----------------

Things to come:

Tv is the most powerful multimedia device ever invented yet we never have even thought to use it as an education device. It would be free education and the best and improvable and able to be edited.

College should not be subsidised which actually instead of making it cheaper somehow makes it more expensive.

What's wrong with the world:

As a society our education has been sliding downhill. The people of the depression knew tons and could take care of themselves without money and had skills in every field, then the next generation had it easier and started living high on the hog in the good post war economy and now the modern generation X knows hardly anything from having almost everything done for them and also lack of good education or ability to afford it. and the next generation has it even worse to the point that lots of people I know are saying that they would not want to bring kids into the current world that we're in.

The world has been getting worse because we've been discovering more math and science in how to control people and things. Ever since they spelled out the laws of probability in the 1600's things started going down hill because that was the beginning of being able to control people without them even knowing it. The stock market, the elections, the casinos, and almost everything runs off of math and probability and is ruining your life and you don't even know it!

Whenever things change it always turns out for the worse because the math always changes for the worse. In the old days we got time and a half on sundays, now just a dollar extra an hour. In the old days we got percentage raises. Now not only just fixed rate rases which means after 20 years you'll still only get a 40 cent raise on $15 an hour. But the raises have gone from 60 cents an hour down to 40 cents an hour max. And instead of having full time. Now nobody hires full time and you have to work 2 jobs and get 2 incomes to make ends meet(this was all caused by government regulations). It used to be only the man worked and only needed one income. Now women started working and you needed 2 incomes to stay afloat. Now we both need 2 jobs so we need 4 incomes to stay afloat. And don't get me started on how corrupt pensions are and how they never work because of that and are one of the worst business ideas ever.

If you look at the math if you have a phone a simple little electronic device you keep in your pocket to talk to people. Well you'll be paying for it the rest of your life by your monthly phone bill. That math makes absolutely no sense to me and shouldn't for a such a simple small item that all it really is is a 2 way radio.

They did the math on how much it costs to own a car from maintenance and gas and payments and insurance and accidents and distance driven and time taken and everything and found out that it actually cost about the same amount in hours worked at a job as the time taken to walk at a pace of 3 miles an hour. Which sort of means that working to own a car is actually pointless.

That's not the only problem, our fiat currency is just a ticking time bomb. That's actually the definition of any currency is...ticking time bomb because they're made to hyper inflate over time and that is their function so some day and it IS inevitable, the dollar WILL fail no matter what.

They say that inflation is on average 3 percent a year, but what is inflation? All that inflation is is the government printing money. If you have more dollars but the same amount of goods and services then that's called inflation. It's a tax on you and everyone else that you don't even know about. It's a tax on everything. Almost as bad as a sir tax which is a tax on a tax. And the funniest thing I've heard lately is that in may of 2012 you'll have to pay $5 a month just to own money from bank of America customers. Even writing a check costs the money of the check itself. Supposedly the banks only make money off of fees and charges and gimmicks now because they're not alowed to make money off of loaning people money anymore because of the new extreme regulations put on them and inflicted by the government all because of the housing market crash. Just like they over regulated airlines because of terrorists. But the ironic thing is they the government caused the housing crash themselves by giving out zero percent finance deals to bad deals that couldn't afford the houses down payment or the house itself to begin with. Which makes you wonder if everything is set up sometimes.

I can prove that it is set up sometimes because remember the tomato crisis of a couple years ago of the ecoli contaminated tomatoes. They actually never were contaminated to begin with which they found out after the entire tomatoe industry was totally obliterated. So when those farms went out of business somebody bought them. And it wasn't you or me. they come out with these new food crisis' a few times every year this year it was strawberries earlier and now a little known cantelope disease that killed about 5 people altogether who had allergies. So some of those companies will go under and be taken over for no reason. Talk about making a mountain out of a mole hill. I actually have termed it accidental crime. Causing actual damage and suffering on accident and then taking back what you said later. Like that second 100 mile long oil slick that was in the gulf that never actually existed.

I know for a fact that you and I are smarter and better than ever person in power living today for one simple reason. That they are after power. I am of the mind set that why would you want complete and total control over something that is worthless. Sure you have TV and a mansion and a helicopter. But why not have better technology and explore space and devolop teleportation or hyper thinking or brain downloads or holodecks or even just live in a nice world with actual friends and nice people???? Why rule over something that has no value and stay in the dark ages. If you actually have a brain and see what is possible and how we are the most successful and intelligent and awesome species in the known universe and to waste that by keeping people from actually being human, then you've got to be completely mentally retarded to want power. That's how I know I'm above them, or that they have an alterior motive that may not even be their own.

