>I'm talking about the BIG things: our planet and ecosystem, clean water, liberty and human rights, they are all becoming irrepairably broken. food prices aren't BIG? I mean, they aren't big for you and I, sure, but for most of the rest of the world, there is nothing bigger. And really? you are seriously saying that the average person's level of personal liberty and human rights is lower now than it was 30 years ago? Like I said, that might be true if you are white and male and born in the US... or if you are anything and live in the parts of the middle east we are at war with, but for the vast masses of humanity, the world has gotten rather more free. /they/ now can compete with /us/ for jobs, which is an incredible improvement. (well, it's an incredible improvement for them. For the least skilled of us, well, it kinda stinks. Me? I think it makes things a lot more interesting, and it vastly increases my potential customer base.) |
