Idealisms and Materialism

That makes sense. I would propose that we already have all the ideas. We can study and integrate ancient wisdom and modern technology to come up with an 'idea' that works. The challenge to me seems clearly to be the execution of that idea. In this sense, I make the claim that ideas are cheap execution is dear. That is the kind of entrepreneurial thinking that I evolved to over my decade or two of experimenting with creating tangible realities. With this said - do you not agree that we already have all the ideas of how to live right - and not only live right - but become trasnscendent? The missing link is execution: courage to act, and to manage resources effectively - based on proven knowhow and technology. The ideas we are not short on. We are short on the actual open source designs and blueprints to convert those ideas to working realities. As soon as a forwardthinking posse can attain this, the world can follow. The key is the collaborative mindset to bring this reality about. So maybe in the sense that the collaborative mindset is missing - that may be the idealism part that gets in the way of materialism of abundance?