Laissez faire or leave us alone is true on many levels. First of all in capitalism when there is no impedance then people will thrive. If all businesses had no overhead then technically all businesses would be profitable. So no taxes or regulation or law would make an economy the best ever. But also on another level I believe leaving people alone to their own devices they thrive as people, because it's natural for you and I if we can do whatever we want whenever we want to improve our own lives and to learn new things. So we will build on our own lives instead of doing absolutely nothing and being bored. So I content that people who do whatever they want to all the time are actually on average a lot smarter than people who have a job they don't like that takes up all of their time. This would also be true in how to raise a child, because you can force a kid to take violin lessons but that doesn't mean they'll be good at it. So support what they like and let them wander off and explore and they'll most likely become a genius at whatever they like most.

I was at a museum and saw some old flasks and cosmetic containers form B.C. era and saw theat the types of glass and craftsmanship were some of the best I'd ever seen even in modern times because back then people were craftsman and had to be the best of the best to be able to sell their product. Also back then there was less supply and more demand and when you were the only one with that craft in a small town then you'd definitely get paid for your work. But now, first of all nobody crafts anymore or knows anything. The craftiest person I've seen lately can make badges out of bottle caps and a magnet(who cares)???? But now there is also less demand and over supply an also a world of competitors when selling online to have to be better than in price or quality. Also there are hardly any jobs these days either so people will take the crappiest lowest paying jobs and be happy with it. So we both have no money to buy things anymore and the market is flooded and also the highest competition ever in our inficities, the cities that go on forever with infinite businesses selling the same thing.


How the world should be run:

Have a communicator that only pay for once. It's called a radio and can be directional to not lose signal strength.

Have education on TV for free and have it all college level and 100% accurate since that's possible with editing.

Do not tax or regulate or even have government for that matter if at all possible like the Amish Mennonites.

There is no stealing if you make your own stuff and everybody has the same stuff like the Amish.

Let people do whatever they want as kids and adults, and have a craft so that you don't work crappy jobs all day long everyday because of the overloaded market and low demand. Let people own land and own all of their "own stuff".

Have gold or other metal as currency, not paper.

Know reality and how to take care of yourself even without a job like the great depression.

Don't have baby food and clothes so high that the biggest expense in life is a baby. you should be able to have kids without it ruining future finances. All other animals can. The man should have the only income again and be able to decide where to move because of need for his talents in a town. And the woman can take care of the kids.

Have fruit and nut trees everywhere for free food if needed. Maybe Johnny apple seed had a good idea after all.

Have space and don't have high traffic in dense cities. Everybody has less stress when they don't get pissed off waiting 5 minutes to make a turn onto a street at a 4 way stop because of traffic.

Do not have your life on the internet or pay an internet bill or have to also pay for a working computer just to stay afloat online. This should be a secondary part of life and cost nothing, not primary and be a bill forever.

Have small towns so that first of all your services are in demand, second you ride a bike and don't need a car or car insurance or gas or license or registration, or have to pay tickets, and third more space and less stress, and forth owning land to grow food on to not need a store, and fifth the man decides to move to a town that needs his skills with the wife tagging along without a job.

With less work to do because you get paid more and are in demand then you also get more time and don't have an over crowded schedule, and have time to learn more at your skill and be the best around. Not many appointments and not much to think about except what want to.

Macrocosm

If you think of the big picture everything is fine, in fact perfect... In the Macrocosm.
.........
Our planet is a closed system and has been for the last billion or so years. You can destroy the present state with garbage but really only the tiniest fraction of the surface and we still can't make a real impact. Even if you decided to travel the world, go in a strait line and never stop, you'd be traveling for the rest of your life and still wouldn't have seen or learned everything.

A satellite is falling to earth right now and was in the news but only had a 1 in 3,600 chance of hitting anything or anyone. And that's if it hit land and our planet is around 70% ocean. Even asteroids have such large intergalactic speed compared to the earths orbital speed that just the sheer kinetic energy is as much as a nuclear bomb.

