@theprofits13 Learn Entrepreneurship! Textbooks, classes, videos. “Entrepreneurs look to make value regardless of the resources currently controlled.” Reckon of yourself more as a manager, bringing together all the necessary ingredients and components into a gorgeous harmony :]. Or, if you have a excellent thought give it to a trusted entrepreneur/affair veteran and draft a rough affair plot.
1:28 HOLY$HIT it’s Samuel L Jackson!
Right; not Harvard, but $60k is quite close to sending one to Sarah Lawrence Institution even if. (It’s the most expensive University in the US!)

Fascinating and inspiring talk. I wish she slowed down a bit.
@TheLostSniper47
JUST about to say the same!
End the war on drugs, End the war on Americans.

Wow, these are some fine thoughts.

@kaminarigaston trying to pull shape out of struggle club? haha but seriously.. way to miss the point of the bee-line experiment
@Shaunt1 Yes they are!
@ohsocreamy
I didn’t watch the movie (nor read the book). People spoiled the end for me. Anyway, I DO get the point, it’s just that… why do we always have to have our donuts laced with poo? Couldn’t they make something usefull like, I don’t know, RAKES? People really have a use for rakes, you can step on them and have a comedic moment and whatnot. But skincare products from bees? I bet that they use propoleum or royal jelly and other crap that doesn’t do shit. It’s a scam.
A gutsy top-flight TED talk.
How sad that Judy Bonds’ life proves the need for her cause.
Our cause.
@theprofits13 boy you are an American, don’t complain about your problems, fix them!
@Jointi5 Oh trust i will one day but today I am limited.
@bavwill So right.
4%, that does not mean that much… either, they haven’t been caught, they were so impressed by the one-time workshop they had or they do not want to return to the place where you’re locked up in a filthy cabin with murderers… hmmm.
like
@painmaker300 ? 4% is the digit that went back to jail, not the digit that didn’t return…
I like the way she started without beating around the bush. Straight to the point with examples!
What a fantastic talk! Give a man a fish… @14:31
there is a root cause of all these problems that not being addressed – its the monetary system – the answer is not jobs that can be done by robots – but a resource based economy -abundance and self-rule for all -see the zietgiest addendum and zietgiest moving forward to know the problems fully and the solutions – i dont reckon projects like these can use 15 million who want jobs and 15 million who given up and solve the debt and poverty around the world
GO GREEN!
