Your prediction on the future of the human race

[quote="Kopalover"][quote="Woeler1"][quote="Arani"]Every government in the history of mankind has been pretty stupid in my book. Just as people are saying, it's all about the money. And these idiotic governments spend that money on war and other useless things, while thousands, even millions of people suffer of poverty and such. That money could be put to much better use, but noooooo, our governments have to spend that money on more weapons and more wars and all. That doesn't help us any, no matter which way you slice it. The human race is pretty idiotic.[/quote]

Bravo my friend, Bravo. Finally somebody who opened their eyes and sees what is really going on.[/quote]

I second this. Amazing![/quote]

I third this. It pretty much sums up my views lol. Which ever way it goes, I'm not sure if our future is very bright.

[quote="wolfishgirl"]What do u expect the gov to spend the money on then?[/quote]Jobs, education, the welfare of it's people maybe.

[wolfishgirl]

Welfare really???
Why should we give money to people who sit on their butts
and spend all the moneyon drugs and alcohol instead of
taking care of there kids???

[Tora]

I don't think you understand. The welfare of its people in a sense of taking care of a nations people. The system that is in place in the United States does not work. A limit needs to be placed, and not amended. If a person has not found a way to support themselves in a allotted amount of time, then it should cease. There are places to go such as homeless shelters other than welfare. Alcohol should not be sold to those on welfare. Everyone has the right to enjoy themselves, but if that person has others to take others. The rights of the dependents to survive is greater than that of one of one person's enjoyment.

[wolfishgirl]

maybe so, but how should we expect the gov to do it?
All they are are power hungry leeches.
We r the future do u reall think we'll do better?
Not likely

I do think things can change. It is because people think and believe things can't change is why they don't change. It takes someone to truly be rooted to what they say; to go out and set their mind to changing it. 1 Person can change things. Hitler; one man changed the whole infrastructure of government in Germany. Though not for the better. If someone puts their mind and body to change for the better they can. One man can gain the followers then they can change the government. It is because people have no faith in government and because people are swayed back and forth by hollow reasons. A stand on gay marriage for example has swayed voters back and forth between Obama and Romney. That reason should be one of the last reasons to base your vote on. Nit picky things like that should not dictate your vote. People need to look at the overall effect on their choice. It is a complete facade to say the Obama has not helped the Economy. If congress which we the people voted in is undermining it all then what can he do Veto it? If he does it simply goes back to congress gets passed again with the necessary votes and the president has no choice.

The problem to me is that for humans to survive, we have to realize the resources we have to work with. That forming governments of people to control people and land is an inevitable slide to tyranny, war and bloodshed. People need to learn to respect the planet, mankind, and it's resources on it's own without a government forcing it to. But if people continue to be owned and corrupted by money and power, they're doomed to the fate of every nation.

The sad thing is selfishness is no longer an attribute of the rich alone, but off those they get to follow them. Even those of average wealth have learned to loathe the less fortunate as freeloaders. We have to learn that no human deserves to die no matter how lazy they may be. Nations are means of control and deception and nothing more.

Tora: you supplrt obama?
And yes nations are a means of control but one we need
there will always be power hungry people out there.
Anting to control others and are able to.
We r the future and need to start thinking of it.

[quote="Woeler1"]I don't see a good future on our own part either. We are still killing each other over ridiculous reasons. Look at the middle-east, look at the poor countries in Africa. People killing and getting killed. What is the difference between a hard working US civilian and a hard working Pakistani civilian? nothing. What is the difference between a hard working European civilian and a hard working African civilian? nothing.

It is time we wake up and realize that our enemy is not in some distant land. They are not people whose names we don't know and cultures we don't understand. The enemy is people we know very well and people we can identify. The enemy is a system that wages war when it is profitable, the enemy is the CEO's who lay us off from our jobs when it is profitable, it is the insurance companies who deny us healthcare when it is profitable, it is the banks who take away our homes when it is profitable.

Our enemies are not 5000 miles away, they are right here at home.

So if we won't destroy ourselves because we simply destroy our planet, we will destroy ourselves by greed. As long as we don't realize that the only problem is our greed. we will always express our greed in the form of killing other human beings and racism.

Humans aren't good beings by nature, that is a lie and a delusion.[/quote]
