I'm just blown away how people can't see the truth. But then again... I'm on an atheist forum, most people here seek truth, hence the reason for being here.
Our voting system needs to be changed. Electoral college eliminated. But really are politics the biggest issue? I don't think so. I think the hindrance of technology and adhering to old
ways of doing things are what is slowing us down.
Why 5 day work weeks?
Why 8 hours a day?
Example. All hypothetically but I think truth is in it.
It takes one man 1 hour to build 1 toy car.
It takes one machine 1 hour to build 10 toy cars.
If you were meeting production goals at 1 toy car an hour, once you implement machines, you have to scale back your whole operation.
It now only takes 1 machine to do the jobs of 10 men. So 10 men lose their jobs. Yet the production remains the same.
Take this theory and apply to all sorts of jobs and tasks, and you end up with a lot of people being replaced. YET all production remains the same. So does that not just generally mean... we the people just basically have to work less now... with the advancement of technology we as humans have to work less to provide us with the same quality of life.
Everyone that works 8 hours a day now only works 4, so one job turns into 2... Money issues aside because with this logic, yes all salaries would be 1/2. But I don't think money in general is out biggest issue because money is tangible.
Does this not make sense in a way? I don't want bashing just honest criticism or agreement.

"...the illegality of cannabis is outrageous, an impediment to full utilization of a drug which helps produce the serenity and insight, sensitivity and fellowship so desperately needed in this increasingly mad and dangerous world."
