Now I know you may get this a lot, "consider yourself lucky you live in a country with a lot of rights and freedoms." or "I bet a poor family would be glad to receive something like that" The truth is, yes we are lucky. But the world does not work in a way where we can share with everyone else. It's just not possible, Jesus himself said "You lack one thing; go, sell what you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me." Mark 10:21, (now I know I'm not Christian but it is, from the Bible) Well, I do not want to contradict Jesus, but does it not seem that perhaps Jesus is telling us to sell our things and we will have treasure in heaven? Perhaps, but perhaps not. I don't think that giving money to somebody is actually solving the problem. Look at so many situations in the world where money is given to solve problems. It is given to 3rd world countries to try and help them. But really, the money is only given to a certain number of people. What about the others? They are left, left for nothing. It truly is unfortunate. But it happens, do we talk about it? Nope. Do we do anything about it? We sure do. We throw more money at it!If you can understand my logic I'm trying to say that our leaders, our respected society members and rich upper class. Don't care about poverty at all. They care about publicity and "trying to do the right thing" it sounds like a load of bull to me. We work hard to stimulate the economy especially in these times of hardship. This blog isn't political but I'd like to stress the fact that NOT EVERY GOVERNMENT WORKS! Actually none of them work. A government that works has not been invented yet. It's sad isn't it? Not even democracy works. Democracy - the free and equal right of every person to participate in a system of government, often practiced by electing representatives of the people by the majority of the people. Sounds promising but actually consider the fact that with a minority government we cannot do anything! We waste away our months willingly working to stimulate the economy for ungrateful people who wont do anything and yet they expect us to. Give money for our house, our gas, our electricity, our water, our connection with the outside world! the Internet! Something you are using right now, and probably taking advantage of it. So its just a vicious cycle! You are born, you go to school from when your 4 to when your 24 sometimes longer. Then you get some job. Get married, have kids, retire, have grand kids, get pension from the oh so promising government and die. Perhaps, maybe just maybe I am overreacting, but I am not lying to you. Look at the picture. It will be your housing if you let this keep happening. Our population will explode and our economy will crash. Perhaps a war will break out and tragedy will strike us. "Many forms of Government have been tried, and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all-wise. Indeed, it has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all those other forms that have been tried from time to time" - Sir Winston Churchill. Can you not see that we are straying into a hell of poverty and deceit? Do not be blind sighted by those who say they can save you, do not be betrayed by the man you voted for in the "fair" election do not be cut down by the enemy as you were fooled into fighting for something you believe in. Listening and acting on everything you hear sounds stupid right? Well it is. Just because Someone says something and five million other people believe in it as well does not make it true. If they have guns or tanks or planes or ships or money it does not make it true. The only thing that should be true is what you believe is true. Religion, Politics, Sexuality, Philosophy, are all in your opinion and you are allowed to think whatever you want. Don't follow what you see directly ahead. Take the path less traveled.
Interesting.
