Capitalism, Socialism, Fascism, Communism, the Free-Market .... What good are these approaches for? These attempts are made by men who are cerebral insufficient. I'm trying to give you back your brain, which they took away from you in schools and in your upbringing. I'm trying to show you how the world works. So if you want a better world, you have to get up off your ass and make it better
Jacque FrescoWhen somebody asks, 'Whats the answer to all of these questions?' that's absurd. There is no answer, there are answers, along the way.
Jacque FrescoI asked myself, 'How are you going to change all these people, they have different values, different customs, different language, different interpretations?' So thatโs the time I joined the Ku Klux Klan in Miami. The reason I joined is to see if I could change them. So I dissolved that organization in a month-and-a-half, alone. [Applause] Then I joined the White Citizen Council. The WCC hates foreigners โ all foreigners. So I joined that organization; I dissolved it in one month.
Jacque FrescoThe fact that cultures are failing all over the world means that they don't know how to operate a society to make it work. Politicians have no real knowledge of technology; therefore, they are not capable of increasing food production, designing transportations systems that are safeโฆ They have no knowledge in that area. Therefore it's senseless to talk to them about anything of significance.
Jacque FrescoOnce you accept the fact that people have 'individual choices' and they're 'free' to make those choices. Free to make choices means without being influenced and I can't understand that at all. All of us are influenced in all our choices by the culture we live in, by our parents, and by the values that dominate. So, we're influenced. So there can't be free choices.
