@bolded is still in effect today, just in a different form
we're trying to reach the "platform" of sustainability, and some argue it can be reached faster like "this" (economic inequality) than by spreading the resources equally
@your save the earth thingy
just imagine if we suddenly started enforcing 100% green laws,,, companies would be forced out of business.. they don't all make big net profits you know, most businesses are just barely positive, enough to make a living, enforcing green stuff with the hope of ensuing a new golden age would actually crash the market, just saying
agreed,,,

That's a little presumptuous. You have no idea where I place blame unless you are a mindreader. I didn't really know what my options were at 17. And up until I was 41, I was a patriot, and would have given my life for the United States, on whim. During my career in the Navy, I didn't get so effected by what we were doing. I pledged an oath, to myself and my countrymen, and my ego told me not to pay mind to it all, even if I was wrong.
But that shit don't fly forever. After awhile, the "desensitizing" training wears off.
I'd like to point out, that during my research, I have concluded that "most" common men really don't want to be in a military situation. Sadly the system sets up a bit of opportunity black outs for most people, having not the money, nor the where with all to have the same opportunities as others, so they look to the military for a career. When they get out though, it's a whole different ball game. Every vet I've ever spoken to, feels they have been deceived. Feels that it was a ploy to keep an economic system afloat. After all war is the most lucrative business known to mankind. Human suffering is viable. Human dysfunction pays. I should know. In 10 years I grossed over 1 million dollars in the field of human dysfunction. Unfortunately I lost every penny of it to the banking cartel when misfortune came my way, through no fault of my own, and had to resort to savings to survive and take care of 2 kids as a single parent.
Of course, you kiddies probably wouldn't know what thats like would ya? Losing a loved one, that could have been completely prevented, if man didn't dominate each other, and set up a sick social system... but I digress...
So, Im going to discontinue subscribing to my own post here, because I realize I am in with a group, who simply is lost, and without real life experience.
Too young, too stupid, too much ego, and a huge DICK to wave next to their flags and gods and guns.
Have a nice life, hope ya get sick, and stay sick, then wonder why it happened.

while there might be alot of wrong doings,,, so it has bin for 1000+ of years
it is in my believe that we are becoming better, justice is a thing that we force or rule out,, there is nothing fair in life, such things often comes down to mere luck,, where you were born, your parence, everything around you'
ignorance and arrogance is a thing we humans tend to become, which is very stupid, prevents us from learning and creates hatred
your trying to explain something to people, but the problem is not what your trying to say,,, its how you say it,
early on you start out saying¨how uneducated people are, your insulting people and noone likes that,
while some of what you say may be true, you must never rule out the fact that you might be wrong, such is the sign of arrogance
we learn all our lives, till the very end