1 million dollars is nothing compared to the entire world economy. Yes you could pay people to do your bidding at 10$ an hour for 10,000 hours(that's 40 hours a week for 5 years), or make successful businesses and prosper, but still it would not make any difference to the world as a whole what you did with that money. Even if millions of people died in some kind of natural disaster, it's just another day in the life of the planet earth. That wouldn't even be as bad as any of the mass extinctions throughout the earths history. Just it's normal cycles.

We may consider our lives extremely crappy at times and get depressed and bored and feel sick or tired but in the big picture we are only one person out of billions, So instead of focusing on your tiny apartment or just your lame city think outside of that box that confines you. So in a sense if you just humbled yourself a little bit and stopped thinking about your personal microcosm, then a little pain or discomfort is nothing at all, compared to the big picture. You need to stand out and be larger than life if you want to compete with the size and grandeur of the world or universe. Lets say you managed a little discomfort and did 30 minutes of exercise a day and ate as little as animals eat. This would make you stand out like a sore thumb in a crowd, and you'd probably feel like you could take on the world too, all for just a tiny bit of discomfort.

You may be concerned about your job but in the big picture you can get another job anywhere in the world even if you're a criminal or suck at everything. In fact it was Gordon Ramsey the famous chef that is now worth over a billion, that said to young aspiring chefs, that you should step outside of your comfort zone, learn a new language, go to new places and see new things, in order to build character because it breeds confidence. Anyways you should be doing something you love doing. If it's a hobby you'll naturally get more practice at it and be better at it. You may even be a savant at something that you didn't know you could do, if you just try doing new things you've never done before. Our brains and hands are multipurpose, and not meant to be wasted.

There are lots of things you don't know, but what if you learned more. Knew more about things then your view of the world would be bigger and you brain used to more of an extent. There is more to know then you can ever know. Our total IQ is probably comparable to the size of a tea cup in an ocean of knowledge. Unless you are a Reductionist and are able to somehow sum up everything in some extremely simple and elegant formula.

All animals are different too and we can learn a lot from them by looking outside of our suburban mindset. Birds in the sky don't bring food with them when they go miles up n the air, and then start to float away. They aren't skinny because they do a lot of exercise, most animals just don't have as much food available to eat as humans. This is obvious when they fight over scraps when you feed them. But they are also humble enough even with such a simple boring life to not go crazy, or complain, or worry.

Survivology

Name: Arthur L

Age:28

Location: New Port Richey Fl

Occupation: Artist

My list of priorities:

1. EDC kit

2. Survival kit backpack

3. My notebooks of my research

4. Extra tools

5. Sentimental items

6. Reference books

7. The 1 most valuable thing in the house

8. Plan "B"


For what I would carry if my house was burning down:

I'm into survivalism and am pretty much prepaired for everything. First of all, I do not want to live in a wood house or anything with the high risk of burning down, or high crime or any other high risk.

1. If nothing else and I only had seconds to escape. I have my EDC kit or every day carry which is all I personally need. Which is a surge multitool with a flint magnesium fire starter. Along with my wallet and keys and a pen and internet phone, which may or may not become moot.

2. Extra things I would try to get before escaping if at all possible, would be my backpack emergency kit filled with camping survivalist essentials to make life easy as first priority. This has everything needed to make Shelter/fire/water/food/medical/hygiene/tools/navigation/signaling. It has a folding saw, steel water bottle, tent hammock, rope, knives, sharpeners, crank lights, fresnel lens, firesteel, fishing stuff, snacks, TP, book on edible medicinal plants, notes on traps and knots, etc. But really all of this is just extra for comfort.

3, and 4. I have important information I've written in notebooks, but I'm currently putting more and more of my notes and research on the internet through blogs and video sites like youtube, so I shouldn't ever have to carry that. So instead second priority would be extra tools. If expensive and hard to find.

5, and 6: Sentimental items like pictures and memories of the past, and the best reference books from my library. But that also I should start putting on the internet along with my video library and just make a list of the books I have to buy later.

Supposedly if I lost all my paper work and files I'd be screwed but really if your life is so literally controlled by paperwork and it all came down to that??? Then I'd just leave the city and this ridiculous bureaucracy forever. There are more things to life than having constant stress and working for the man. No, I'm not one of those rich people who buys a house in California and coincidentally buys very high insurance on it right before the convenient forest fire.


