TL;DR at bottom(In order of least important to most important- all are still important, however)1: Re-allocation of funds. A lot of movements such as Red for Ed wouldn’t need to exist if funds were properly allocated. Take for example the thousands of politicians in America, from Mayor to President. One of the few things they have in common is that they’re paid far too much (what I find funny is that if we go with Biden’s Tax Plan, he’d be taxing himself). The first thing I’d do as President is set up a system similar to the LDS(Mormon) Church, in which high church officials are only given a living allowance. Politicians don’t need a nice mansion or a super car. All they need are shelter, food, and water. Of course pay would vary depending on the Cost of Living in different areas, but the pay would match the cost of living and nothing else.2: Our constitution is nearly perfect. Emphasis on NEARLY. There’s still some way to go, and a lot of confusion; most especially with systems that are new, or rarely used. For example the impeachment of President Trump was a hot mess regardless of who you are. And this 2020 election, is also a hot mess regardless of who you are- and not just cause of Mail in ballots, but because not every state uses the same election system, and if they did, I think the election would be fairer and less confusing.3: Whether it’s on the Right or the Left, there is far too much radicalism in America. You have your Antifa Rioters, and your Proud Boys- who while they are NOT a white supremacist group, still present a problem. I would like to work with my Democrat Colleagues to get rid of these radicals.TL;DR:1: Re-allocate funds2: Polish up the government system3: Get rid of the radicals

If they do anything they will use a project financing model. If so, they are at the ‘pre-bid stage’ described below. This permits them to tap into the world’s financial markets for risk capital.World Wealth Report | Compare the data on a global scaleThere are 15.36 million High Net Worth Individuals who collectively have $58.7 trillion in liquid assets. That is assets that can readily be used to invest in risky projects.This $58.7 trillion (about 12.5% of all liquid wealth world wide) is routinely invested in market for risk capital throughout the world. Raising $100 billion amounts to $0.1 trillion - or 1/587th of this total. Since the turnover in the markets is several times this money each year, $0.1 trillion can be raised in as little as 90 days with the right project and structure. Project finance is the right structure.What is project finance?Project finance is the long-term financing of industrial projects based upon the projected cash flows of a project rather than the balance sheets of its sponsors.There are several parties in a project financing depending on the type and the scale of a project. The most usual parties to a project financing are;SponsorLendersOff-takersContractor and equipment supplierOperatorOthers that might be included but not as necessary as the previous five includeFinancial AdvisorsTechnical AdvisorsLegal AdvisorsEquity InvestorsRegulatory AgenciesMultilateral Agencies / Export Credit AgenciesInsurance ProvidersProject development is the process of preparing a new project for commercial operations. The process can be divided into three distinct phases:Pre-bid stageContract negotiation stageMoney-raising stageAn off-world elevator would be a pre-bid stage necessarily.A project to build a hyper loop, would also be pre-bid.By comparison, a project organised to buy a dozen fully reusable space launchers from SpaceX at $55 million each and operate them over 288 flights for the fleet, to make space power stations say, or a global wireless hotspot, using large numbers of appropriate satellites, would be able to enter contract negotiations rather quickly and quickly enter a money raising stage by comparison.Hence, the 2050 delivery date time frame.Careful attention to these details early-on make a difference later.Teledesic and Iridium both faltered at project financings because the EPC was not well crafted or well defined. Largely because the original sponsors, not being rocket scientists, bought the propaganda about commercial rocket launchers during the Reagan Administration without looking at the details closely.For example, Craig McCall and Bill Gates, in private communications indicated to me that they thought by ordering a large number of launches they could negotiate the price of launches down from current commercially advertised prices.I pointed out to them this was wrong.These very capable and bright people got it wrong because at the time (the 1990s) all commercial space launches were subsidised by the government as part ITAR, and so, Teledesic’s and Iridium’s demand for three times the usual launch rate would cause prices to increase, not decrease, as those subsidies were exhausted.Price rises would produce significant push back from other users who require the subsidised launches to operate.This mis-step was the reason Teledesic and Iridium were delayed and ultimately failed to reach their financial goals as terrestrial systems not having this difficulty were able to obtain monies needed to deploy wireless service in the same time frame.I was proposing the purchase of TRW’s space launch assets from Northrup at the time, and the construction of a TSTO-RLV using those assets. These later formed the basis of SpaceX (TRW’s pintle fed engines adapted to used SSME and RL10 that were no longer ‘man-rated’).Gates indicated to me that he thought the risk and cost of the network + the risk and cost of the launcher was greater than the risk and cost of the network alone. So, would never invest in new launcher technology.I replied