  8. Leaving the Planet on Abandon Earth Or Die, Warns Hawking · · Score: 1

    We could leave right now.

    Anything we put our minds to we can do, if we can get past tyranny, oppression and poverty. These will keep us from developing solutions to our problems of food, environment and the vast spaces that exist between worlds. Believe it or not, we can solve that problem as well.

    Like a parasite, these issues never seem to go away. Now however we have reached a very special point in our development. Tyranny can no longer be outrun. We can no longer flee to a far away place. Oppression now encompasses the globe now that the last republic of the free has fallen. Tyranny with its Death Grip on our future, it seeks to reward us with poverty and the inevitable outcomes it brings. War, hopelessness and our eventual destruction.

    For in these last days, we no longer fight with guns, battle groups or planes. We fight with the power of the Universe and the ability to hurl it like a thunder bolt across the heavens to bring destruction on every living thing on this earth. Blazing like a thousand suns and turning everything to ash in a single afternoon.

    Evil people plan war for their own ends as the populations of this world, already weary with the endless fighting now must endure the final war that will end all wars.

    There will be no place to go, no place to hide. Even the rich and powerful, who even now plan for it by building seed vaults to replant on the ashes of the dead and build earnestly their vast underground cities, will not escape this destruction. Revenge and Justice are also human ideals, and many will seek justice and seek them out.

    No we must change. Leaving the planet is a simple matter of wishing to do so. Unlocking the entire Universe and its resources to everyone will finally end tyranny and the power of the few.

    It begins with one individual that looks out among the vast humanity suffering on our globe and decides it is time to change.

    It will take courage. It will take Faith. It will take all of those things that human beings seek to possess but do not have in this age: Love, Kindness, Knowledge and Wisdom.

    Who out there has just one of these qualities let alone all?

    Part of this energy problem is socieconomic. Virtually no one is discussing the obvious problem of cenralizing power.

    What should be happening is every home should have its own power system, and should be self sufficient, connected to a grid which can resell excess energy per household back to the grid for use.

    The idea of central authorities controlling all the power of whole regions is economically as well as politically dangerous.

    For example, lets talk about Obama's terrorist boogieman. What is easier to pick off, central power plants owned by a wealthy few? Or everyone's home self sufficient which provides its own energy with no one point to attack?

    Our own socieconomic models are designed for the military industrial complex to provide a reason for its existence.

    Technology could be developed to provide homes that generate all the energy they require, but it is being denied due to these and other facts which would destroy the wealthy's power structure so it cannot be permitted.

    I think as far as the standard model is concerned, and you have to realize we are talking about just a particular form of matter called the proton really, 4% is probably not earth shattering.
