It just has to stop, somehow. People call it rebellion, non-conformism, and whatever that pleases them really. It has been too long now, The gods, the kings and queens, the warriors, and everyone else between. We have to, for once, stop saying that i cant do anything, it has to start somewhere. People call it life, the rules, survival, talk about it- pure hypocrisy is all that is learned, thoughts of doing good are wasted, very sadly, we end up respecting all that, yes-all that that should not be.
It isn’t about equality, neither do i close my eyes to what prediction methods say about rampant charity, or the about the “balance” that will be shaken when few more people start walking on the sidewalks. We’re talking about simple lack of cryonics in the third world which i belong to. Is the morality required to save a drowning child more than the morality that is needed when we need to apply logic for writing computer programs? Why is it so hard for people to understand that? Especially the rich (tell me they work hard than an average person, or they are more intelligent, or simply that is how it works). No, definitely not is a simple answer and atleast some thousands have to globally rise up and really get few more to think. Wont help, that is what you must be thinking, people came and they faded away, some were absorbed by the glitz of the power world, some associated themselves with the powers(feeling pride) and other did time.
I used to be baffled as a childhood thinking why the hell is dollar equivalent to 36 rupees. I grew up, still wondering because nobody gave me a satisfactory answer and the college in which i studied(supposedly one of the best in india) did not have internet facility(barring from a room with some celeron processors which they called the internet cafe), so i think lack of internet and indulgence in other activities swayed me away from the question. Then i was exposed to internet, and googled “How is currency values decided for different countries?” I got the answer, in simple terms, Few countries just said this is what it is, just like church, like the kings, like the goverments, and yes, that is how it is.
“Many people, when they see something that they think is worth doing, would like to volunteer a few hours of spare time, or maybe mail in a five-year-old laptop and some canned goods, or walk in a march somewhere, but at any rate, not spend money.”- Eliezer said sometime in context of “charity”
Problem is that people calculate the net worth of everything including people with money. No surprises there, I have seen over a period of time how people’s attitude towards me has changed when i did/didn’t have money(we are talking very small range here, but its enough). People denying to do so is a bigger problem than them actually doing it. Simple example is people denying spending money on someone as “relative value” they reflect about the person on whom they do so.
The answer is obvious, its too deep within us, just way to deep, one will probably try to act something else, but it will be very difficult, problem is the common middle man, the farmer, the chef, the mothers, the programmers and the managers etc, its way to deep, asking for change is like asking a 21 inch tube TV to display LCD quality picture. The power centers get away because everyone below likes to getaway, starting at luxury beach side house for higher levels and a bottle of rum (even worse) at as far as you can go down.
It seems i can go on and talk about how power centers are accumulating and ignoring half of the world. What i ultimately want to say though is that these power centers are more scatterred than we think they are, the mind-gap wont arise because tommorow bill gates will stand up and say ” i here by relinquish my holdings”. It will happen because everyone prepares for such a change, because it is everyone who is part of it.
I am wondering what iam talking about here, if you too are, then i am talking about Money-
“Money, so they(originally bible) say Is the root of all evil today.
But if you ask for a raise its no surprise that theyre
Giving none away.”
After learning time signatures, i wondered that i used to play a “Odd” time signature with Money. I think we all will realise the oddity associated with the actual word(Money) at the sametime, sometime.
