Why didnt love save the world
Why does the population continue to grow
Why do we continue to destroy our our planet
Why do we think making a law will fix any problem
Why is life a competition where money and power are the motivation
Why do we use as much natural resources as possible as fast as we can and think thats progress
Is this a race against the clock, are we running out of time
Is it just my imagination or is there a serious lack of individual thought and perspective among people in the world
This is the best time theres ever been to live, I realize or ansestors had it rough, but do we have the wrong ideas about quality of life, is real freedom and happiness in life now only prevented by our own primative thoughts and maybe stupidity
Does anybody think im crazy in the brain
Really if you think im nuts tell me you wont hurt my feelings

> Why didnt love save the world
*Give it more time
> Why does the population continue to grow
*They are in too much of a hurry to have sex and don't use enough birth control and some don't beleive in it.
> Why do we continue to destroy our our planet*We can all start to take responsibility as individuals by recycling and doing environmentally responsible things
> Why do we think making a law will fix any problem*Not everyone thinks that but many laws make sense, some are debatable. People can try to change laws they don't agree with-they can learn how to do it and be positive that it can be done
> Why is life a competition where money and power are the motivation*Money is a necessity to live and do anything thus the motivation. Power is not appealing to everyone and so is not motivating to everyone. Perhaps those who are motivated by power learned it from those they follow
> Why do we use as much natural resources as possible as fast as we can and think thats progress
*I don't think that is progress and there is much being done environmentally (ask Al Gore)to preserve our natural resources. I am learning moderation and others know it, too.
> Is this a race against the clock, are we running out of time
*Life is too short, that's for sure. I became more aware of that when I lost those very close to me. The microwave timer seemed to count down the seconds to my life. When you see that other civilizations once existed on other planets and are now extinct it makes me wonder if we, as the human race, will become extinct one day.> Is it just my imagination or is there a serious lack of individual thought and perspective among people in the world
*There are many people who just go through life's routines and perform their duties and behave as they were taught without a second thought to examining their beliefs. I think certain people strive, though, to examine many things and beliefs and imagine innovations.
> This is the best time theres ever been to live, I realize or ansestors had it rough, but do we have the wrong ideas about quality of life, is real freedom and happiness in life now only prevented by our own primative thoughts and maybe stupidity
*I think the technology craze has changed us but it is up to the individual to decide what he or she wants in life, what happiness is and each person has his/her idea of what quality is. As for freedom, I guess I compare living in this country to living in places where there is war and atrocities and therefore this seems freer to me.
> Does anybody think im crazy in the brain
*I don't think you are. I'm glad you use your brain to think up all these interesting questions.
> Really if you think im nuts tell me you wont hurt my feelings
*Okay, you're nuts....just kidding!!! :-)

> Why do we think making a law will fix any problemcause we're dumb.

Because most people are selfish, ungrateful jerks who have no clue what being rich is really about.

groups are easier to control than an individual. free thinkers are far and few in between.

unfortunatly, the answer to this question is : no!

> groups are easier to control than individuals. free thinkers are far and few in between. when one does come along, he/she is usually locked up, nailed to a tree, sedated, burned as a heretic, excommunicated, and/or forced to drink hemlock by a confederacy of dunces that conspire against him.

EVERY VOTE IS SACRED
Sung to the tune of every sperm is sacred
There are gore supporters, there are Bush fans
there are commies and greenies and then
there are those that follow Buchanan -but-
I've never been one of them.
I am a trouble maker now
and have been since before I was born,
and the one thing they say about folks like us is
We'll raise hell as soon as we're warm.
You don't have to be a six-footer.
You don't have to have a great brain.
You don't have to have any clothes on,
you're a loud mouth and an anal pain
...Because...
Every vote is sacred
every vote is great,
If a vote is wasted,
Gore gets quite irate.
Every vote is sacred,
every vote is great,
If a vote is wasted,
Gore gets quite irate.
Let the right wing spill theirs,
on the dusty ground.
Gore shall make them pay for
each vote that can't be found.
Every vote is wanted,
every vote is good.
Every vote is needed,
in your neighborhood.
Pinkos, Commies, Fascists,
spill theirs just anywhere
but Gore loves those who treat their
votes with more care.
Every vote is sacred,
every vote is great,
If a vote is wasted,
Gore gets quite irate.
Every vote is sacred,
every vote is great,
If a vote is wasted,
Gore gets quite irate.
Every vote is useful,
every vote is fine.
Gore needs everybody's,
mine, and mine, and mine.
Let the fascists spill theirs
on mountain hill and plain.
Gore shall strike them down for
each vote that's cast in vain.
Every vote is sacred,
every vote is good,
every vote is needed,
in your neighborhood,
Every vote is sacred,
every vote is great,
If a vote is wasted,
Gore gets quite irate.
