Reply #5: Jobs & healthcare trump "culture" [View All]

every time..

One of the reasons that teens & young people from "back then" had the "luxury" of trying to imagine a better world, was BECAUSE they were quite comfy.. When people are scraping by with 3 crappy jobs, and always running out of money before they run out of month, they are less likely to "get involved" in social causes..

That's the beauty of the plan that has been set into motion.. A lot of people actually believe that if only they work more hours, or work harder, things will work out..

Very few have much time left over to study what's happening.. Most prefer the mind-numbing "entertainment" that "takes them away" from their troubles.. Most do not even have the energy to try to change it..even if they wanted to :(
