What we need to get out of this mess is a big ole' war...yup, nothing better to stimulate an economy and rally the faithful than a good ole' us vs them war...works wonders every time.I have decided rioting works in extreme situations but for stuff like this, it just really sucks. I mean it SUCKS I might even joint the TM bunch (why yes, I am indoctrinated with a ton of funky stuff, because I was explorative in my youth. I'd enthusiastically commit to whatever, because I was like, "I think all this BS about one religion guru whatever or another, I have even met a Bishop or two that was fun to talk to) so I participated enthusiastically, for a while, and moved on..
It's useful. Really. Maybe not TM. I have a hard time crediting that if ENOGUH people did TM at once, the world would be a loving peaceful place. Well, maybe we would ALL die of boredom and that is how it works.
However, I am distressed enough to see if it might be worth my time.
Likely not how can you know though? That's one of those unprovable hypothesis even if it worked because you can't prove it wasn't; Other Stuff.