8. I have lots of valuable things but I also don't need money because I can survive without it, and I like doing things for myself. So that would be the last priority and I'd probably pick the one most expensive thing in the house. I also could make, money anywhere as an artist. I'd make sure everybody else is safe before saving myself. Then after all the ash is settled I'd make way for my plan "B". Go to my self built cabin somewhere in my undisclosed location without taxes(or build it, if I hadn't already by then, this would be the perfect excuse!) but that would be my final destination.


In the end, I'm an independent individual, and a free thinker, and I have sentimentality but I don't let it rule my life, so if "shtf" and the fire was caused by some other reason than just bad house construction then I'd be ready. Who needs stuff anyway? I'd probably be happier if my apartment burned down! Sounds like an actual adventure.

If you have stuff you fear losing it, If you have nothing you fear nothing.

No lose poker

If you knew you had a 70% advantage to win a hand every time you played it what would you do?
Well double up after winning about 2 or 3 of those then play at the next level. Then double up again and again and again.
If you go all in preflop with aa, kk, qq, jj, (this will happen about once every 50 hands, then you double up then go to the next level. You could go from table to table every 30 minutes to not let anyone know your style of play. and when you have a good cushion of money you go up to the next bet level. You would need a table of players who are call stations or loose players and not tight. And with blinds small you can wait for a good hand. You'd only go down about 15$ in 1-2 no limit before hitting a hand. If they call. You don't even have to be good at poker to do this.

Hitting top pair 30% of time you have 2 high cards should pay for the blinds. If not other trap hands which a good poker player would be wise to know.



(A,A)(k,k)(Q,Q) pre flop always go all in with because have a 70% chance of winning.

Raise pre flop then: postflop top pair top kicker, top kicker, go all in because only 2% chance they have 2 pair and small chance they have pocket over pair if you were playing good hands.

call multiple bets with pocket pairs(preflop pair 6% chance)

Call multiple bets with suited connectors, 12% chance of getting all in hand.

-----------

High pair QQ, KK, AA: Go all in preflop and hope someone calls. Hopefully you'll get a string of high pairs in a row and double up multiple times in a row and quickly get a huge bankroll. If no one calls the all in then you'll have to wait until the next high pair, which will be roughly another 6 blinds.

High cards 10/k and above:
Play from any position and call small raise and if have top pair then go all in because they only have a 2% chance of having 2 pair or and 4% chance of trips. Hope that they call with bad kicker or second pair.

Suited connectors:
Call in any position because of the infinite outs you could get. Don't call huge amounts. This is good if you get a straight or a flush and put a person all in but always be in position. Chances they have a better flush are low and wait for them to improve before putting them all in.

A,rag suited, K rag suited:
Only play in position because you want to know if they're going to bet since you're chasing and fold if you get a pair, Never call a raise.

But if you can get in cheap in position then even a rag off suit can hit trips once in a while. or 2 pair once every 50 hands. This is good for low balling and if you always try to steal the blinds and bet pattern is always the same. So don't do this in this system.

-----

System to win: Buy in for half of your bankroll then try to triple it up. If you do, then you buy in for half of that bank roll. If you don't and lose your whole stack then buy in for half of your new bankroll. This is higher risk but at the lower levels its worth the extra risk to get a bigger bankroll quickly. Every hour or so get up and change tables so that nobody can tell how tight of a player you are. Do not pay for a draw. Unless 15-20 outer. So basically don't do implied odds very much at all.



Hitting the flop percentages

Pros and Cons of Different Societies

Capitalism pros and cons:
  • Over time in capitalism things become made out of cheaper and cheaper materials and also become made badly so that they break on purpose called "engineered obsolescence". Supposedly capitalism leads to innovation, and invention, and easier life, but really it doesn't lead to an easier life if you have to work 40 hours a week or more nowadays, just to pay the bills, and keep rebuying things that break or run out, and this continues until the day you die. Also these inventions that "make life easier" over time are made cheaper and cheaper and to break easier so it becomes a badly made invention through the natural course of capitalism. This would even take place in pure capitalism and is the main flaw in even pure capitalism.
  • Also capitalism is sort of like democracy because you are voting on a product by paying for it so products that nobody buys go out of business but the thing is that advertising is what decides what is bought most. And since only rich people can afford advertising then that is the rich people win scenario and innovation and change is harder
  • Right now we have one of the biggest transfers of wealth in history from the housing collapse. But it transfering from the poor to the rich. Only people with 20,000$ can buy a foreclosed house. Most people are too poor to make good investments.
  • When your hands are busy with busy work that never ends then you have no time to think and be creative and use your innate human ingenuity so our entire population that is working all day long could be thinking and inventing instead.
  • Also capitalism reacts to changes in population. If the whole population is trying to save money and also work 70 hours a week then guess what? You also have to do that in order to keep up with the competition. Labor costs go down and product costs of different products change.
  • When jobs are transported over sees guess what? Unemployment goes up and you start to get paid less and you have to go to school again and now more competition in all the other fields means everybody as a whole gets payed less from high workforce low job availability.
  • Monopolies.


