What if?

Post by dylann »

okay i was just thinking about this today i dont know why.

what if everyone in the world was equal, equal rights, equal amount of money. what do you think would happen? who would do the dirty work for all the rich and powerful people?

this made me realise that rich and powerful people need us, more than we need them. people who abuse their power in governments need the poor people way more than the poor people need them. rich/powerful people have more say over what happens, but they need us to be able to follow their decisions.

if nobody did what the governments told them the 'right' things to do. they would have 0 power.

i dont know why im writing this, and i have no idea on what youd be able to reply to it. but im just putting it out there.

Actually, rich and powerful people need us as much as we need them. If that hadn't been the case, our society would have collapsed ages ago.

i think that if all people had the same everything it would make for a peacfull world.

the goverment are just full of shit. i think that if we didnt listen to them then there would just be loads of groupes of people trying to take power that is now avaible. resulting in death to millions of people all over the world.

i think the world will never be a peaceful place as long as humans inhabit it.
I think drugs have done some good things for us, and if you don't believe me, do me a favor. Go home tonight and burn all your albums, tapes, and cd's. Because the musicians who made all that great music...rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreal fucking high on drugs.

There isnt peace in the animal kingdom either.

Communism could only work in a society in which the next generation are raised with no knowledge of current governmental systems, only that of equality in communism. They would have to be taught that you may do more or less work than your neighbor and though you get paid the same, it needs to be like that. They would have to be raised in a completely functional communist society in order to create one.

The only problem there arises when everything becomes disorganized, a leader would have to rise. But thats when it becomes totalitarianism.

I personally recommend checking oneself for OCD at least once every 5 minutes.
