Real Solutions

07/18/2009 Human Observations
More than 5,000 years of civilization shared by both the extremely wealthy and the devoutly impoverished proves that the barter system does not, and cannot work. There is not equal trade for equal, but rather an offer by the one and a compromise by the other. Forget the rhetoric that attempts to justify greed. The system has had its chance amongst humans, and failed miserably. Let those who claim to be in possession of “an intelligent mind” be put to the true test of intellect, and search out a real solution to this inhibitor of civilized development. Stop the whining and sniveling before it begins: Everyone born on the planet has the same right to own a portion of the planet, for the purpose of living. No one person is “more entitled” than another, in spite of the pride and arrogance of their own self importance. More than six billion people must co-exist. If you think you’re smart … prove it. Get busy beginning to solve the first real problem that you’ve faced. Results, not excuses.
