...Random Thought...

Just sat down and watched a few minutes of television... something I never ever do... have you ever noticed how the media in all its forms often normalizes the inherent dysfunctionality of families and society as a whole?
The direct and indirect indoctrination most media outlets perpetuate through stereo typing basically maintains the status quote. Think about American television shows in particular.. Most High School related shows enforce and normalize the concept of segregation; races, classes, ethnic groups, religions and groups such as jocks, geeks, and cool kids. When a young generation grows up with a face glued to television, crafting there reality and aligning it with something so destructive, how can we ever expect to evolve into a civilized world.

SIDE NOTE:
When a corporations base incentive is Profit over and above whats best for the Planet and secondly the Consumer; it is easy to see how as technology naturally evolves global employment rates will plummet as machines become cheap enough to replace humans in most jobs. It is always a better business decision to use a machine as they don't get tired, lazy, can work 24/7 with out breaks, do not require benefits and are not part of a demanding labor union. If people lose there jobs they cannot fulfil there 'role' as a consumer, forever weakening so called economic growth. Thus technology will always be paralysed for the sake of maintaining this dysfunctional system.
Now if that doesn't cause an economic collapse how about the SIMPLE fact that we live on a finite planet of which we are exponential destroying itS resources with out regulation, to accommodate the over population, yet we use an economic system which demands infinite growth... let alone the fact that our incredibly large population is dependant on one main thing for survival... Energy.. more directly cheap non-renewable oil. If you look at the graph below you can see the relationship between our energy consumption and growth over time. MOST of that energy is oil based.. agriculture on a global scale is almost completely dependent on cheap oil.. according to OPEC we hit peak oil production in July 2008. Petrol prices will skyrocket to lower demand and we will reach a tipping point....

Yet I have faith that we will Eventually see the design flaws in our economy and the redesign of our world in a holistically integrated way will be undertaken through a process of global unity; this will be the beginning of the civilized world. However it will likely get much worse before it gets better.. the recession has only just begun.. when the American stock market crashed on October 9 1929 it wasn't till 1933 that the depression really struck.. What goes up must come Down.

Research 'COG' - Continuity of Government
I call it Political Redundancy... Hey, I could all ways be wrong... regardless, the subject is undeniably worthy of YOUR OWN PERSONAL RESEARCH : ) The ball is in your court
