Whats really messed up in the world?

Please don't talk about personal issues or disagreements or DRAMA on this thread.... this is meant more like "in general" :
"What are the biggest problems and possible solutions that the human race faces today?"

Possible Polar Shift?

Quoted from tupac "We got money for wars, but can't feed the poor." It was relevant 12 years ago and is still relevant. Wonder why...

^The truth is spoken. Speaking of war...how about them apples? All this time on this planet & the best way we(humans) can figure out how to solve problems is to kill each other & here's the kicker - we can reason unlike other animals yet we do it anyway.

yeah, we are really rational, logical, peace going people aren't we... lol

I don't know what's wrong with the world sometimes. I get into these ruts where I just can't stand how fucked up everything is, then I forget all about it and go on living my everyday life.

The thing that always gets me is when I see the biggest dick in the world(a person) driving the nicest car in the world. Then I see the kindest old man driving a 3 cylinder Geo Metro, going home to his single bedroom apartment to his loving wife and I wonder why the kind man doesn't deserve a nice car and all the material goods he could wish for. I like cars a lot so maybe that's why I think of it as cars and I work the drive thru at a fastfood place.

Anyways, then I realize that there is more to life than material things and maybe the old man is just wiser than that and knows what makes him and his soul happy. I think a lot sometimes.

Terrorism. some people just like to decide they are miserable and want everyone else to be miserable so they terrorize. As fucked up as America can become, it's pretty obvious due to people's reactions that we don't like war, and wouldn't be in it, if we didn't have to keep defending against terrorist assholes.

Terrorism needs to end, or humanity cannot grow. If we didn't have to pay for wars, we'd have alot more money to feed children.

I Know exactly what you mean man... so many other things that are ironic like that too..... cazy fucked up world we make for ourselves to live in....

"What are the biggest problems and possible solutions that the human race faces today?"
-Itself.

Solution?

-Mass Extinction of the human race.

"Quoted from tupac "We got money for wars, but can't feed the poor." It was relevant 2 years ago and is still relevant. Wonder why..."

-It was relevant at the beginning of recorded history. Its nature of the beast to fight for power and territory. It's how we evolved. Most animals do the same thing. Give them a few weapons and you have yourself a war.

Starving poor? Maybe let natural selection run its course.

"Terrorism needs to end, or humanity cannot grow."
-Terrorism doesn't cause wars.Corrupt politicians do.Terrorism is a military tactic. It can't end. All wars are economic wars. For Profit and to inflict fear in the citizens.
America has always been at war

I read somwhere that in all of recorded history there was only like 130 total years where there was no war. And that is recorded. Of course tribes in dif. places were at war.


War is natural.
Get used to it.
Or do something about it.

ironic some would say they are the same thing along with the american government

The usa is one of the richest countries in the world. But 100's of thousands are hungry and homeless.And health insurance should be availble free for all!

People shouldn't even need health insurance.... I would say that the biggest problem in the world today is the traditions and thought patterns that are taught and passed down to the next generation on large scales.

whats bothers me, is the way sex is used to sell everything and is everywhere in the media.. just the other day I seen a commercial with two TEENS.. they're standing facing each other one says "are you ready" as she's undoing in pants and it shows teh guy and slowly they undress and them jump in the water.. then at the end it comes up Levis.. what tha fuck? This is how you're selling cloths to children and teenagers? By telling them them this is all cool? wasnt teenage pregnacy an issue at one point? when did it stop? when we decided we couldnt handle our kids? where im at, 3 out of 4 high school girls have an STD.. thats high school.. now.. in ten years at the most it'll be in grade school..

When did it become socially acceptable to be a whore? Remember when a girl would have sex with multiple partner's and eventually after so many you would be like "she's a whore" and it would mean she's trashy and nobody wanted her around? What happened? Now day's you might be considered a whore if you have multiple partner's at the same time.. depending on how many of them there are and how many other girls were involved.. This is why I don't have kids and am in no hurry.. because I don't want it to happen to my daughter.. it's already gonna happen to a friendof mine's daughter and nobodies doing anything about it except enforcing her idea's.. she's only ten.. so asfar as anyone knows nothing yet.. but it's a matter of time.. and it's sad because society has put such an importance on girlfriends and boyfriends... if you're a girl and you dont ahve a boyfriend you must be ugly and if you're a boy and dont have a girlfriend.. you're a loser.. What the fuck? What happened to if you cant stand on your own two feet you shouldnt bring in two more to help you lean up? Thsi little girl i was talking about honestly believes that all there is in life, is having a boyfriend, getting married, him taking care of her, and her having a baby.. she's only 10.. what tha fuck? and thsi si in the country... there's websites dedicated to teenage girls being as sexual as possible,.. Maybe i'm wrong, and if so please, someone.. take me from this world.. but it's sickening.. you cant wtach cartoons without some sexual undertone's and the image of two people being together and being in love.. Love is fine.. when it find syou.. but no one ever goes out hunting love and finds it.. and thats what our kids are being taght and that the best way to find is, is spread your legs and let it cum..

To me, it says to girls you are what's between your legs.. nevermind whats in your head.. of that just what, 50-70 years ago women couldnt vote much-less have a say in how our country is lead.. but now you can run for president if you really want to.. you as a woman, have as much ability to change teh world as anyman.. but nevermind that because it's all about whats in your pants.,. it's sad.. exspeciallyw hen you think about how far we as humans have come.. to let this be all we are at times..

I would say it all boils down to the system of government we live under, the ways we let ourselves be oppressed and controlled by fear and money, that and the traditions and thought patterns that are taught and passed down to the next generation on large scales..... I would think that covers all the other issues there are, in a burrito, and that we need to focus on those things to fix the problems farther down the latter....

i hate how we are "free", but have to live by the laws... stupid laws. im not saying that we should be able to run free and do anything we please... but bein punished for making our own choices? iduno man... fuck it.... wheres the weed?

We can all band together to get it legalized.... but, as I have said many many times before, it would take a nationwide effort that is highly organized, and full of people that are prepared to make real sacrafices......

So when all of you people really get tired of the crap our government is throwing at us, let me know, we CAN do something about it that will show results quickly and with very very little violence.
