Utopia will remain static the moment it is made. Letting everyone into utopia is impossible. That is why it's so impractical, because utopia is for 'everyone'.
Not necessary, people will always be seperated.. The wealthy, the poverty-ravaged, the mature, the childish... I say the Venus Project sounds like a good dream. Because "if a dream becomes real then it wasn't a dream to begin with" right?
I would rather see the entirety of huamnity reach for the stars. This world is stagnanting and becoming more ugly and disgusting because of our continued 'refinement' of the world. Eventually it will become uninhabatable, even for us. Where will we be? Dying rapidly and painfully, Space Colonization might be way out there, even compared to The Venus Project, but it's also far more ambitious, as well.
If underwater cities ARE made, then it would be evident the ones that can pay for it are the ones that get to live there. Simple as that. Those stuck financially might as well have no future with The Venus Project, as we are just support, once it suceeds, then possibly more then half of the people would be stuck, still living on land. Not seeing the fruition of The Venus Project for themselves.
That isn't a flame(bait), it's a matter of opinion. Space is our best chance for survival, Earth won't last forever, truth enough - We've seen the effects starting to stack and grow.
Putting billions of dollars for a undersea city would be nice, but think about the future generations. They are more important then the current or past generation.
