My Theory On Life Today (work in progress)

So I'm on the phone with one of my really close friends today and I stumbled upon some shit in my head that made everything about this life extremely crystal clear. In a way I suppose you can say that it changes the way I view life. I believe sometimes you need to just sit and think about things in order for you to clearly see whats really going on.It all started out when I brought up the problem I had with our economy and the government. More specificly the whole organic foods issue. First of all, what on earth have we been eating this entire time before they started using the term "organic". So essentially, the question I'm trying to ask is: Why are we paying more for items and food that are grown naturally. Last time I checked pesticides, growth hormones, and genome reproduction are way more expensive than growing something with seeds. water, and soil. So why are we paying more for these items? Why should we have to pay extra to eat healthier? Why should we as a people pay to live in a safer enviroment? Isnt that essentially what the government is there for? What the FDA is there for? What is the USDA there for? I mean what is any government funded program for? Why should we have to pay for eco-friendly cars? I mean lets face it , why should we have to do anything? As is we have to work two jobs in this day and age just to stay afloat and live a halfway comfortable life. Why should we have to do all the work and pay more money for all these services, items and resources? Isnt that what we supposably pay taxes for? Anyway you slice the pizza, the fact is we as US citizens and human beings are being extorted. Have you ever stopped to ask your self why gas prices are so high? I know I do everyday. Most would believe that the cause for the increase in gas prices are because of the war in Iraq and all that terrorism mumbo jumbo. However I truly believe its something way beyond that. I mean think about it really. Do you ever hear about anywhere else in the world having issues with sky rocketing gas prices to the extent that the US does? I may be wrong because I havent researched this subject thoroughly but last time I checked no one but the U.S. is having problems of this magnitude when it comes to gas. While some would like to believe that its because of the "War in Iraq", I believe if you open up your eyes and start noticing things for what they truly are, the trends will tell you otherwise. Right now like it or not, this country IS in a depression. They may sugar coat whats going on with their keen forms of word play, but ultimately when it all comes down to the nitty gritty, we're in a depression. We are printing more and more money when the amount of gold we have in the treasury is still the same. For those who don't know, paper money isnt valuable. Its the gold it reflects. All this gold, all the gold the US owns, is in the treasury. The paper money and coin money that we handle everyday is just a mere reflection of what the U.S. has. Now when the dollar was first invented, the concept was right. However, they kept printing and printing the money there for each dollar that was produced ultimately brought down the value of the next dollar. Then you get credit card companies in the mix who are giving people unrealistic spending abilities. Thus in turn plumitting our economy even further into the ground. So all that is just a recipe for disaster. I mean its plain for anyone to see thats not a good thing. To top it off they pay all these professional atheletes, actors, singers and rappers all this money which essentially is another form of overextending the amount of gold we have in the country. I mean I'm all about if you work hard for your money then you should get it and be compensated for your time, but I'm also a firm believer that people get way to overcompensated for things at times. Especially in this day and age. As Americans we're overcompensated for everything. My generation along with the ones that have been following after me, seem to be under the delusional impression that just because they wake up every morning they are entitled to the world. Especially growing up in an afluent rich neighborhood, it was aparent that in this day and age children are spoiled because parents are lazy. Parents are too lazy to actually raise their children so instead they spoil them with IPods, cell phones, ps2's, computers and other junk to keep their children out of their hair and distraction. A form of effortless control for parents. Our generations and the generations that are to follow in our footsteps are being raised now not by parents but by mainstream society and the media. Last time I checked, they were playing condom commercials during after school hours and sexual performance enhancers during dinner hours and afternoon talk shows. Music about crude sexual favors and explicit lyrics being played on the radio incessantly. They'll edit and sensor out cuss words and profantiy but when it comes to inuendos they dont care. Its the inuendos that make shit look cute and appealing. And its cute things that kids latch on to. Sometimes because they think its funny and sometimes because they think its cool. Children are so easily influenced. They wonder why we have so many bad ass kids. Well look whos raising them. Why is it that the government allows this? I mean obviously they must have kids right? Are they not concerned about their children? Probably not. They have money to put their kids through extraciriculars and private league teams. They have the money to keep their kids busy. But everday working people dont have that priviledge all the time and sometimes its easier for parents to turn the tv on or the game console. The government essentially doesnt care about everday working class people and their families because they are too busy tryin to control them. This government is run by old money. Basically you pretty much have to be born into our goverment, although they never will admit this, to have any authority in the white house or within our government. It's all the same people who, in some way shape or form, were born into wealth. They are born into that stature. So essentially no one gives a hoot about your kids, my kids, or her kids. In a technologicaly advanced world they are now using media and myspace and other forms of entertainment and leisure as distractions to keep us as a society controlled. The more we sit in front of the computer the less chances we have to rebel because we're in the comfort of our own home. Thats how they want us to view it. When in reality, like Alex Jones claims, we are turning into a prison world. Our houses like jail cells. We just think we have freedom when really we get what freedom they decide to give us. Almost how it is in prison.
