Your prediction on the future of the human race

[wolfishgirl]

That's nice to know Regulus... How would you suggest we get rid of government then?

[Regulus]

I don't. We need government. My only suggestion would be to manipulate the economy a bit, so that no person can horde it all. I'm not suggesting communism, we all know that doesn't work, but capitalism in the extreme we have today is destroying our society.

You never know though, maybe in a few dozen years we'll all have robot overlords. This is exactly why we don't want computers to be able to think.

[wolfishgirl]

That is true, but again if we do start to manipulate the economy, how would people react? Honestly, people would hate that, they love what they have now and don't want it to change. And communism. HA, good job Lenin, that was such a smart idea you had for Russia, it didn't make it so that millions of people starve and die at all... And don't get me started on technology.

Such changes would only affect the 1% I mentioned earlier. How dare they pay the same percentage as everyone else in taxes!

...which the government should use to build our infrastructure. You know, like other countries at least try to do.

[wolfishgirl]

That's true, the 1% that is rich, but the rich are the most powerful. And those that have power are able to get everyone else to follow them. They are the *sheep dogs* and we are the *sheep*. The few *Black Sheep* are ostracized from society for their radical views that threaten the rich peoples security.

[Regulus]

Exactly.

It's the circle of economics. Rich people pay politicians, and politicians look after the rich in return, so that both groups get richer. There really isn't anything that can be done without starting a revolution. And that would only mean war. And, as you said earlier, the effects wouldn't last. Eventually the cycle would return.

There really isn't anything anyone can do.

[wolfishgirl]

Yes that is true, but as the future leaders, don't you agree that we can start on something that can effect the world for better before we get pulled into the greedy world?

[Misiziri]

I have no idea, honestly. I still think we've got a fair amount of time, maybe a few lifetimes, before things really hit the fan. I know greed is completely out of control, you can see it everywhere... but I wouldn't give up hope for humanity too soon. I like to be the optimistic one Maybe something will smack us across the face and give us a huge wake-up call. Buuuut I don't think that's going to happen to soon. But there's just so many possibilities... I have no idea what the future holds.

If you're talking, like, the very END of humanity then hopefully the Earth and remaining life will pull through. But that's a bit of a far cry, as for humanity being entirely wiped out I don't see that happening any time soon.

I agree with you Misiziri. We need a wake up call or else it's gonna become a lot worse, and so bad. That's why I made this. I'm hoping that it will help some teenagers see what's going on and help them get away from the crowd and stop being a sheep.
Who finds this wrong. Last year a Norwegian terrorist killed 77 people. He was caught and is facing trail. If he is found guilty and not acquitted on insanity plea he will only serve 21 years in prision!!!!

[SlayerOfLight]

lol if that norwegian scumback goes to prison for 21 years, he'd probally be an old man and too old to commit such horrid crimes again when he gets free. And if he will get away with everything he has done, he'll ultimately face the concequences of his actions either in THIS life or in the afterlife.

mass murderers and evil persons will NEVER escape justice, no matter what.
