as far as there being no place like america, i agree. (albeit maybe not for the same reasons and as a positive.) I have no hate for America, only disdain for policies that negatively affect people who are not citizens. This has absolutely 0 to do with the people of America (in general).
if sustainable exponential growth is indeed possible, i challenge you to find 1 instance of this happening in ANY country, at ANY time in history. Time travel is also possible. It just has never happened right?
I personally do not believe something to be possible until it has been proven and achieved at least once. |
well, if my senses are still in some form or another, alive, i did sense a bitter take on the situation on your behalf. it's all clear now, i agree, this is a 'crisis'. no need to debate that, a depression? if not handled correctly. while browsing through the web I found this:
"The money that rules us in Washington wants to reduce America to a third world country for easier control purposes. When they have removed us from our homes and we hit the streets as beggars we will be more vulnerable to arrest and detention centers which are already built and just waiting to be filled. We in America have had it too good for too long and soon it will all end in chaos! Thank God for that!"
Ok, now I have to read and look at that with pitty and some anxiety, because there is some romantic side to all of this, the whole 'this will end in chaos' business, 'depression2fast2furious', i mean all of those things 'may' occur, but, do you really think it will? you can't be that fatilistic, not now! what bothers me about america is it's tolerance for stupidity, everyone has an opinion and sometimes that person is not prepared to give a subtantial statement to back-up their views and it ends up with another alarming stupid post on the internet. free speech, go fuck yourself! too much freedom, too much freedom...
but, i'll tell you something and listen carefully. in all moments of crisis, there is always someone walking out with a fat check and a smile on his face. in moments like this, ask yourself who are you going to be? a toddler that gets pushed around by 'closet' communists that have taken over the media corporations in america? by the pessmistic speculation in wall street? or do you prefer to be, to a slighter degree, smarter than the average population and make something out of this mess?
in this country, there is so much potential to make money. if you are a hard worker, if you want to pursue an education (no matter if you're taking courses at devry online or purdue) what matters is that in five years from now you will be able to say, 'gee, all that commotion and yet here i am richer than ever'.
