the one percent problem destroying the
earth how do you have heard of the one
percent so both of you have heard the
one percent of course there’s a
ninety-nine percent I’m going to be
talking about that how many of you have
heard of the term of civilization we are
so of a I’m going to be talking about
civilization civilization is actually a
giant machine that destroys nature how
we have heard of climate change and
global warming okay a fewer peel some of
you have heard yet but which is okay and
how you have heard that we are in a
long-term economic job crises in the
United States okay then I’ll talk a
little bit about that while we’re there
alright so let me just say that the one
percent is simply a handle for
describing the people who govern the
world and the United States they are the
rich and powerful and they have changed
form throughout history initially when i
first rose they were the kings the
warrior go holes in the high priests and
they rule the world with those positions
when camels have came in the greek
merchants or through them and took over
government portal republic that no more
games the horn ability no more state
church we are in control the one percent
today are the rigid powerful who take
the greater largest profits and leave us
by each other for its level one percent
is create civilization and i’ll talk to
you but what is civilization
civilization is simply our urban bay
society cities are the power center
another one percent and that’s where
they gather us all up to the right
services from us at all levels of the
social
structure sublimation leads great
monuments that not easily intimidated
but the most thing about civilization is
it’s the enemy of nature why because
civilization draws huge amounts of
natural energy from the earth and
returns very little in terms of how you
heal here we have giant art stuffs and
we have very efficient sewage systems
that what else can we return to the
earth so there’s a factor there in which
I I would talk about the myth of
modernity that you know civilization is
great i’m having from opposite ear
civilization and one percent create
massive poverty that in order to have
all that well they gotta take it from
someone for example just think about how
a profiteer tries to lower your pay
every time to get a chance and so we
have world poverty but within the united
states would have a higher level of
wealth with this part of Harvey’s crush
there for the young people in this room
that presents a severe crises because
one of the things that i’ll talk about a
little bit later is I thought is that
the one percent created technology that
is now creating large numbers of
unemployed people why because they
replace them but also because it’s just
new systems that do not meet people at
war we in the United States are actually
overpopulated now not my India not Mike
Mexico but we do not have a quality jobs
to provide college graduates in fact
college graduates are paying the biggest
price because in my day I had from 65 to
83 I had 60 years of higher education
without pushing that’s where the good
people that they have how many years
they want to a school that should be
free tuition but instead they have to
pay for tuition you have to work all we
pay for it and he put on with an average
of thirty thousand dollars we’ve done so
young people day have to think about
massive industrialization first up what
we discover is how did the one percent
get its power the one person that is
power when we discovered agriculture
Agriculture’s of technology is not
natural it is a way to extract huge
amounts of energy from Earth that allow
it to grow the human population and that
allows the one percent to use the
ninety-nine percent I want to say that
this sounds very negative but literally
is domesticated animals because what
does the ninety-nine percent provide the
most of intermission is human labor
human labor they treat us like animals
with names that have enough intelligence
to follow their orders agriculture made
possible incredible advances of
technology the technology was used to
grow the wealth of one percent great
this was a good trade great exploitation
of Natural Resources industrialized
agriculture and distal I fighting it
does noise create should have buildings
everything and of course we do derive
great culture from this process I mean
you think of all the great artists all
music composers all the architects
everything that is wonderful about
humanity and celebrates the power that
you define the problem is that it is
comped a great cost so we are now in
what all the scientists agree
thirty-nine percent of the scientist
Greek have we are the verge of the sixth
extinction the first extension created
by humans and we go stop the machine
right now our children the grandchildren
are in for a lot of deep trouble so my
solution just here you are a heads up on
repetitive that we the ninety-nine
percent how to take control of the one
percent on our government of our own
future and we must of put in process of
metamorphosis that is so
transformational that we will not
recognize the society that we created
now I have a theory that this is just my
it’s just five digit you know I have us
even come up with a six course and they
have been very successful but one
percent created five courses they
created civilization and those smug
reports of the created civilization are
the same forces that are now destroying
number one unleashed individualism when
we were hot as it gatherers and living
from the land and just harvesting food
we were heavily controlled by a
communitarian ethic we have to cooperate
with each other in order to survive and
so anybody who violated the quantum
cooperative epic got expelled for
definite of your leader you wouldn’t be
an important person during the gathering
stage you actually have to sort with
community you have to be the best hunter
the best basket best ramen but as the
very thing that’s how you get leadership
you have to be the most intelligent and
no closer to the knowledge that you to
pay to the younger generation that’s
been speech should then the product is
what I would call the principle of
reciprocity you give to each other but
you also respect nature you also respect
nature you don’t accumulate huge amounts
of wealth you take only what you need at
a time and that was the practical
solution in which he did not have
refrigerators and the supermarkets and
all that other stuff so the hub meo to
go back though how did they get control
they took the great wealth from
agriculture it used it to beat the rest
of us and tell us what to do they became
our permanent importance they created
what I call the predatory state we are
taught to honor America we have talked
to honor our democracy we are taught to