that the risk of the network multiplied by the risk of the launcher was the resultant risk and the cost of both divided by that resultant risk was the ultimate current cost of the project.By NOT investing in lowering the true cost of space launch, they were guaranteeing failure. Another way to look at it, is that global wireless two way communications from space, was premature in 1990. SpaceX by building reusable launchers, and launching in months, not years, puts off-world sponsors in a position to be far more successful in the 2010–2020 time frame, than they ever could be in 1980–1990 time frame.SpaceX by doing all the right things, is also preparing the ground work to dominate the space launch business, and the markets for space launch in the decades to come. Just as the owners of rail roads also owned major tracts of forests and farmlands that their rail made possible, so too will SpaceX own a portion of all the assets and infrastructure it makes possible going forward.In short, all projects require an accurate engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contract to get underway and raise money. EPC provide the basis of a financial model for the project.An EPC contract generally provides for the obligation of the contractor to build and deliver the project facilities on a fixed price, turnkey basis, by a certain date, in accordance with certain specifications, and with certain performance warranties. The EPC contractor need sufficient experience and knowledge of the nature of project minimize the risks of contract execution.Basic contents of an EPC contract are:Description of the projectPriceAgain, the following are less important than the preceding, at the pre-bid stagePayment (typically by milestones)Completion dateCompletion guarantee and Liquidated Damages (LDs):Performance guarantee and LDsCap under LDsSo, we have a description of the project, what will it cost? $100 billion according to what you’ve said. Now, who will pay for it? Investors obviously, but why? That’s the root of the problem!Well, to understand how folks may get a return we have to have a financial model for that return. What do people spend money on on Earth and what can be done in space with a space elevator? What can a space elevator charge?https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/d402/ba5f97884b7398ae2a1ff79136f9c1a03993.pdfhttp://www.niac.usra.edu/files/studies/final_report/472Edwards.pdfThe cost of a space elevator ranges from $20 billion to $40 billion depending on contingencies (USD$ 1995) that’s $32.4 billion to $64.8 billion today, and accounts for the $100 billion by 2050.What is the capacity?Well, 20,000 tons every day. That’s it. It takes four days for a climber to climb the elevator, and you are able to run four at a time. You can also run 20,000 tons a day back from orbit, and use only a fraction of the energy required for one way movement of cargo from Earth.Immigration to Off World ColoniesWhat are these like? Bishop Rings - built by self-replicating machines from the body of asteroids like Ceres.At 10 people per ton this is 200,000 people per day per space elevator. A half dozen space elevators spaced 60 degrees apart along the equator, permit as many as 1.2 million people per day to leave Earth. These are lifted beyond GEO and released at the right location, right time and right direction, and make their way anywhere from Jupiter to Mercury with little to no added propellant. Earth’s population falls dramatically as AI and human level robots displace workers to support those who remain at very high income levels. Those who leave too will have high income levels as well.At $0.6 trillion and 20 year operating life, 8.7 billion people, thats a CAPEX of $68.44 per person. OPEX is something else. Annual cost of $0.6 trillion in capital at 8.5% discount rate over 20 years, for six elevators, is $63.4 billion per year. Divided by 438.4 million per year, is $144.65 per person.So, if we can show that people have the capacity and willingness to pay to leave Earth, in the numbers called for, we can sustain through market operations, investments on the scale needed.This radically changes the demographics of Earth’s population.Solar Power SatellitesSolar power satellites that use concentrators to focus sunlight onto solar pumped lasers, and beam laser energy back to Earth, or to photocells that produce high voltage electricity, that is then passed through the elevator back to users on the ground, provide revenue.Such satellites produce 22,000 Watts per kilogram continuously. So, 20,000 tons provide 440 GW power satellites. At 20,000 tons per day, this is $8.68 per kg using the earlier assumptions. That’s $0.39 per peak watt - less than the cost of coal fired plants! The recurring cost is less than $0.005 per kWh.Humanity uses 17,000 GW at present, and if all consumed energy at the same rate as the wealthiest of us, demand could rise to 65,000 GW and more. If all used automatic drones to fly at high subsonic speeds point to point, this could rise again to 325,000 GW. It takes one tower one month to displace all the energy needs of Earth, six months to meet all needs of a very wealthy planet, and two years to grow into a world where all live anywhere, work anywhere, and travel anywhere at a moment’s notice.Sold at $0.11 per kWh this represents a revenue stream of $1.6 trillion, $6.4 trillion and $32.0 trillion per year.Food SatellitesSpace Colony studies indicate that 500 tons per hectare are required to build a farm satellite and that 10 people can be supported per hectare. At 20,000 tons per day, 40 hectares to permanently supply 400 people with food, and process their waste, into food, without impacting the Earth at all, is possible. At this