Once 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.

More From Jacque Fresco

A free culture supports and protects creators and innovators. it does this directly by granting intellectual property rights. but it does so indirectly by limiting the reach of those rights, to guarantee that follow-on creators and innovators remain as free as possible from the control of the past. a free culture is not a culture without property, just as a free market is not a market in which everything is free. the opposite of a free culture is a "permission culture" -- a culture in which creators get to create only with the permission of the powerful, or of creators from the past.

Faith is precisely the paradox that the single individual as the single individual is higher than the universal, is justified before it, not as inferior to it but superior - yet in such a way, please note, that it is the single individual who, after being subordinate as the single individual to the universal, now by means of the universal becomes the single individual who as the single individual is superior, that the single individual as the single individual stands in an absolute relation to the absolute.

A culture that supports the dominance of social values over biological values is an absolutely superior culture to one that does not, and a culture that supports the dominance of intellectual values over social values is absolutely superior to one that does not.

Perhaps the most significant thing a person can know about himself is to understand his own system of values. almost every thing we do is a reflection of our own personal value system. what do we mean by values? our values are what we want out of life. no one is born with a set of values. except for our basic physiological needs such as air, water, and food, most of our values are acquired after birth.

A free culture is not a culture without property; it is not a culture in which artists don't get paid. a culture without property, or in which creators can't get paid, is anarchy, not freedom. anarchy is not what i advance here. instead, the free culture that i defend in this book is a balance between anarchy and control.
