Call this creative or just far-fuckin-fetched, but...

[Is it just me, or do you see everyone who is living in a globalized part of the world actually having a poorer quality life, then those who are blind to many of the worlds great "blessings" known as technology? See in my opinion, anybody living in this North/South American culture, Scandanavian, European, and Asian countries, are blinded by greed. Our lives are bent towards making money, because really, we can't survive without it right? We want more and more money to fuel our wants and needs. We need money to eat, drive, send our children away to school... And half the time, the meal you just ate sucked, you got stuck in traffic, and your kid just dropped out and became a failure in your eyes. Meanwhile, if people didn't need money, they'd be happy with what they ate. They wouldn't NEED a vehicle, and they would love their child for who he or she is. The stresses associated with living this lifestyle are absolutely astronomical. Mankind was not meant to live, working for another person so he or she can live. We weren't meant to sit in cubicles all day and be driven by greed or technology...

Now then... let's examine the life of those who aren't influenced by globalization. Take a native tribe for example, living deep in the rainforest or jungle of some far off island *insert native jungle tribe name here* (yes, they still exist.) These people live an almost stress free life. Now before you turn off your computers and call me crazy, let me explain.

These people have had little or no connection with the outside world. They live life the way God intended them to. They build their own shelters, hunt their own food, teach themselves how to survive through building strong family ties. They aren't brought up to believe that money is the only thing that can bring success and happiness. They live stress free because they aren't forced to go to school, get a good job, have an attractive wife and nice house. They don't have to worry about survival, they are brought up to hunt and cook their own food. Sure, their will be medical issues. But really, don't we have enough of our own that cause stress? Shortage of doctors, disease-causing products, murder and violence etc. If a natural disaster occurs, they have the skills to rebuild. Who here really knows how to rebuild their home besides architects, contractors and construction workers? These people live life the way it was meant to be lived, ever since the first caveman bonked a woolley mammoth over the head with a mallot and threw it on to the fire.

I wish I could live a life free of these pressures.]

It's because mankind is a complete and utter hoax. People don't know anything about anything these days, and are completely blind.

It is actually my dream to get out of this society. Not only do we rely on money, we REQUIRE it. I don't want to work for money, because im sick of being treated unfairly. The way this work force works is a select few cunts are doing barely any work, and making a steady stream of cash, while everybody else has this illusion of equity. It happens in almost every industry. However, I have no choice. I need to buy food to live, I need to pay for the water I drink. If I wanted to grow my own food I would need to buy land to grow it on.

I actually feel so sorry for people. Its terrible. Theyre stuck in this cycle of "things will get better soon, things will get better soon, things will get better soon" and then next thing you know theyre dead. Its the reason the mid-life crisis exists, and a whole host of other mental conditions. We spend our entire lives being miserable, preparing for something that never comes. Occasionally we get this illusion of happiness, then it goes away.

What happened to life? It got merked...

this is that shit i was talking about on msn nos

"Money is the real cause of poverty," said Owen.

"Prove it," repeated Crass.

"Money is the cause of poverty because it is the device by which those who are too lazy to work are enabled to rob the workers of the fruits of their labour."

"Prove it," said Crass.

Owen slowly folded up the piece of newspaper he had been reading and put it in his pocket.

"All right," he replied. "I'll show you how the Great Money Trick is worked."

Owen opened his dinner basket and took from it two slices of bread, but as these where not sufficient, he requested that anyone who had some bread left should give it to him. They gave him several pieces, which he placed in a heap on a clean piece of paper, and, having borrowed the pocket knives of Easton, Harlow and Philpot, he addressed the, as follows:

"These pieces of bread represent the raw materials which exist naturally in and on the earth for the use of mankind; they were not made by any human being, but were created for the benefit and sustenance of all, the same as were the air and the light of the sun."

"Now," continued Owen, "I am a capitalist; or rather I represent the landlord and capitalist class. That is to say, all these raw materials belong to me. It does not matter for our present arguement how I obtained possession of them, the only thing that matters now is the admitted fact that all the raw materials which are necessary for the production of the necessaries of life are now the property of the landlord and capitalist class. I am that class; all these raw materials belong to me."

"Now you three represent the working class. You have nothing, and, for my part, although I have these raw materials, they are of no use to me. What I need is the things that can be made out of these raw materials by work; but I am too lazy to work for me. But first I must explain that I possess something else beside the raw materials. These three knives represent all the machinery of production; the factories, tools, railways, and so forth, without which the necessaries of life cannot be produced in abundance. And these three coins" - taking three half pennies from his pocket - "represent my money, capital."

