Who past insanity plans to vote for... <img src=http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=2089436>
I feel the need to comment on the picture. A reply would complete the circle and validate the man in the picture. You posting the pix, me replying, life is good. P.s. Kudos to the caption writer, btw.
Aptly describes the average bush voting neanderthal. Blame it all on modern medicine. Keeps these prematurely born retards alive long enough to grow up and vote,
Remember how the brain works... During childhood and as a teen, the brain grows and expands into the skull - the skull and bones themselves expand with the brain. And the brain is getting filled with grey matter etc. This grey matter is structured through the learning process - where short term memory is imprinted into the longer term patterns of the grey matter of neurons. Then - if you have all this brain structure invested into one belief system and ideology - someone comes along and say it is actually different, the brain simply has a difficult time coping. Those who break free from cults and other submissive programs do so because over time they sense that it is wrong, then they are finally able to escape. But remember that also social structure is an extension to much of ideology from within social groups; so actually becoming free is a very difficult because of external pressure and social investment. When we Europeans look at the US, we see a rather cohesive social unit who are acting aggressive towards others. The US is saturated with religious activities, enormous symbols in the image of the nation and nationalism through chanting and calls for "patriotism". While Europeans are much smaller units, and used to a stronger cultural diversity with different languages etc. Therefore Europeans are also much more easy going towards their neighbouring nations, but there are also other tensions. Most British friends of mine absolutely detest Italians for example. I have nothing against Italians, but find them somewhat emotional and disorganized... from a systemic view. On the other hand, there needs to be positive emotions and reinforcements as well, for people to feel a real response from others and society. Today, I see the US population as enthralled or mesmerized with the ideology of their political elite, while not understanding that the world has actually changed a lot the last two decades - in terms of international structures and trust. There is a more common view internationally nowadays - where consensus and preservation in the evolution and progress forward is being protected by the "social group of nations". That is why it will be difficult for the US to continue their old ways as a superpower... others just won't stand for it.
