The world is like a ride in an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it you think it’s real because that’s how powerful our minds are. Coleman-Zachs INVESTMENT BANK The ride goes up and down, around and around. DAVID ZACHS - CEO It has thrills and chills, and it’s very brightly coloured, and it’s very loud, and it’s fun for a while. Many people have been on the ride a long time, and they begin to wonder… David: Is this real, or is this just a ride? And other people have remembered, and they come back to us and say… YouTube Bill Hicks - Revelations Bill: Hey, don’t worry. Don’t be afraid, ever. Because this is just a ride. And we… …kill those people. Coleman: SHUT HIM UP! I’ve got a lot invested in this ride. Shut him up! Coleman: Look at my furrows of worry! Coleman-Zachs “Look at my big bank account, and my family.” THIS HAS TO BE REAL! It’s just a ride, but we always kill the good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok. LEHMAN BROTHERS CITI LLOYDS BANKING GROUP CREDIT SWISSE JPMorganChase But it doesn’t matter, because it’s just a ride. And we can change it any time we want. ! It’s only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings of money. Just a simple choice. Right now… Coleman-Zachs INVESTMENT BANK …between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, but guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love instead see all of us as one. Here’s what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. ZACHS FOUNDATION Take all that money we spend on weapons and defenses each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world… ZACHS FOUNDATION STAGE ONE FOOD DISTRIBUTION STAGE TWO HOUSING & INFRASTRUCTURE STAGE THREE FREE EDUCATION …which it would pay for many times over, not one human being excluded. TIME PERSON OF THE DECADE And we could explore space together… CLAP CLAP CLAP …both inner and outer… …forever… …in peace. - Bill Hicks

Where is this Utopia you write of?

This “Utopia” could well become true, if everybody wanted it to be. We design the ride.

Hicks is crazy and cannot do basic math. Nor does he understand how money is siphoned off by overhead in charities and government programs. The housing aspect alone could not be paid for by the combined earthly defense budgets. And what happens when someone decides not to play by the rules? If there’s one thing humans are good at, it is making, then breaking, rules..“Those who beat their swords into plowshares, shall plow at the orders of those who did not.”

If you make the simplest of rules, there will always be someone who decides that it does not apply to them.Rules are only for those people that want and need to be ruled.

Nice thought but not reality now or ever.

Great quote well illustrated. Pity it had to be spoiled by a bunch of saber-rattling cretins who either never saw war (see Kennedy’s reply to “White Horse” Dealy), or driven into a more or less functioning dimentia by it.