"But before we go any further," said Owen, interrupting himself, "it is important to remember that I am not supposed to be merely a capitalist. I represent the whole capitalist class. You are not supposed to be just three workers, you represent the whole working class."

Owen proceeded to cut up one of the slices of bread into a number of little square blocks.

"These represent the things which are produced by labour, aided by machinery, from the raw materials. We will suppose that three of these blocks represent a week's work. We will suppose that a week's work is worth one pound."

Owen now addressed himself to the working class as represented by Philpot, Harlow and Easton.

"You say that you are all in need of employment, and as I am the kind-hearted capitalist class I am going to invest all my money in variuos industries, so as to give you plenty of work. I shall pay each of you one pound per week, and a week's work is that you must each produce three of these square blocks. For doing this work you will each recieve your wages; the money will be your own, to do as you like with, and the things you produce will of course be mine to do as I like with. You will each take one of these machines and as soon as you have done a week's work, you shall have your money."

The working classes accordingly set to work, and the capitalist class sat down and watched them. As soon as they had finished, they passed the nine little blocks to Owen, who placed them on a piece of paper by his side and paid the workers their wages.

"These blocks represent the necessaries of life. You can't live without some of these things, but as they belong to me, you will have to buy them from me: my price for these blocks is,one pound each."

As the working classes were in need of the necessaries of life and as they could not eat, drink or wear the useless money, they were compelled to agree to the capitalist's terms. They each bought back, and at once consumed, one-third of the produce of their labour. The capitalist class also devoured two of the square blocks, and so the net result of the week's work was that the kind capitalist had consumed two pounds worth of things produced by the labour of others, and reckoning the squares at their market value of one pound each, he had more than doubled his capital, for he still possessed the three poinds in money and in addition four pounds worth of goods. As for the working classes, Philpot, Harlow and Easton, having each consumed the pound's worth of necessaries they had bought with their wages, they were agin in precisely the same condition as when they had started work - they had nothing.

This process was repeated several times; for each weeks work the producers were paid their wages. They kept on working and spending all their earnings. The kind-hearted capitalist consumed twice as much as any one of them and his pool of wealth continually increased. In a little while, reckoning the little squares at their market value of one pound each, he was worth about one hundred pounds, and the working classes were still in the same condition as when they began, and were still tearing into their work as if their lives depended on it.

After a while the rest of the crowd began to laugh, and their meriment increased when the kind-hearted capitalist, just after having sold a pound's worth of necessaries to each of his workers, suddenly took their tools, the machinery of production, the knives, away from them, and informed them that as owing to over production all his store-houses were glutted with the necessaries of life, he had decided to close down the works.

"Well, and wot the bloody 'ell are we to do now ?" demanded Philpot.

"That's not my business," replied the kind-hearted capitalist. "I've paid your wages, and provided you with plenty of work for a long time past. I have no more work for you to do at the present. Come round again in a few months time and I'll see what I can do."

"But what about the necessaries of life?" Demanded Harlow. "we must have something to eat."

"Of course you must," replied the capitalist, affably; "and I shall be very pleased to sell you some." "But we ain't got no bloody money!"

"Well, you cant expect me to give you my goods for nothing! You didn't work for nothing, you know. I paid you for your work and you should have saved something: you should have been thrifty like me. Look how I have got on by being thrifty!"

The unemployed looked blankly at each other, but the rest of the crowd only laughed; and then the three unemployed began to abuse the kind-hearted capitalist, demanding that he should give them some of the necessaries of life that he had piled up in his warehouses, or to be allowed to work and produce some more for their own needs; and even threated to take some of the things by force if he did not comply with their demands. But the kind-hearted capitalist told them not to be insolent, and spoke to them about honesty, and said if they were not carefule he would have their faces battered in for them by the police, or if necessary he would call out the military and have them shot down like dogs, the same as he had done before at Featherstone and Belfast.

Ahh yes, I would have had to put that in my top 3 bedtime stories when I was kid. It was only surpassed by a basic lesson of quantum physics and Beauty and the Beast.

thay should make a country for every religion and let people move freely through out them... and give each of those countries a nuclear weapon to fuck up any other country that tries fuckin wit them or any country/religion.. that way if we're too dumb to get along we can all die and deservingly so
