he voices the truth about US falling into abyss. a few smart people predicted this decades ago. Shortie Casto Out
I don't want the US to fall into the abyss. I think the greatest chance of achieving utopia for all is through the US. I think people basically have their hearts in the right place. Believe me, often I second guess myself in opposing much of the wisdom that is society. Doubt is my middle name. In many cases in the past, when I have opposed a rule or law or philosophy that I thought was stupid or unfair, what I discovered was that while I was right on paper, as soon as you involve people, the wisdom of what is law and the way the world works is amazingly correct in practice. My great sadness comes from the few voices you hear that defend the poor, or the sick, or the truly unlucky. Further, or if I can afford more courage, I think it is a philosophical mistake that we put more and more of our fortunes and employment in the hands of corporations. Sadly, I don't have an alternative solution. But these continuous booms and busts, this uncontrolled consumerism, the intense pressure put on a people to constantly be in competition with one another over a buck, it will eventually lead to a societal heart attack. What also saddens me is that believe it or not, it may have been out of the desire of people to do good that we get in these troubles. You think the economists, philosophers and other thinkers at the University of Chicago meant to destroy markets and people with their theories? Chew on that.
and you take hollywood nonsense too seriously, stop watching avatar every night, shit like that poisons your mind, porn is better than that crap
The US and every other G7 country are in for a rude awakening in the next 10-20 years, our standard of living is going to be drastically reduced due to globalisation. i would estimate somewhere around 75-90% of jobs in the manufacturing sector lost in 2008 are never coming back, or not coming back to G7 countries, when you combine the advancement of computers, and robotics with globalisation the future looks very bleak. Due to globalisation we are no longer going to be able to maintain higher wages while we exploit poorer countries for cheap products, Prices of items which we were previously buying at cheaper prices are slowly going to rise, as the entire world goes into a balancing mode right now. I think There will be uprisings en masse sometime in the near future in all major industrialised nations, as everyone points the finger at each other, and gets sick of all the countries of the world being so intertwined. I honestly think the next 20-30 years looks very bleak. And I am not normally a pessimist. The uprisings in Greece are just forshadowing what is coming in the entire western world. I never used to be pessimistic enough to believe that a mass extinction was coming in our life time, but i believe it is almost certain now. I dont see any way around the current situation other than all of the G7 countries in the world getting sick of their standard of living going down and down and down, and pointing fingers at each other, resulting in a reset of the monetary system, as every country starts defaulting, and imposing trading tariffs, thus creating a trade war, and an actual world war. The problem is that i cant even begin to imagine some of the weapons which exist today if there was a massive war amongst Industrialised/militarised nations. All it takes is a couple of psychopaths coming to power in a couple of the military powers of the world to throw the entire world into complete chaos. It doesnt help that radicals are usually able to come in to power during times of economic crisis, the same kinds of crisis we are facing today.
