56:20 Well, it's a really important point. And I did a blog on this recently and I've been in contact with Peter Joseph and some of the other people from the Zeitgeist Movement because I really admire so much of what they've done that it has just been a huge wake-up call to the planet, that series of movies and movement. It turns out that this is one area getting rid of money that I am not in alignment with their approach Because I think that the problem is not money. The problem is dishonest money, and you know, I've invited some of them whom I've talked to recently to just start using no money anytime they want and see how it goes. So if you need a program for your computer or a new computer and you're living in the fields of Kansas and what you got is a lot of corn and cows
57:17 And you try to affect that trade with someone from somewhere else on the planet who happens to have made just the program or the hardware that you need, good luck in accomplishing that. There's a lot of inconveniences. We don't want to throw the baby out with the bathwater. A real honest monetary system is genuinely an honest a medium of exchange. So instead of having to trade cows for software programs, you can actually trade some sort of currency or you can trade some sort of credits or you can trade bitcoins or whatever you want to call it. You can trade puka shells but at least you've got some sort of medium that's mutually recognized that makes it a heck of lot more convenient. What I ask the people from the Zeitgeist Movement is
58:09 Is this whole notion of moving beyond money voluntary or mandatory? because if it's mandatory, and I have real concerns about that because they talk about these re-education camps and so forth. Well you know that's what the Nazis talked about. That's what the US government did to the Japanese and so forth. That's scary stuff to me. And fortunately they have assured me some of them recently but no all of that in the circular city planning all messed up. That would all be voluntary with just being technical facilitation of progress I said, great. Then I'm all for it but the key word for me always is voluntary if somebody's trying to make me do something other than stop hurting someone else or taking their stuff then we've got the seeds of tyranny which have led us to the brink of destruction so i'm excited about
59:02 coordinating with movements like the Thrive Movement, because obviously there's tremendous potential for organization in the alignment of pre-existing groups. So one of things we're working on with The Solutions Hub is developing a protocol where groups can interact and share information without ever having to give up their own moral philosophy or the trust of their own Internet network because anyone who has a large following has developed that because people are aligned with their philosophy and they trust their behavior. So nobody wants to give that up, so you don't want to be forced to share information that you don't believe in. One of things we're doing is encouraging groups
59:49 to coordinate in networks, but then have the coordinators of the groups be able to gate any particular information that gets sent out. So if somebody sends me something about they've got this wonderful idea for a solution and all it'll take is another trillion dollars in taxes that's now gonna be laid on the backs involuntarily of the people well I don't have any interest in sending that out to my group and I would let them know that but that doesn't mean that I couldn't coordinate with them on other projects. In our three-stage solution strategy that we lay out briefly in the movie but in much more depth on the website, there are really three tracks and the first track honors the best of the progressive movement which is basically using other people's money to be compassionate you know take care of people who've been most
1:00:37 screwed over by the system, and to provide subsidies to go back to organic farming and to provide health care to those who are so damaged that they are not in a place of prosperity where they can afford it. But that's all at transition stage. And the money doesn't come from creating new theft from people's wages. It comes from money that is now being spent on waging war that unnecessary interest to a corrupt Federal Reserve. There's enough money in doing just the reduction of those two things,
1:01:14 or the elimination of those two things, to not only restore health prosperity and the environment in the United States but literally all over the world. So that's phase one. Meanwhile, phase two, or track two is already in process and that's the shrinking down of this involuntary government to just the protection of human rights and the commons. So, a government isn't out there telling you what you have to do. Their only role is to protect you from being violated and to protect the wholeness of ecosystems in the same way."
1:01:51 And then finally, I believe that there will be so much success and prosperity and security and freedom as those two phases are going along that people will finally realize that there are independent non-authoritarian ways to solve all of these problems and handle all the different systems and so forth such that we'll end up growing beyond any need for involuntary taxation or involuntary authoritarian government. Yeah, I'm really interested in these areas that we have to just by force. We have to play by these rules. We have to go along with it You gotta pay your taxes and you have to do everything that they're telling you to do It's all because we feel like
