This whole idea is just based on a poor understanding of how the brain works. Saying we only use 10% of our brain is like saying we're only using 10% of our car when we drive.
The brain isn't just a homogenous mass of cells that all do everything. Rather, different sections of the brain are responsible for different types of activities, and are active or inactive dependent on what stimulus is received and what output is required. The sections operate more or less discretely (with bleed into other areas due to the organic nature of the brain), and that's generally a very good thing - if you want to see what happens when you use 'more than 10%' of your brain, look at someone who has autism - one of the primary problems with autistic brain development is over-connectivity of different regions. It would be like your windshield wipers coming on every time you put the car in drive, or the radio switching stations (do people still listen to the radio?) whenever you use the left turn signal (do people still use turn signals?). The reason we don't use all of our brain all the time is because we don't need to, and it would be awful if we did.

What do you do when you need to make a trip in to a town to buy groceries and other supplies? Do you arrange for 3rd party transportation?
What about in medical emergencies? Do you have a plan in place for what happens if someone gets bitten by a poisonous snake, has a heart attack etc?

That is a remarkably round about way to say that you don't understand economics or politics.

Have you seen/heard Shatner's cover of Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds? If not, you should. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AB3uVARNhmM
Honestly, everything off the Transformed Man is awesome.
