We live in a world where several hundred thousand people live in work prisons for little to no reason...where the most common cause of death is starvation or exhaustion.
The rest of the world tolerates this abomination.
And you think it is possible we could all live in harmony?
It makes a nice song. It does.
But reality is reality. Mankind is a very very selfish creature with small minds and fearful of anything different than themselves. it is what we are.
We prove it on this forum everyday.
In the last election, dissatisfaction with government is as high as it has ever been - YET - we voted in the same people almost 100%. Insanity...all because we foolishly fall for the "yay rah for my side" mentality.
Keep on playing those mind games forever
1. "The religion of Leftism has its search for UtopiaÂ…albeit of this sphereÂ…and two famous statements encapsulate the search:
a. There are those that look at things the way they are, and ask why? I dream of things that never were, and ask why not ?Attributed to Robert Kennedy.
b. The other is from the words of John Lennon’s song, “Imagine.” One is asked to imagine that there is no heaven or hell, that everyone lives for today; that there are no countries, nothing to kill for, and no religion; there are no possessions- therefore no greed nor hunger.
2. Conservatives don’t dream of things that never were nearly so much as Liberals do. We usually dream the same dream that our forefathers did: an America that is identified by the “American Trinity” of “Liberty,” “In God We Trust,” and “E Pluribus Unum.” And, judging by history, we have seen that ‘utopian dreams’ are more likely to end up as nightmares."
