(UPDATE: 28.7 M cases -- 516 K dead - Week 9 Recap: p. 53) I believe we are in the death throes of a dying and antiquated system and way of life. Everyone is so scared, not only about catching this virus, but also scared of giving up their way of life. When you really step back and look at it objectively, why is this a bad thing? The global financial system is a house of cards just waiting to fall. We have propped it up for decades with lies and smoke and mirrors. through our own greed we were happy to look the other way. But what has our greed really brought us? Its brought us overpopulation, the destruction of our environment, the destruction of our spirituality. Our greed has left us in a state of fear, anxiety and anger. And if you don't believe it just look at how people are panic buying and hoarding supplies, and toilet paper of all things. Gun and ammunition sales have gone up over 200%, and for what? Fear. Men in the United States cling to our guns like scared little boys. Sure they talk a big game but when it comes right down to it, they are frightened and scared. Some even talk and worry of Marshall law. And you need to ask yourself honestly, what would you do if they ever came to your door and asked you to turn over your guns? I'll tell you what you will do, you will hand them over. You won't like it. You won't agree with it, but you will hand them over. Sure there will be a few that fight it but 99.9% of Americans will hand over their guns. And if that leads to an evolution of society I welcome it. We need to let the old system die, and embrace a new system. A system not based in fear and the acquisition of more and more possessions and unsustainable growth. I think the human race is at the beginning of an evolution. An evolution into a new system where the acquisition of wealth is no longer the driving force in our lives. A system in which we work to better ourselves and the rest of humanity. Without a doubt people will be forced into this new way of living, many kicking and screaming because they don't want to give up what they know. But in the end we will all be equal, and better for it. |