Democracy:
  • The minority are slave to the majority. This is how America started and is probably why we had black people as slaves. Because they were the minority.

Socialism/Dictatorships/the Ruling Class:
  • Always springs up from capitalism as the government taking money to protect the people from outsiders, and from themselves, and eventually turns into dictatorship and martial law. The ruling class make more and more rules over time to get more and more control. We have ultimate power to control other humans now, the only reason is for money and to enslave people. People are then a commodity or possession.
  • You wouldn't need slaves though if things were all free some day. Socialism and dictatorships are basically another word for slavery. "The borrower is slave to the lender". And the government is a loan you will never pay off. This is exactly how the mob operates.
  • Rules and regulations and laws and contracts and EVERYTHING are made infinitely complex on purpose to dissuade you from ever even attempting anything and to keep you under control. This is call "Bureaucracy".

Egalitarianism, Tribal culture, and Native Americans pros and cons:
  • This is a static society. Things don't really change over a long time. They just have food, shelter, and community. In there words: When work needs to get done we all work, when food is plentiful we all eat. They would volunteer when things needed fixing or when food needed to get collected then it gets done quickly and efficiently and they rest for the rest of the week. They each only use what they need, so the resources and environment didn't get damaged. With the free time each one of them had time to think and be creative and craft new things.
  • They say that if you didn't have to work then nothing would ever get invented but in reality, I invent or research and develop things because I'm bored and enjoy it, even though I will never get paid. Also necessity is the mother of invention and if there ever really is a need such as way to catch food then we as humans would invent and did invent, or just fiddle around with things for fun.
  • Really experiments and even entertainment people do for free for you to watch for free also as proven by youtube, as well as blogs and discussion groups to solve problems. I'd venture to say that this is actually better entertainment most of the time also.
  • We would also through natural logic instead of capitalism, develop things to never break and out of better materials, so that we wouldn't have to make them again, most notably, houses which are made too complex and wrong and out of the cheapest materials known to man.
  • Without working 40 hours a week, you would have time for philosophy, art, science, learning, stories, entertainment, games dancing, potlucks, BBQ's every week, building, traveling, visiting family, and having time for friends which is the most important.
  • If you steal something you might start a fight or worse get killed. But why steal when someone will show you how to make something or you could trade for it. And that's only for new inventions that nobody has ever seen before. When everybody already has everything they need then why steal? This was their mentality.
  • Hopefully no motive for crime or for slavery if everything is free and no work to do anyway. I don't ever remember reading about slaves in any Native American culture ever even the Mayans.
  • Some resources are scarcer than others so in capitalism the price goes up, but when you only use what you need and there are not monopolies then it's free, and you just go get it yourself when it's needed. They also had people who would travel from town to town to bring news and objects from far away. By hand without horses. No giant trucks.
  • No stock market. No economic crashes.
  • No living on the street or homeless
  • The only charity is volunteering time or knowledge, not giving money which is widely used as money laundering by charities who skim off the top and also promote socialist agendas. Tithing for church is a messed up thing for god to promote.
  • Giving thanks was traditional for everything and their ceremonies were not about commercialism and presents and boosting the economy which is the main reason we have most holidays in America.
  • They just sat around and smoked pot and drank alcohol all day long every day.
  • They had no technology. And some say that it's impossible to have complex technology for free without capitalism. But I say why make it complex. That' why we have brains...so that we don't have to work as hard through tools and methods. The goal is to simplify things which are sleeker and extremely simple with no moving parts.
  • Indian kids knew how to survive as much as adults by the age of 7.
  • Medication was just plants with instant effects that were noticeable and worked and were free(not a monopoly). They had medicine men but also a healthier population and let natural selection take it's course. Before insurance (same term the mob used) took over. No hospitals was actually better because they didn't infect other patients and create staff infections in hospitals like nowadays.
  • It costs money to have fun or do anything in the city and it's always fake because you're not allowed to do any real things like build or garden or trap etc. Instead you get virtual lives on f***book. Like in the Alaska documentary about old crow where the guy visited old crow to learn subsistence living from his dad then went back to the city and was extremely bored and finally had to move to old crow because there was actually always stuff to do. And probably also friends to do stuff with that had time. And less stress. And this is a real place right now as we speak.
The goal of capitalism is to get a million dollars, then you finally don't have to work anymore... But really ancient tribal people hardly ever worked either and some are still around today who if you research it hardly ever work although with primitive technology. They had brains. They would have houses with no rent and just collected food, and just did whatever they wanted the rest of the time. But everybody did this, so everyone was basically a millionaire!

