All this angst, anger, ranting & raving, whatever you want to call it...but you don't PROPOSE anything. OK, so you walk, you ride your bike (which your parents probably bought you with money they earned at their job, which I am almost sure required some sort of industry) you recycle, etc, etc. but what is your ANSWER to this "mess" we are in?
do you think that bike you ride never required any kind of industry? did you make it your self from scratch, with your bare hands from materials you gathered from the earth? doubt it. someone had to make it. someone had to deliver the materials to your local bike shop via plane, truck or train. someone had to sell it to you. unless you stole it, of course.
You know what happens if tomorrow, everyone, and I do mean everyone, started riding a bike??? Eventually, we would all have to stop riding our bikes, because there would be no one left to manufacture these bikes, no one to deliver parts to the shop, no one to maintain them, etc. Then, what happens when/if we close the bike manufacturing industry? (or is this the only manufacturing industry thats OK? them, and the recycle centers) OK, so we get rid of all the bikes too. Everyone walks everywhere. What happens when your family member needs immediate medical attention, or they need to get to the hospital right now....but the hospital is 20 miles away? they'll die. As people become more & more desperate, fighting for survival, anarchy & chaos would rule supreme.
I personally don't want to live in anarchy & chaos. I am happy that civilization has progressed as much as it has....so we can remain civilized. Am I saying that we've never made any mistakes along the way? no, of course not.
There are more people born everyday than die everyday. This is something neither you or I can do anything about. This happens world-wide by the way. that's just the way of the human race. The Earth can obviously only support so many people...so in theory, given enough time, your pretty picture there would be entirely lit up. Where do we go from there? We won't even be around to find out.
This is the Human Race you belong to. This is the planet we live on. let's do our best to not point fingers, and just help your brother in need if you can.
and don't even get me started on the whole white race thing. Skin color has nothing at all to do with the above. All skin color represents is an early civilizations proximty to the earths equator...the closer they were to it, the darker their skin color..period
PS: please excuse my earlier post...i was drunk & tired
