That's pretty eloquent. I've always liked the Bill Hicks take on it.

Its always the big companies, the leaders, the rich, someone else.
People never look at themselves and see what effect they have on their surrounds, its easier to point the finger.
We are a selfish creature and growing evermore so as we no longer need our families or communities to survive.
Our instinct to survive drives these very selfish desires we all harbour.

Its fine to applaud good speeches and wholesome rhetoric but to actualy live by it is seldom heard of.
I wonder how many people here think their children are "special" and do everything to make sure they get the best over the next mans seed?

I dont think many people have the stomach to give up what is really needed to make a difference, the well intentioned whether rich or poor are just as likley to be hippocrites as the Banker or Politician.


Any way sermon over, if you want to see news like this sooner then look further afield than the beeb. It just dont figure in our narrow field of vision rather than it being kept from us


Peace  :smiley:

Bill Hicks was awesome, love that guy and his humor, if only he was alive today.

The best bit was the bush jokes, even after all them years when bush junior came into power, Bills joke's still related to him, even though they where initially for his dad's generation.

Life is a roller-coaster  :wink:

Thumbs up to this!! Although the world has problems with corporate greed and ruthless dictators it is us who left the door open for them to do as they see fit. Our blissful iggnorance is to blame. Our inability to educate ourselves and being content with spoon fed pointless information is to blame. Our lack of understanding of what is relevant is to blame. Change yourself, because thats all you can do. Free yourself of all hate and anger and focus your energy on doing good.

Well said VW BUSH!

Totally agree people can just be lazy, easier to blame the people that actually keep the world turning than get off their arses and do their best to change their situation.

Do think as Ghandi said words to the effect of that you need to be the change you want to see in the world. I'm getting tired of people who don't actually make or contribute anything getting rich.

Doesn't even scratch the surface, the money they take back from us in taxes and other methods kind of cancels it that argument out. Its practically monopoly money though, it has no inherent value, real wealth is land and resources.
