In the site's FAQs -
Q: What do I get if my idea is chosen?
A: You get good karma and the satisfaction of knowing that your idea might truly help a lot of people.
I don't think you actually receive money for winning. Maybe somebody could clarify if they think otherwise.

You have an idea to help others. Google give the money to do it. But you never get the money.
But I support idea from Hoopy about beer. We are poors and need daily beer to survive.
Google !!!! Please!!!! Help us!!!!:givemebeer:

1. No borders
2. One world government
3. Three common languages
Sound silly? Point number one - if there were no borders and no chance of persecution or gunfire if you enetered a third world country...how long do you think it would take for western entrepreneurs to build proper irrigation, plant crops particular to that climate, build homes, resorts etc....? How long before communities and schools were being built?
How long before immigration was no longer a problem? Those that jumped the fence 20 years earlier would return to their homeland. Sound silly? - Of course it does, it's freaking insane...but a nice thought.

I agree largely with what you say. The only one I am not keen on is no.2 - I would prefer to decentralise control.

If people could begin to live in harmony with each other then that would be a good beginning for the future of mankind.
