[ExI] Finally!

[Brent Allsop]

Extropians,

Obviously, even if there is one billionaire he can't do much alone.  
It's all about building consensus, finding out how many people share a 
desire to do these kinds of things, and then working together.  If we 
can do that, it's already easy, there is plenty of money to go around.  
Many hands make light work and make all things easy.

Forcefully taxing government needs to focus on the minimum 'safety nets' 
for all people and such, but that shouldn't stop the rich from freely 
reaching for the stars.  All that's needed is the ability to build 
consensus and better organize and co-operate, since lonely people can do 
nothing by themselves, even if the do have billions.

You know, kind of like we do with the consensus building, leaderless 
system at canonizer.com.  What is the most important things you'd like 
to be working on?  canonizer.com/topic.asp/90

The only hard part is knowing, concisely and quantitatively what 
everyone wants.  There are enough rich people now so that getting it is 
very easy, if we can just find better ways to co-operate.
