People want a solution to the environmental, oil and poverty issues of this planet. There is enormous support for any technology that helps resolve those problems.
Once mass support is in place, you would have people rioting and burning down Washington before you could let the patent office issue a Section 181 to seize the technology!
When Ted Koppel invited me on "Nightline" if we finally identify a legitimate free energy device, I said, "I'll come on your show and tear any secrecy order up in front of millions of people if you'll let me."
He looked at me -- this is face-to-face with Ted Koppel and said "I will." No amount of money and no threat is going to stop us from doing what is right.
We cannot have the good future that awaits humanity without technologies that take us off fossil fuels and nuclear power. Therefore it is worth doing what we need to do to secure these technologies for peace- ful applications and not allow them to be weaponized.
This is a completely achievable objective.
The secrecy and ruthless suppression of these technologies is related to power. If you are doing something where you are impacting a five- or six-trillion dollar part of the world economy, and it is the core operating paradigm of the world economy, it is a significant issue.
Many people don't know that one of the key areas of concern at the National Security Council of the United States is economic national security. One of the witnesses that I am working with worked under an admiral who was in charge of the Office of Naval Research. This Admiral at a meeting said, point blank, "My chief job is maintaining the status quo of the world's energy supplies and grid."
Because imagine this: We come out with these technologies, and the billion people in Latin America or sub-Sahara Africa, or the 1.1 billion people in India or the billion and one-half or two billion in Asia would have the ability to have a device in every village that would generate all the energy they would need for clean water, electrification, refrigeration, transportation, light manufacturing - without pollution, and without any cost for the energy itself. The device would be no more expensive to pro- duce than a generator.
You would have an enormous uplifting of the masses of the world's population that are now living in mind-boggling poverty.
We forget that there's only about 20 percent of the world's population that is
living with anything resembling modern conveniences and modern technology. The other 80 percent are barely half a step out of the jungle, if that.
So in that setting, we have a world of increasing crises, increasing anger at the West, increasing likelihood of war and terrorism. But when these technologies come out, this is the tide that will lift all ships. It is really good news - unless you own a trillion-dollar oilfield.
What happens when billions of people in India, Sub-Sahara Africa, Latin American and Asia begin to have a level of economic activity that surpasses that of America and Europe?
Suddenly, you have the biggest geopolitical power shift in the history of the world, where the 'great white father' is no longer the only one on the plantation making decisions. And the truth is, this speaks to the heart of the fascist fears within some of the control elements: Once free energy is available to the world, these interests would have to actually share power with people who are from other continents, other races, other cultures. Geopolitical power doesn't flow from the size of your population-it flows from your economic clout!
If population alone determined world power, the most powerful countries in the world would be India and China, and they are not. Power flows from your technological and economic prowess, and result- ing military power -- that and that alone.
The Soviet Union fell apart because its economic prowess was bankrupt. And now the lone superpower in the world is the United States.
And yet, humanity could have manufacturing, with no pollution, recycling 100 percent of all waste, energy for electrification and transportation without pollution—all with no cost for the energy itself. There would be no need for a multi- trillion dollar electric grid system that India and much of the world lacks, and which they do not have the financial resources to create.
These new free energy technologies would grow the world economy from a $30 trillion per year economy to a hundred or two hundred tril- lion dollar economy.
However, most of that growth would be outside of America and Europe, which together only has 600 million people. The world has ten times that number: six billion.
This would cause the biggest shift in geopolitical power in the history of the human race. And it would be fairly sudden: 10-20 years - at the most 50 years.
This is one of the key reasons for the secrecy. Such secrecy is deeply rooted in power issues, and unfortunately also has a rather ugly racist undertone to it.
The old adage, "If you want peace, work for justice" is quite apt here. It is very hard to have justice in the world when a very small number of people are using up
all the world's resources, while the vast majority live in mind-numbing poverty.
In order to change that dynamic, these technologies must come out. Once they do, the world will grow for all its peoples.
So this is the big question: Are we willing to create a world that's just and abundant for all of its citizens and really share power in the world? Are we willing to put a seat at the geopolitical table for all peoples?
So far the answer has been no to this good future. It is time we say yes. Growth will be stunning and rapid in regions of the world long withheld from progress. It is similar to areas that have bypassed a hundred years of development of linear phone lines, and gone directly to satellite phones and cell phones.
On a much more fundamental and profound level, these regions of the world will skip over 150 years of smokestack industrial revolution, and go directly to point-of-site power generation without transmission wires, and without the need for fuels or expensive infrastructure.
So they will quickly become industrialized, but without pollution. And with that will come enormous economic activity, technological developments and geopolitical power.
Such a change in how we generate energy will cause a decentralization of power, literally and figuratively. Power generation will be decentralized, but so will power politics. Every village will begin to be self-sufficient, thus minimizing centralized control. Once you understand these technologies, you understand that they will be able to generate the energy needs of the local area and all transportation and manufacturing needs. And the more developed applications of these sciences allow for the manifestation of any material object needed in the local area.
So it will be an enormous revolution in the material fortunes of the earth.
We are coming out of an era where people have been clubbing each other over the head over a scrap of land or a piece of gold -this is a whole new paradigm.
But this new paradigm washes away the need for central, clandestine secret societies, centralized banking and excessive central control.
We will be unified and integrated as a world civilization, but there will be a concomitant increase in empowerment at the local level.
On the one hand, we will become increasingly integrated as a global village because of instant global communications and transportation. Travel from one continent to another will be extremely fast using these new anti-gravity propulsion systems.
And yet on the other hand, the level of self-sufficiency and empowerment will be centered primarily at the local, village, and neighborhood level.
These twin paradoxical processes of increasing empowerment at the village or local level, and increasing integration of the global community will occur simultaneously. It's a new world completely.
I'm reminded of the REM song: "It's the end of the world as we know it, but I feel fine!"
As wonderful as this global transformation is for the masses of humanity, and for the earth, it is a worst-case scenario for the very elite people who want to stay firmly in control of the world. Because when you decentralize power generation and economic activity, you also decentralize this top-heavy kleptocracy currently running the planet.