think of it as becoming our major
identity should be our national identity
but God did not create the states that
we created the political state is a
machine created by the one percent to
control us about gluten so cereal
probably pressing it but as you know
I could have a positive message of PF
just their whipping through this night
if it is there a statement okay how
happens one person how does the
predatory state control as well number
one they can tell you they gave me to a
sermon Iraq and if you don’t you’re in
prison you can tell you that you can
have to take taxes and if you don’t
you’re in prison or in court unless
you’re Donald Trump the state has put
all the systems of paliza s and the
mobile police it has the State Police it
has become share the National Guard it
has the US Army now we have the hugest
it’s probably the biggest the army told
month security and then we have the FBI
CIA and other organizations that’s final
us that if we get out of line hey the
predatory state city go ok so the
predatory state serves the interests of
the one percent Liberator tab above be
cleaved by Pavel’s of the big made up of
money but the first capitalists were the
kings and warriors who gathered up all
the brain and all the production of the
husband’s any artisans in houston
defined the service of other people to
be fed to beat someone at the time was
to give them a bullet of money and so
they figure out how to get all the
circles and was unjustified because it
broke the communitary to happening that
we had when we were coming to see
gathers and we also in order to create
such bro we have to put the 99 person
will not be but the one percent at the
book the ninety-nine percent to work
creating all kinds of stuff they have to
be you know you can’t just let good
people food and money and say enjoy
yourselves he doesn’t make it work for
it right so this is the attitude other
one percent conquest ideology british
conquest ideology compost ideologists
simply any idea thanks that justifies
its rotation of other human beings and
of the earth for example of harvest
ideology
a major one and i was in Congress
Christianity Christianity is beautiful
at its core love God and love each other
Congress Christianity still be different
let’s go kill the Moslems is over saying
that and you know take back Jerusalem
let’s go and slay the veil Americans
because it’s not Christians if they’re
not Christian city they make devil
worshipers and Congress ideology this
beautiful twist to it in which hey I’m
conquering you but I’m doing you a favor
I’m bringing you the best religion in
the world of crystallization of the
world and today at a conference ideology
for us is the idea of democracy
beautiful idea like Christianity but is
it practice why do we have such low
voting patterns why do we think that the
rich control our government because we
are told that this is a democracy that
the people who’re hundred-odd are the
source of our political legitimacy but
then when we like people to represent us
who they truly represent so kind of a
psychology can come in many forms for
example men traditional been not good
like men in this audience how the
PacWest ideology that’s just my woman is
not been up to my intellectual level so
again I’m going to get booked papi wat
talk football winter with my
intellectual here’s an invite artists
ideology all over the place this upon
technology okay it was great it was
adapted to the best gates fire fire took
two million years let 61 million years
of cooking meat pork in great grew to
the size it was like the final energy
drink booze you know he keeps putting
this in a protein into the brain and it
grows and so we need to be fully human
that’s a technology that’s fine maybe
still points making cameras and other
stuff to survive a while to eating the
chances against wild animals that’s bear
in a hoodie gathering stage we rarely
active ecology to the point where all
the time about each of hundreds of
gathers are there stone tools in a few
caves or drawings but when we got out
there called dragon culture and we just
kept at the village level with
agriculture in every villain tennis pot
and we distributed the wealth we’ve been
done on vacation to conk food to fairs
etc because all the wealth would visitor
for us we could work you know just part
of the year but agriculture became a
manger waiting for the one percent to
grow the population control this grill
and then distribute the population of a
pod system of professionally trained
intellectuals of trained many workers
and the drones down at the bottom and
now as you know the weird Romans come
back into the harlots English language
and refers to a machine so this applied
technology has led to an incredible
pillow station of the world so my
conclusions odd without talking to this
theme is that modern civilization is the
enemy of nature that we do not produce
anything right now to nurture the earth
we’re only destroying it we are at
turning earth into a giant Factory which
is polluting here the earth and the
seeds and we are the most significant
act with that let me know it’s kind of
change I bet that most of you have
experienced something reapply the change
if you were here in August on honesty
leaven of 2014 you know that was a great
flood and most of the houses in my
neighborhood had to throw out all the
furniture of the basement it looked like
we all had been evicted by the same
landlord at the same time well if I they
are dug in and come over interscience a
choice Halloween from
and I even lost my car apply so yes here
is here what is the solution okay I was
great that the theme of this conference
is known for Moses because we have to
achieve an incredible metamorphosis in
who we are the ninety-nine percent can
we can stop the greed of the one percent
in reverse the process of but is now
becoming human self destruction if the
scientists predict what’s happening we
only have seven and a half billion
people on earth we’re headed for
absolute tops unsustainable top of nine
billion by 2050 but the disasters a
natural disasters that are coming are
going to wipe out several billion to
begin with it and we have to figure out
as a species so what is the nature of
the transformations that we have to
achieve number one is we have to decide
that what seems to be normal for us I
guess stuff seem to be normal for us has
to stop and we have to do we have to
produce the opposite of the five fourths
of that meeting of people off by for the
government on ideology that preaches
harmony feeling instead of destruction
most of all we have to create read
applied technology so that every job in
America in the world has to have that
component to it and those would all we
have to develop a consciousness as a
species that we are really the stewards
of the earth
