Economics One oh One. It’s simple. Capitalism is what we, int he USA expierence today. Ther country is divided into two or three sections. 5% are rich. Buisness owners, Movie starts, Sports starts, lame politicians, or the offspring of such people. 80% are the middle class. Typical average joe. 9-5 jobs. The rest live in poverty. Now, as well all know, we have an insane president. Mr Bush. An idiot, and none more powerful in the world. Power trip and wants to finish his daddies war. Oh, and oil, or liberation or something inbetween the lines I’m not sure. But all I see is an idiot. That’s not the point.

The point is that we, the USA are at war right now. And because of this, our economy has changed. Now, the buisness owners, that 5% want to MAINTAIN their amount of PROFIT. So by doing this, they must take that 80% of the population, and fire some, cut hours of osme more, cut pay of a few, and raise prices for all of them. Greedy sonsofbitches. But this means something. it means all those people, that are now looking for work, or trying for more hours, all those people with families that relied on that paycheck, are now in a bind. They have no real choice. As their income decreases significantly, their cost of living goes up.

You see, people need certain things these days. And don’t try to lecture me on how people need to disreguard their worldly posessions. Your new age, and hippy ideals don’t work anymore. It’s the 21st century, Weed is illegal, and forgetting your responsibilities only allows you to fall into the area of Poverty, and you have no respect. You have men like bush to blame for that. But again, that’s not the point.

The point is, all these things happen. And they happen to us all. They happen to me.  Only I have a problem.

You see, I have grown up only doing what I must to keep my parents from yelling at me. To keep the bill colelctors at bay. Could have I done more? Sure. But did I? Oh no. Of course not.

See, It used to be that all my worry was, was $100 for car insurance every couple of months, the occasional phone bill, or gaming bill, and pizza costs. But then things changed. they evolved. They grew. So I too had to grow. I had to switch jobs to where I could get more hours, and more pay. At the time, it was easy enough. No real hurry.

Jump ahead 3 years. My bills have increased from maybe $100, to garunteed 500, maybe 600. Still not much. right? Maybe if I had a good job. But you see, a good job wouldn’t fall under the category, “enough to get by” it would fall under “more then enough” and that my friends, wasn’t for me. No point in working hard when I can work half assed and still survive.

You see where my problem is? No, it’s not my spelling, grammer, or writing. Actully, my writing isn’t as good, as I had written this once, but OD decided to time out on me, I hadn’t saved, and lost my original. So now I’m jsut trying to recreate, and we all know a recreation isn’t as good as the real deal. So, sorry.

Now, my problem is simple. I don’t try hard enough. That’s how I’ve always been. But I can’t stand it. I hate it.

My bills grow, my life grows, my needs grow, I grow, my job… stays the same? I hate it.

I need more money to survive. But I need more then that if I want to live. Truly live. On my own, away from my childhood. Away from my parents. The whole time I’ve sat behind my idealistic walls of thinking I’m doing the right thing. Thinking theres no reason to try anything else.

Well ya know? those walls are killing me.  They’re shielding the grass from my view, so I can’t see how green it truly is. And i love the color green.

So what’s a man to do but rip down those walls. Realize my problem? Done. Face it head on comes next. To do that, Gotta take down these walls.

And you can trust me on this, they will fall hard.

As always,

QUOTE OF THE MOMENT: “When something is gained, something is always lost. It’s impossible to live without facing that fact. What is lost will never return. Important things. Irreplaceable things. The things necessary to protect those things. The firm determination packed into a bullet. Man knows… knows that nothing will begin unless he speaks. That nothing will change unless he moves.” Vash, Trigun.
