Can animals live where they please? No.
And just look at how "poorly managed" nature is! That stupid starving lion could work together with the other stupid starving lions and have all the food they could ever want! What a putz!
For the OP, this has become a personal religious issue. The OP has made it clear that he/she is right because of a lot of pseudo-scientific mumbo-jumbo and evidence to the contrary be damned because it is all the work of evil forces trying to suppress humanity.
Why should someone even read the "book" if they don't agree with the free energy nuts and don't believe that evil imaginary lizard people are suppressing all this remarkable technology?
This thread is akin to someone telling us that they figured out a way to cure all types of cancer. Then the first suggestion is, "First, you have to allow the Tooth-Bunny to enter into your life", and perhaps make a small donation.
How is that any solution? How do you ensure transparency? How do you restrict people of a like mind from meeting in private and working together to ensure a competitive advantage for their set of genes?
You simply can't. Because neither you nor I, (nor the governments) have any control over peoples' thoughts and associations.
Since your perfect utopia is endangered by a handful of people simply organizing tightly to confer upon their offspring a breeding advantage, it will fail utterly and spectacularly in short order.
Despite what you may believe, you still haven't discovered a magical cure for the "human condition."

A lion would NEVER kill more than he needs for himself & his cubs.
Ridiculing the author will not get humanity to the next fase of civilization.
First of all: you can cure all cancer by electrifying your blood.
You are the worst kind of slave because you think you are free.
we will start building GeoThermal factories and farming robots. You do not even need "free energy".
No sane person can, after studying "The Venus Project" or "Future by design", uphold that our current society is preferred to the one we need to work towards.

I really enjoyed your book and love your vision for the future. Thank you for offering it to us all free of charge, if I had anything to give to help you I certainly would give it.
I wonder, have you contacted Robert Morning Sky? I emailed him through his website a few months ago and actually received a very thoughtful personalized response, although I was expecting an automated message saying "Thank you for your interest, please purchase my books for answers to your questions". He was very kind and genuine.
You are an excellent writer, to be sure. I began freelance writing a year ago and was fortunate enough to get a great on-going, long-term project related to "conspiracies". If you need another source of income (and have time for it), I'd love to talk to you about what I do and, if you're interested, I think I could put in a word for you with my employers.
Please feel free to U2U me, Amaterasu.

First, thank you for your kind words. I appreciate them greatly.
I have tried several times to contact the Venus Project since I wrote my book... But have never gotten a single response back. Very disheartening.
I would love to communicate with them, but so far it has failed.

Guess I need to start my own movement with real people if that is the case.