rate, it would take quite a while to displace all farming. Furthermore, it would take more capacity than first generation systems to support more than a few folks. Each tower would support 7.8 million people, if food were shipped whole. Dehydrating food and waste, removing 80% moisture, and rehydrating it on the farm, and on earth, increases this to 39 million per tower. Six towers support 234 millions.The point is, that once the tower system has depopulated Earth, those who remain can be fed by space colonies off world. Those colonies however, will not be lifted into place from Earth, but rather, sent from the moon, mars and asteroids, because its far easier to build the infrastructure and send it to Earth orbit.The Impact of Increased CapacityIncreasing strength 100 fold, increases flow rates 100 fold, and so, populations can be supported from the ground at that point - 3.9 billion to 23.4 billion persons on earth and the entire system built from terrestrial resources.A Practical Programme2018 Highly reusable space launch2023 Global wireless hotspot - $1.2 trillion per year (portion of profits used for R&D)2028 Early adopters off-world - 1 GW solar power satellite launched using rockets2030 Self-replicating machinery off world (from R&D)2035 Tether research - early deployment 200 tons per day (expand solar power satellite programme)2040 Power satellite programme - 4.4 GW per day launched on space elevator.2045 Expanded power satellite - 20,000 tons per day2050 Immigration programme (develop asteroids, and build Bishop Rings)-2055 Expanded power satellite -2,000,000 tons per day2060 Food satellite programme (import Bishop rings from Asteroids, connect to Earth’s surface - to supply 3.2 billion persons without any impact at all on earth)

Hardly.The top priorities were given by Jesus:36 Master, which is the great commandment in the law?37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.38 This is the first and great commandment.39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. Matthew 22We demonstrate our love for the Lord by doing His works and emulating His life of service:21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. John 14We demonstrate our love by helping our neighbors:17 And behold, I tell you these things that ye may learn wisdom; that ye may learn that when ye are in the service of your fellow beings ye are only in the service of your God. Mosiah 2We help our neighbors spiritually by sending the message of Jesus Christ to all the world; that He has returned and re-established His Church and that He has called Apostles and restored the authority to perform the ordinances necessary to salvation for both the living and the dead:10 Yea, let the cry go forth among all people: Awake and arise and go forth to meet the Bridegroom; behold and lo, the Bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. Prepare yourselves for the great day of the Lord. Doctrine and Covenants 133We consecrate years of our own lives in missionary service to spread the message that God’s House is a house of order and not a house of confusion. That prophets and new scriptures were not done away in Christ but are essential to following Christ. See, e.g. ScripturesWe are looking for those who are trying to find God—lifeguards in a sea that is growing increasingly rough:16 ¶ Behold, I will send for many fishers, saith the Lord, and they shall fish them; and after will I send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks. Jeremiah 16The world is getting more and more dangerous—spiritually and physically—so we raise a warning voice to all to will hear:50 Come, my brethren, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters; and he that hath no money, come buy and eat; yea, come buy wine and milk without money and without price. 2 Nephi 9And, we don’t stop at spiritual salvation for the living, we are building temples and have a massive family search project to find the names of those who are deceased in order to help them as well. Modern genealogy would not be the same without the investments of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints that are given freely to all. FamilySearch • Free Family Trees and Genealogy ArchivesWe believe that Elijah has come and restored the keys of the gathering of the righteous:5 ¶ Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord:6 And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse. Malachi 4We don’t stop at ordinances either. We have billions of dollars invested in a food supply chain that reaches every corner of the globe. What is a bishops' storehouse?If there are poor and needy, we are there partnering with other charities and learning how best to assist those who are suffering the effects of disastrous weather, crop failures, or even just personal financial distress. Through LDS Charities, the Church Does Humanitarian Work Around the WorldDuring my service as a bishop, I used these funds to help individuals in my ward weather their own personal financial storms—and I was only one of tens of thousands of bishops and Branch Presidents all with a checkbook sufficient to feed, house, and provide needed professional services when the labor of other members or food from the storehouse wasn’t exactly enough. We take care of the entire person.We put food on the table and then we will give you the Book of Mormon. The Lord Himself understood that the multitudes must be fed, but that some people are only interested in satisfying temporary physical appetites:26 Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled.27 Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.28 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. John 6Still, there is food in the House of the Lord—physical