I think it is very important to talk about it because of the time we live in
It’s infuriating. We have 7.5 billion people in this world. We allow about less than 1% of that population control all of us…..every country is the same. The so called world leaders. They better watch out. If that day comes and the entire population of any given country decides they’ve had enough it’ll be over for them, the jackass leaders. Don’t forget, military is made up of the children of these populations. It’s only appointed military leaders who “run” things, in other words, lapdogs. The military will side with the people if the people have the courage to see it thru.
Again, sorry for being angry. I’m so tired of the hate, but then I realized it’s all driven by politicians and their paid media puppets. I belong to forums where people from all over the world discuss these issues. We are all the same.
I understand your anger, because it is frustrating, but sadly something so obvious isn't so simple to do, even common people and soldiers have their own interests that prevent them from doing that, even when the answer is obvious the implementation of the solution is the hardest part, because people in the era of capitalism can't seem to see a bigger picture, but still we all should try our hardest to make an earth a better place to live on, not only for ourselves but for everyone around us as well :)
I actually think capitalism is a good thing. It’s simply been abused by political contributors. Capitalism is what has allowed individuals to succeed by their own merit with nothing to hold them back. Rich, poor, black, white and everyone in between. You get what you work for. Blood, sweat and tears. You put in, you earn. That’s capitalism. We all benefit from it. I applaud it. I know it’s not simple, but they (ALL WORLD LEADERS) are pushing people in a corner. It’s going to explode.
Do you know an inventor, yes capitalism, made a product out of mushrooms that could take the place of plastic containers of eggs, drink holders etc. completely biodegradable He disappeared. And why do all these tree huggers….yeah, I said it, waste their damned time on stupid stuff like saving the polar bears based on questionable science when they could do stuff everyone will participate in like getting rid of the plastic grocery bags?!? Everyone jumps on the I HATE SLAVERY bandwagon, well take a look at the lithium mines. Children and adult slaves mining. Why are we still using lithium. Why doesn’t our media show this.
Everything is made in China…..for fuck’s sake, look at the work conditions. It’s deplorable. But, hey, nothing to see here folks. As long as we get our cheap clothing and all the other crap we want, why question it. My point is, capitalism is good. That’s where amazing people with amazing ideas no matter what class, race, country or culture….you get what you give. We, as a society, ignore the things we don’t want to recognize. However, I feel that this is ending because we’re all being pushed in a corner. I hope so, because I’m fed up with government and ready to fight back.
Lol, we should probably end this here. I feel bad for everyone just trying to get insight to this great story without political conversation. Thank you so much for your input. I found it very valuable and gives me cause to think. I appreciate it
Aww but it's so nice to talk to you, so for the end of discussion I will just say that I'm all in for free market for individuals to thrive in, but sadly as we can see monopols of big companies take all of that diversity and suck off the life out of it, by buying off anyone that can be a future competition, or buying of the political elites to stop changing of the law for their benefits. I think we should look on all systems that humans used for all this years and take the best parts to try improve system we live in.
One more it was so nice to talk with you :)
Yes, it seems every decent system we have eventually gets abused by greedy people trying to work around it or take advantage of it. It’s an endless cycle. It was nice talking to you, too. Keep the faith. Humans screw up a lot, but that’s how we eventually get it right.
My thanks to the author. We’ve been enjoying this amazing family and their day to day lives. In truth they are part of the Cold War which followed horrific wars. WWI and WWII and all the one on ones in between. That was a dose of reality that was needed to remember how shitty this stuff is. The higher ups move civilians like chess pieces, this includes soldiers. In the end, the civilians and soldiers of both sides lose and the higher up assholes either celebrate or lick their “wounds” and plan the next war.
Sorry everyone for such a depressing comment. This chapter felt like a necessary slap in the face. From here on out, I’ll enjoy the fun of this story, but remember what’s really happening.
