We've had it too easy for too long with all the marvels of technology and our penchant for instant gratification.<BR/><BR/>Why won't we do anything about this outrageous coup that took place in 2000?<BR/><BR/>I suspect that its just not painful enough for the masses yet. Pain is a great motivator- actually I think the best motivator. Humans, for the most part are inherently lazy. They'll do more to escape pain than they will to attain pleasure anyday & everyday.<BR/><BR/>Unfortunately in this situation it might be too late. I hope not.Chuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12386004175127513482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23768728.post-8693737459542634112007-06-01T07:52:00.000-04:002007-06-01T07:52:00.000-04:00utopia, thanks for coming by- i don't have that an...utopia, thanks for coming by- i don't have that answer. over 70% of americans are angry and frustrated that our government is failing us and the world. these people talk about spreading democracy around the world and yet- attempt to subvert it here. america has seen itself as the world's policeman since after world war 2- but i think it has more to do with money. we have much of the world's money and we want to keep it. as disgusting as that sounds- i really think it boils down to greed. if asia is on the rise, what does that mean for america? well, i think that the answer is pretty clear. the rich white men who are running our government don't want that to happen- hence what we are seeing.<BR/><BR/>chuck honey- if you didn't write so much good stuff- i wouldn't have to link to you all of the time :) dezzi too- she is so good at finding info- and i shamelessly grab it. thanks to you both.billiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16206096509976316141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23768728.post-52610899827376430432007-06-01T04:13:00.000-04:002007-06-01T04:13:00.000-04:00hey betmoam not an american and i didn't know that...hey betmo<BR/>am not an american and i didn't know that this is how disillusioned some of the americans are with the war. i checked out dezzi's post too and above all this is such a sordid scenario and is gonna be remembered as a historical blunder. Wonder why America considers itself to be the BIG DADDY of the world? is it that hard to accept the fact that a lot of countries in asia are doing very well without american interference and even if they are not i don't think they need godsent America to sort things out. look at the fiasco and mess in iraq.Utopiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10704721941622143439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23768728.post-84426885469995896852007-05-31T23:47:00.000-04:002007-05-31T23:47:00.000-04:00{Betmo}WTG!Great find on that blog from Dezzi.I po...{Betmo}<BR/><BR/>WTG!<BR/><BR/>Great find on that blog from Dezzi.<BR/><BR/>I posted a comment right under yours. That young man is fully enlightened and knows how to use that keyboard. I was impressed enough to add a link to him immediately. Everyone should read that & I hope that anyone stopping in here or at Dezzi's place will.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for yet another mention here within your entry. :)Chuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12386004175127513482noreply@blogger.com
