FAQ file For those who can best gain an understanding of something via asking questions there is a massive questions and answers file. Since the work of the scientist founders of this plan has been studied by thousands of people during the past 75 years many questions have been asked by the citizenry the answers can be found in the Q & A file.
An e-book, Afta NAFTA. For those who prefer to learn by reading novels. It is an easy to read, well written, story. This author takes the reader on a tour of our Continent in about 2017.
Some history:
in 1919 two things became apparent
to the federal administration of the United States of America One was that due
to the technology installed during World War One America was able to produce
more than ever with a much smaller work force. Machines were doing the work of
people on a scale which had not even been contemplated. Secondly only a small
percentage of people would return to rural America from whence they came. The
scientific community was asked by president Woodrow Wilson what societal
results could be expected. The Continent wide investigation was directed from Columbia University. When the scientific community's astounding results were made known to
the administration it was decided that the information was to be kept from the
public. The consensus of the scientific community was: that the then current
(1923) pre-technological social system would soon become un-viable! The man `in
charge' of the research project Howard Scott wanted the data preserved and
public informed. He founded a group in order to achieve this. During the next
decade the members (scientists) synthesized a new social design which would be
compatible with the advent of technology. In 1933 the group was incorporated as
a non-profit educational and research membership Organization. The current members are now the caretakers of a
social design which is as usable as it was when the
foremost scientists of this Continent first devised it.

David
Ravlin (DFR) he’s hip and here’s his trip. He’s a futuristic educator, being well trained in such maters, his science based depiction of our next most probable method of social
operation here in North America makes it plain to any rational person that the
future WILL be friendly. He says that we not only can but will be able to solve
all major social problems and in plenty of time to forestall the widely
speculated upon collapse of our ecological environment. He points out that the
ability for humankind to deal with mammoth social problems did not exist until
the advent of an instant form of communication was available and now we have it
the www of internet. That the ability to overcome inequality and strife between
the have’s and the have not’s did not exist before the advent of technology
with its resultant abundance of goods and services. Enough for all! The ability
to solve North Americas’ major social problems requires a change in our method
of acquiring goods and accessing services away from that of the bygone hand
tool era wherein we had to have a job to get money to get stuff to one that is
compatible with our modern computerized machine age wherein jobs no longer
exist for an ever increasing number of people. This can be accomplished by a
change in accounting systems from financial accounting which puts a price on
everything in terms of money to an energy accounting system which simply
denotes the cost of things in terms of energy credits. To make this change we
need a plan and we need a widespread educational program so that all North
Americans can gain an understanding of the part that they will have in the
change. This is what DFR and thousands of other educators are involved in. Not
an easy task since everyone is conditioned from birth onwards to the usage of
money. DFR is a product of the 1960’s when the seeking of a plan for living
without money and its attendant evils was the thing to do. Well, such a plan
does exist it is not based upon the wishful thinking of any individual nor the
desires of any cult or group but rather is based upon a solid foundation of
scientific principles it is therefore a plan that can be used with a
probability of success that approaches certainty.
The inclusion of money in all
discussions of social problem solving only serves to confuse people as to the
real issues at stake. DFR and other hip people wonder how long will lack of
ability to think in non-financial terms bar us from the solving of our social
problems. So begin checking out this plan for the solving of major social
problems now.