I'm man enough to admit that egalitarianism is sort of speculative and may or may not work with today's world. But I also know for a fact that socialism, democracy, and even capitalism don't work and have always failed and fallen and always will.


As far as we know we are the most intelligent and most successful species in the universe, shouldn't our lives be extremely easy and stress free and simple?

When you're constantly in a hurry and work really hard all the time.... somethings wrong! That's why we have brains.

Ancient Survivalism Meets>>> Modern Technology

An old theory of mine was that native americans were way more advanced philosophically and had a better society than white men and if it wasn't for the more advanced weapons of the white man and the indians had won the war the world would be a better place right now.

Native Americans were like any other human except that they had time on their hands and weren't in the pursuit of money. The natives of the northwest US had so much food available all year round that life was easy and enjoyable. So they were free to use their brains and their hands. This lead to art(totem poles) Stories, spirituality, philosophy, baskets, long houses, canoes, communities along the entire puget sound got along and would visit each other every year in the traditional canoe trips. They even lived together in large long houses with multiple families while nowadays we all have separate rooms and apartments. They had no concept of land ownership and never built fences...EVER.

If you compare them to modern white men and women. We are so vain that using dirt or animal or grass for any part of our houses is considered disgusting, Not to mention our obsession with self image. We have parents who act like children, and fake relationships where the only meaning to our lives is a spouse and kids and pets instead of adventure and exploration and being independent. We are always yelling at each other and stealing from each other mostly about money. We litter and don't care. We know so little about anything that assumptions and misconceptions are the main cause of arguments. And our lack of knowledge and experience makes it impossible to ever change our lifestyle or location in the world. We're so spoiled that it takes some people hours just to decide what restaurant they want to go to for dinner. We are so sedentary that we have an obesity epidemic. We don't know where our food or T-shirts come from and just buy it from the store.

---------------------------------

So if I were to start over I'd have a society with native american knowledge but with modern technology.

The technical term is egalitarian society, but with research and development.

We have the technology right now to never have to work again but the only problem is that everybody on the entire planet is working and are actually by definition slaves to a master. It only gets worse with both capitalism and socialism.

-------------------

How to do it:


As the native americans did, you all work together to build a town, then you all work together to make a farm with irrigation and plant plants, then you all work together to harvest them. Then the group or one elder divides the grain up evenly between families and the ones with more mouths to feed get a bigger percentage of the grain. And if there's tons of grain each person gets tons of grain.
When works needs to get done everybody volunteers to work, when food is plentiful everybody eats.


To add the modern twist onto that:



Plumbing: compost or pasteurising toilets

Lighting: Fiber optics, LED, Solar panels, Or high tech theoretical technologies like high voltage light spheres

Energy: Don't use any, Or atomic battery, or reverse heat engine, spinning tub of sand. Solar panels

Heating/cooling: Better insulated houses

Medical: Have a box of medicine supplies and someone who read a book on the subject and can look up info as needed. Just like the old days with house calls.

Vehicle: helicopter, lifter, paraglider, advanced golf carts

Entertainment: Too easy to become propaganda so better to just have social activities like eating and church and sports and classes building stuff or arts/crafts hunting gathering

Home construction: Walls with roof, will never break and is therefore free housing to the next generation, Easy and cheap to make materials and infinite houses free to habitate.

Gadgets Devices: Made right with best materials so that will never break and never need improvement for their universal function. Until get a better version then replace.

Jobs: None
