An amazing film that should be seen by anyone.

Zeitgeist Moving Forward is constructed of three pieces: 1.The social psychology and the effect it has on people even from nurture. 2.The current economic system, or as very well placed the anti-economic system, and it's effect on human behavior. 3.The most radical and scientific methods of us humans getting out of this current state of worldwide slavery.

Either you agree with what you see or not, you have to understand that with today's technology most of people's problems would eliminate because most of our problems, if not all, are technical(food, clean water, shelter, clothing, life!). Also scientifically proved is that the environment is what shapes people's attitude. That said, people would evolve into much better human beings with crimes dropping to a much lower degree if not zero!

What "annoyed" me is that i was expecting more practical solutions on how we overcome the current system but i guess that's the movie's point: when we people start and change our way of thinking for the betterment of everyone's favor and unite as it's in our nature to be one then no government or institute can stop us. Not from fighting cause that's not the point, but simply from denying this miserable way of life...

I know many people will see it and say "not in a million years could this happen" and be cynical about it but i think that's where our problem lies, we don't understand that if history would to be changed it would be changed by us and not the powerful ones. If they wanted to change a thing they would have done it already!

They support this system because it supports them, but why the hell do we support it?! 10 out of 10 from me just because of it's motivations! And spare me these conspiracy theories crap because they don't stand a chance in the world envisioned by Fresco, no one can enslave you and run your life when there is no money involved. The purpose is gone, so is any personal gain. And i just cannot believe that Fresco and Meadows have spent all of their lives creating The Venus Project believing that some day they could rule us all or be that naive suggesting a culture that can create such behaviors...

I personally believe in the Zeitgeist Movement cause it is run by everyday people like me, people with consciousness and social awareness that supports a new way of living and thinking. They're not to blame more than the people that go and vote for governors who have proved over and over again that they are useless to help and solve any real problem. It's the most irrational thing in the history of human beings to believe that even if you change the president with someone decent he wont eventually do the same or be put out of the game cause he wont serve the bank's and company's interest.

In other words, just go and see this movie, the least it can do is to put you in a different thinking mode and that's what it is all about...
