OMG! I was asked to appear on The Colbert Report! I was posting about<br />

<strong>the</strong> abundance paradigm, <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> path to get <strong>the</strong>re, what to expect <strong>and</strong> all –<br />

posting all that on <strong>the</strong> Colbert Nation forum, <strong>and</strong> it seems that Stephen<br />

Colbert himself became intrigued! He offered me <strong>the</strong> Colbert Bump!<br />

I will be flown to NYC – still unclear when exactly – to prepare for <strong>and</strong><br />

appear on his show! I am so excited!<br />

“Ah, yes!” Lee exclaimed. “That was what really got <strong>the</strong> ball rolling.”<br />

I nodded, “Yep. That episode is a classic. Bless Stephen for having <strong>the</strong> sight to see what<br />

it all meant!”<br />

One question I get a lot about <strong>the</strong> abundance paradigm is, “What about<br />

lazy people?” I ask, What about <strong>the</strong>m? If <strong>the</strong>ir bliss is to be a couch<br />

potato, <strong>and</strong> since <strong>the</strong>ir work is not needed <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong>y are no drain on <strong>the</strong><br />

system, just leave <strong>the</strong>m be! Get on with your own life. But I also point<br />

out that most people are lazy out of boredom, being unable to afford to do<br />

what <strong>the</strong>y really want to do (race cars, climb mountains, create stained<br />

glass art, teach children, scuba dive in Barbados, play video games, create<br />

video games, go to amusement parks, design amusement park rides, start a<br />

b<strong>and</strong>, research for cures, underst<strong>and</strong> particle physics, coordinate affairs,<br />

attend affairs, write useful programs, improve programs – whatever a<br />

person might take <strong>the</strong>ir bliss from).<br />

So “laziness” will be a temporary condition for nearly all. When <strong>the</strong>re is<br />

abundance, <strong>the</strong>re is also no such thing as laziness.<br />

O<strong>the</strong>rs object, “But that costs money! How will we get <strong>the</strong> money?”<br />

I ask <strong>the</strong>m how much R&D 700 billion dollars might afford. Given that in<br />

this country we are “bailing out” <strong>the</strong> Lizard Hearted at incredible sums,<br />

why don’t we instead bail out humanity from <strong>the</strong> heretofore unassailable<br />

scarcity, poverty, hunger <strong>and</strong> humiliation we have been resourcefully kept<br />

within?<br />

Why not spend <strong>the</strong> money to rid our world of money, instead of setting<br />

ourselves up for hyperinflation, <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong>reby economic collapse. <strong>For</strong> that<br />

is what we are doing.<br />

Right now in history we can finally rid ourselves of all barriers to realizing<br />

each individual’s potential. Why don’t we do what it takes?