and spiritual. Are we now living, figuratively, in the years of famine that followed the years of plenty? As did Joseph of Egypt, The Church of Jesus Christ laid up resources in store during the years of plenty, in fact, we took some heat for saving against a time of need. That day of need is here:53 ¶ And the seven years of plenteousness, that was in the land of Egypt, were ended.54 And the seven years of dearth began to come, according as Joseph had said: and the dearth was in all lands; but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.55 And when all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread: and Pharaoh said unto all the Egyptians, Go unto Joseph; what he saith to you, do. Genesis 41Even the world’s own prophets, the scientists, predict doom and gloom in the future. Best to get one’s house in order, come to where there is safety. Board the ark, as it were, things are going to get bumpy. Come to the House of the Lord and obtain the blessings available only to those who have demonstrated that they will be faithful and honorable.So why do we listen to President Russell M. Nelson when he asks us to be clear about the name of the Church, or when he asks us to be thankful for what we have? Because he has both the right, duty and obligation to make the course corrections needed for our organization, which is tasked with helping all the world, not just its own members; hear him:Why do we care about seemingly small things such as using the correct name of the Church or being thankful? Because we know that Jesus is speaking directly to us through his prophets, just as Jesus has done from the days of Joseph Smith. If we obey the small things, we can learn the great things.To those who ask why, against all arguments, we defend this Church and its message and messengers? See above, we defend the Church because we love the Lord and love our neighbors—that is our primary objective and we need to help people get beyond the minutiae and see the real issues.10 Yea, let the cry go forth among all people: Awake and arise and go forth to meet the Bridegroom; behold and lo, the Bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. Prepare yourselves for the great day of the Lord.11 Watch, therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour.12 Let them, therefore, who are among the Gentiles flee unto Zion.13 And let them who be of Judah flee unto Jerusalem, unto the mountains of the Lord’s house.14 Go ye out from among the nations, even from Babylon, from the midst of wickedness, which is spiritual Babylon.15 But verily, thus saith the Lord, let not your flight be in haste, but let all things be prepared before you; and he that goeth, let him not look back lest sudden destruction shall come upon him.16 Hearken and hear, O ye inhabitants of the earth. Listen, ye elders of my church together, and hear the voice of the Lord; for he calleth upon all men, and he commandeth all men everywhere to repent.17 For behold, the Lord God hath sent forth the angel crying through the midst of heaven, saying: Prepare ye the way of the Lord, and make his paths straight, for the hour of his coming is nigh. Doctrine and Covenants 133All may be forgiven, unless you have seen God face-to-face, there is no sin or past act that the Lord will not or cannot forgive.Get a fresh start, live a good life, serve your neighbors, worship your God—be good.Talk to a friend who is a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and living the life—ask them why, how, what.If you don’t have any close friends who are members of the Church of Jesus Christ, find a missionary—they are the best we can send you, they are our sons and daughters.

Meet with Missionaries | ComeUntoChrist.orgBeing good is easy.Following God’s direction will make you happy in ways that nothing else can, but you need clear directions, not interpretations, not suppositions. When interpretation and judgment are necessary, you need someone with real authority who hasn’t taken the authority to themselves but who has received it from God. We all need to learn how to ask God Himself for the help and knowledge it takes to have the faith necessary to stay on this path so that our knowledge is independent of any historical fact or any learned opinion of those who cannot bring themselves to seek knowledge from the source but instead rely on hearsay and faulty evidence.7 ¶ Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.. . .13 ¶ Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Matthew 7Be one of the few who actually seek and you will find your God and Creator, who loves you with a perfect love and knows you by name. See, Isaiah 4368 Therefore, sanctify yourselves that your minds become single to God, and the days will come that you shall see him; for he will unveil his face unto you, and it shall be in his own time, and in his own way, and according to his own will. Doctrine and Covenants 88Taking the time to share this with you is my understanding of how I can demonstrate my understanding of God’s priorities, nothing else I do today is likely to eclipse in value the benefit to God if even one person reads this and decides to take a closer look. Moroni 10God’s top priority for members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is for us to keep the commandments, and right at the top of that list is loving our neighbor, which we do by bringing you the opportunity to come unto Christ.Light the World | Christmas 202081 Behold, I sent you out to testify and warn the people, and it becometh every man who hath been warned to warn his neighbor.82 Therefore, they are left without excuse, and their sins are upon their own heads.83 He that seeketh me early shall find me, and shall not be forsaken.
