Free time was the reward to everyone - to live, thrive, and be creative. The machinery did all the work, that communities owned.

Libraries lent out everything that no one really need to have their own copy of, including tools, and such.

This, as any forward-thinking sincere vision, had utopian elements to it, not to mention, "socialist" qualities that gave all those consumed by corporate zero sum mental afflictions, all they needed to shoot it down, and keep it down.

The movie "Zeitgeist, Moving Forward" did a great job explaining Fresco's vision, where referring to modern world ways, he said "This shit's gotta end."

But it hasn't, and it never will. We have enough evidence of that, and it just keeps piling up.

The game is over.
