Where Have All the Good People Gone?
Last time I checked, Manners were still to be used
So I've decided that people no longer give a shit about anything. And in the same breath, why should they?
I can't remember a time when everything was happy and people helped other people. Neither can my parents. Today's society is built on lies. The rich get richer, and the middle class / poor stay that way.
An example of this that comes to mind are big box stores such as Wal-Mart and Canadian Tire. One stop shops. Great right? Well sure, you can get everything you need without having to travel all the way across town to other shops.
Heres another way to look at it, all your money is also going to the same place. Being publicly owned corporations, that money is put into the pockets of the board members, and miniscule dividends to share holders. When there were seperate hardware / grocery / houseware / fashion stores, your money stayed in that store, it wasn't shot to some faceless group of jack-asses.
The people around a desk running big box companies can't see the people they're affecting, and therefore they don't exist, and shouldn't be cared about, so long as the money keeps coming in.
Theres too much shit in the world right now to flush. Priorities need to be set. The amount of shit astounds me. I can't think of anyway to write justice to it here.
Peace Out
Theres more important things in life to care about
