So what does everyone think. Are we all about to be swept into the crashing waves of WW3? This is defiantly not a troll, it poses a serious
question.
Let me tell you something. As a US citizen, I am worried about the state of my country, and the world. Hell, I am absolutely terrified.
Human rights in general are being taken away one by one.
Social degradation is on the uprise the world, which to me, is the first sign of a collapsing society.
The world itself is crying in distress. Look at the weather. THIS IS MESSED UP WEATHER.
Politicians are plotting and planning to keep themselves in power, and take away power from others. Always this stupid race for power.
We can't band together to solve issues which are important. IE, the "energy crisis".
We are blinded by the faiths that are supposed to give us a sense of peace. Christian, Muslims, and nearly any other major religion are guilty of
it.
These are but a few examples.. from what I see, I am afraid we are self destructing. What do I do? Start a picket? Why.. so I can be totally ignored,
beaten by other civilians, or have a swat team come and pelt me with rubber bullets or taze me for no reason? It has come to be that anyone trying to
solve the problem, becomes the problem, and distracts from the real issues.
We take so long to make decisions, that, by the time we bring those decisions into play... they do not matter anymore.
I'm absolutely sick and tired of all the whining, immature leaders in this world. Take the freakin nukes... and destory them. Put more money into
research and technology funding. Incorporate an alternative to prison for Petty criminals that is more cost efficient. Sorry, America smokes
marijuana, get over it, make it legal with the same laws as alcohol and free up more space in the money pit we call prisons. Reinforce education
budgets, and get America educated. Sure. Okay. Fine. Some things take time to show results. But Stop being two and throwing a hissey fit when you
don't get that toy for another week (that was pointed at our world's leaders).
Cooperations have no business being involved in US government. Take them out, and any offenses of bribery, extortion, or the like will involve a
pertinent ban of all business dealings within the US soil.
So we lose money. GET OVER IT. Its better in the long run. All I have to do to reinforce that statement is point at big oil, and you all know this.
And yes, the media and the press need something done. I have no clue what. Absolutely no clue, but they need to get their act together as well.
I totally went farther than I wanted to with this. I saw this thread and everything I have ever thought of about what is going on in the world today
just made its way to my fingers. Hello ATS, after a very long time of reading, I have finally made an account.
