How to Solve Every "Big Issue" in One Year.

Pick a smaller font, it's really annoying. This seems to be an opening for totalitarian systems. Your plan is to put everyone out of a job, take all their technology and then say; well you don't have to join if you don't want to. I'll assume since you actually replied that you're not a troll. 0; Since you plan to use a virus to secretly monitor everyone on Earth, you violate their rights to privacy and many people will outright refuse to allow their products to be hacked in such a way. You will have a whistleblower very soon since the NSA scandal about monitoring is still fresh. You may say that you're not giving anyone a choice, but you are asking every other country in the world to wage war with America for spying on them again. On EMPs, you must realize that they aren't specific. You might as well say; hey, why don't we just make a bomb that only kills terrorists? They're bombs, some are even nuclear. http://science.howstuffworks.com... If people stop using their tech online because of a virus, and you plan to EMP everything that isn't online, then you'll have to EMP civilian towns. The real problem is every other country. If you are using nuclear EMPs, then what's stopping Russia or China or any of the many countries who have nukes refusing to be part of this society, after all, you did just try to EMP them. http://en.wikipedia.org... There is no "theory" of mutually assured destruction. Using an EMP would threaten any kind of peace left in the world. And finally on point 0, If you fry the financial databanks, who will make your houses and dams and solar panels? They're not going to do it for free, and definitely not after you fried their financial savings. You now have no workforce and a nuclear war on your hands. 1; Since your first point was a virus, I assumed you meant landmines. Well there are a lot of mines in the world. http://www.mining-journal.com... A lot. Since you have no workforce because you have erased money from the world, who will work in them? If you take over every mine, then how will the people in the towns reliant on mining manage to earn a living? And how do you automate a mine? Robots still haven't quite gotten around rough terrains and can't distinguish between different metals in the rocks nor can they carry them. You need human labor in these cases. 2; You have assumed that step one has gone ahead correctly, meaning this is the proper order that you plan on putting them in. Cost is of no consequence, but the renewable farms have to be built first, and you fried the financial databanks. 3; The renewable farms have t be built first. 4; Frying every trace of military tech is impossible when you consider that EMPs are nuclear weapons, and the already listed nuclear countries will take your actions as an attack. Destroying mainland tech makes no difference when nuclear submarines are owned by most nuclear states. http://en.wikipedia.org... 5; This process requires your previous points to have been successful, but those points lead to WW3 and/or totalitarian communism, where people are forced to work but receive no payment. 6; If America does this, or any other country for that matter, they will provoke their enemies into war. You see how many nuclear countries there are, it only takes one to start the nuclear war. Probably North Korea. 7; I see now. This is an odd analogy, but I'm going to make a system I call the Star Trek Syndrome, we'll call it STS. In the Star Trek universe, no one has to work anymore. Clean energy, food et cetera is available to all. But what's never brought up is how no art is ever seen either. No music, or films, nothing. That's the problem with your society. No one has an incentive to do anything anymore. What about when the renewable farms need repairs? If you are prepared for hundreds of years of energy, then no one will bother going to school in the meantime since they don't even have to work, and even if they get a basic education, who'll bother going to university, and who'll run the universities? And hey, while no one goes to school, who'll fix those renewable farms? No one has the qualifications to work them anymore. It doesn't just end up like Star Trek's lazy population, it ends up like Idiocracy's commercially stupid population. 50% of people making food isn't pathetic since 100% of people to a rounding error need to eat food or they'll die. And we weren't made for greater things. Challenge me with a personal debate when this one is over if you disagree. We weren't made by anyone, so we decide our own purpose and destiny. And soylent green will never taste as good as normal food. It's an end to pleasure, this system. Just effortless survival, for nothing. 9; The structure of the houses isn't the problem, the destruction of the electrical wiring is the issue. Speaking of more dystopian future novels, ever read Fahrenheit 451? It's about a future where books are banned for the knowledge they contain, and the houses are fireproofed, so if they suspect someone of owning books, they burn the house. The same seems to apply for your world, execept with technology and EMPs. If you wipe out the financial grid then no one will use the printers since they're not being paid for it. 11; How do you plan to find every vehicle in the world and put sensors in them? A black market will begin to remove them for people, and you won't be able to find vehicles that don't have one because you can't find them. Sides, no one will use cars if they don't have work. 12; You may say that, but everyone has something to hide. You'll have a hard time making people give up their internet history. And no one will bother making anything for the computers since they're not getting paid for it. Overall, your plan forgets that people don't work for free, and society doesn't function unless there's an incentive. Your system is a failure. But I'd expect that from someone who can't count to thirteen. See you next round, Duncan.
