I wish we could just hit the reset button on the world. Things just feel like they are getting worse and worse, no matter how much I want to stay postive about it, or no matter how hard they try to mask it.. it's in the back of a lot of people's minds.

From our own continent (NA) to the next, it just seems like there's major problems everywhere you look. From political trash littered all over the news, to other stupid crap that is just distractions to what is really going on.

If only we could knock down all these huge corporate buildings, erase Money from history, give everybody a decent meal to eat every day, and explore without dishing out your life savings to do so... It seems like a very small percentage of human beings actually get to experience life fully.

Get a job, work your ass off day in day out, slave away to the system that doesn't care about you.. Just speaking my mind after spending 3 hours in a traffic jam coming off a 12 hour work day. This shit just feels so pointless sometimes.. The money doesn't even justify it anymore, I'd trade it all to be free from this grip of whoever the fuck is running this world.

I think there has always been problems in the world and always will. hitting the reset wouldn't solve anything.

I dunno man, I strongly believe at one point in time things weren't like this. I hope the people that created it serve the worst mental punishment for eternity. Enough about "races" and fucking skin colour, it's about humans.

I may be going out on a limb here but.....I'd wager that if you had the chance right now, you would not want to live a in a world where money never existed and people didn't have to work in order to obtain the things they desire.

I agree, so I try to do something about it.
Speak to many people, teach as many people as you can (especially ones that you think you could improve the life of), and give what you can.
Most of all, don't forget yourself. Do what you can to experience life fully.

Not true, it's the way they've designed it that is getting to me. Face it man... the majority of the human population barely has a voice when it comes to what we ALLOW other people to do to US. Money drives the evil in this world, but it didn't have to be like that, you know? If only more people with that 'key to everything', did good with it.. I think that'd be a start. Though the damage is done... they want to flee to Mars, don't they?

I won't deny that the world is shit, but I wouldn't trade my current situation for a "reset" where money never existed and people were just given what they needed. I like my technology/every day comforts that we take for granted too much to toss it all away. I just don't see people having the motivation to produce in the scenario you posted.

I mean hell, I certainly wouldn't be working in my current job if it wasn't for money/the desire to have possessions/food.

Things are better, not worse, by practically any meaningful measure.

Yeah I get you technology is great and I love gaming and using technology.. I'm not gonna sit here and lie to you, but I never said I wanted to live in a world where people were just given what they needed. I personally would let go of my material items to live with real freedom and peace because once you look past it all of it's "good" (because yes it does some good), it's designed to distract you from things, whatever that may be... A world where if you wanted to do something, no man could tell you that you "can't" do that because of whatever qualifications they MADE up.

I'm just blowing off some steam, I know these things will probably never happen.. I just can't help to feel disappointed about it all.
