  1. The Pharmer’s Market Mark Gibson

  2. Product • Prescription Drugs • Pain Killers • Heart Medication • Asthma Medication • Anti-Depressants • Sleep Aid • Marijuana • Insulin

  3. Long Distance Transportation • High Speed Rail • Powered by electricity • Almost as fast as Maglev Train • Costs a lot less than Maglev to build • Thick metal walls provide adequate security • Refrigerated cars can be provided for perishable goods such as insulin or vaccines

  4. High Speed Rail Statistics • $35 million per mile (versus $100 million for Maglev) • Travel at least 110 mph (can go up to 361 mph) • 26 MJ/km energy efficiency (7.2 kWh/km) • Braking causes a considerable decrease in energy efficiency • 7.2 kWh/km = $0.97/km ($1.56/mi) • 41000 lbs (20.5 tons)(18600kg) weight bearing capacity

  5. Local Transportation • Electric Vans • Metal walls provide sufficient security • Electric vans eliminate the need for gasoline • Electric vehicles get sufficient range for local transport • The cost of charging an electric van is less than the cost of filling a van with gasoline

  6. Electric Car Statistics • 100 mile range • Less than 1 hour recharge time • About .63MJ/km (.175 kWh/km) • Easier to repair than combustion engines • Less moving parts in the engine than combustion engines (5 vs. 100+) • Less chance of explosion upon collision • .175 kWh/km = $0.023/km ($0.037/mi) • About 500 kg(1100 lbs.) weight bearing capacity
