I have a philosophy on life. I have a philosophy about America. I have a philosophy about God. I don't know if any of these things are relevent or have any connection with anyone elses thoughts but I will start by saying that money is the root of ALL evil. It is a necessary evil to live in the modern age. Going back in history we see that money was developed so that we all have an equal thing that has an equal value. $1 is $1 to the man on the streeet and is $1 to Bill Gates. It has the same value when it comes to purchasing. Before money, people would trade things that had value to them, such as an animal or fine jewelery or anything that was of value to them. So money is something we all have been trained to value. We learn this when we are given change and told not to spend it all in one place. We live by this standard today and we will always live by this standard. It does create problems, however. Because money is what we all need to eat food, buy shelter, and gas to get us to wherever we need to go, which is probably a place to either go spend money or to make money. This creates problems because people need it. Not all people have it. This creates a society that is dangerously divided. Different incomes, different life styles, different motives, different thoughts, different lives. So if you don't have money, you find ways to get it. Some steal, some rob, some kill, some sell their bodies, some sell drugs, some just don't get any money at all and starve and live on the streets. If I never make it in America, I will not become homeless in America. I will move into another country where money is not as important and is easier to come by. I believe money creates a "God like" image in our minds. We seek money more than anything else. We go to school to get an education which will get us a job. To get a better job, and get more money, you have to pay more money at college. And we work our live away and spend all of our time working for money. That is wrong. We should live life, meet people, play, find things we enjoy doing. This Earth is awesome. There is much to be seen on this Earth. Without all of the shit we have put on this planet, Earth is Beautiful. I believe God created life and hence, a place to have life, which is Earth. God created something we could enjoy and live on. We didn't need to do anything to it, it was perfect. But we did and we screwed it up. God is what we should be learning about. God is what we should go to work for. God is what should be our motive. Ya see, money has taken the place of God in all three of those principles. Thats money for ya. Switching gears now and talking about America. America is too American for me. I don't like America. NEWS CHANNELS. SPORTS. TELEVISION. CARS. GAS. DAMNIT!!! I will use a quote from one of Ozzy Ozbournes songs, "I don't want to change the world, and I don't want the world to change me!" That is my way of thinking to the T. America is one of 125. We try to be number one. We are the police of the world. We are the bullys of the world. We start shit before anything happens to us. And, we as americans, pay for them to do this. Taxes. We pay the government to govern us into what they want us to be, law abiding citizens. We pay them to go to war because we heard that they don't like us and they are going to hurt us. If I heard that I would say, Im sorry that you don't like us but not everyone does. Please just leave us alone and we won't do anything. We are just going to keep living here and you do the same over there, the way you like to do it. Thats where I want to live. A place that doesn't want to govern any other place. Live and let live. The economy. I mean really. The economy?? Give me a break. The economy is the buying power of Americans. Well in order to have a good economy, people need to buy things. In order to buy things people need to have jobs. In order to have jobs, people need to buy. See, it all revolves around money. EVIL. I want to live in the 1600's. I will work all day long to have food and shelter. I don't need money for anything else. Leave me alone!!! Thats all I have to say today. I have a lot more but I can only think about this for so long before I go Crazy.
