Let's blow the fuck outta them...don't you want to be free?

[Moses25]

Not just free will. Not just "freedom of choice".

But true freedom. The freedom to live one's life at one's will, and in privacy.

It's in both Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms, and in the Constitution of the United States, repsectively...

How come it's not being followed? And how come the ability to pay off one's bills is in direct proportion the amount of "freedom" one gets to enjoy?

It's only money, people. Contrary to popular belief, it won't make or break you in this world. Strength of character and wisdom are the only things that get you through this life...

"Well, wouldn't it be wise to pay off your bills, Moses?", one could retort with a substantial point.

Yes, of course it would be wise, but it still shouldn't impede one's enjoyment of life, and certainly has nothing to do with one's ability to be free.

Too much emphasis on economics in this world - too little humanitarianism.

Any thoughts?

Cheers. 😛oke3:

Two questions:

1. who/what is "them" ?

2. praticing humanitarianism is difficult without invoking money (economics) which you do not seem to favor.

So I'm confused.

I surmise that you're a little stoned and are feeling buried in debt (probably credit cards). Shred your credit cards and pay cash for necessities for a few years and you will have your freedom.

The Others.

I wish I was stoned.

Great questions, tho. Thanks for replying.

Cheers.

Work up an achievable plan, apply yourself to the plan, and you will win.
Best of luck to you.

as was so well put by the movie "Fight Club", "You don't own posessions, they own you."

My personal advice, sell all your worldly posessions, find an abandoned house, take up residence. Then, start a club where middle aged men can pound on each other. Make sure they don't talk about it though, thats a biggy. Then, once momentum has started, take this club, and get them to preform various terrorists acts on those who would impose upon our freedom.

Once this has been achieved, the rest should fall into place. 😀

Great post I agree. They make stores seem so comfortable, Barry Manilow on the speakers, workers with smiles. When all they're doing is setting us back. Taking what we strive so hard to get. Trying to make us happy with the fact that they're destroying our dreams, our diginty, our freedom, our lives even. But do people really want to be free. Most are weak and can't maintain themselves, they would rather be told what to do and do it. If we took care of each other instead of only our selves or just our families we could truly rise as a nation, and put an end to these backwards ass laws and authorities. If they didn't kill us all first. MONEY, just paper, or is it. What about bartering things that are TRULY needed. People would be less inclined to waste things. and most of the products we sell export buy ect. would not even exsist. Washing machines toasters refridgerators, nothing but convienience, as is this computer I am posting with. Yeah I like it but could easily live without it if I had never been introduced to it. Television, it isn't even very interesting most of the time. Smoke some weed and watch the wind blow through the trees and I bet you'll be just/ if not more entertained than watching TV. Why do they give us "paper" for working our lives away. If everyone had a garden we could work for food. Yet we have Grocery stores that throw out thousands of pounds a food if not more a day. And what about all those starving kids we send money to every week. They could eat like we eat. But we have contests for already overweight people to see how much they can eat while children are lucky to get a coule bowls of rice a day. Seems like the governments got it all sorted out don't they. I gues I was born in the wrong time period. Sorry I'll stop my rant. Great Post.

I concur!

Say... I have a few hogsheads and about 32 small barrels of gunpowder... Anyone free around November 5?

Let me know!

I'm no Guy Fawkes, but that was funny....

While I definitely hate many of the effects of capitalism on the world, I have to admit that I'm somewhat of a materialist. I don't buy that much, but I love technology. Without money, technology doesn't usually go very far...

Still, in principle, I agree that money should not be given the kind of attention it often does....

RAY! I thought we already had this discussion about you taking pictures of my training camps!

Great movie!!! LOL

Financial concerns can indeed be a big pain in the arse. But, if we exercise a bit of self discipline, they are definately managable for most. I ended up declaring bankruptcy several years back because I was just charging things that I wanted and couldn't afford. Stupid! Now, I tend to ask myself is things are a want or a need. If it's truly a need I'll go for it. If it's merely a want and money is tight, I let it go. Freedom isn't just dependant upon the system. It's also dependant upon US and our ability to regulate our own habits...including those related to spending.

As people living our daily lives should we feel less of a person because we have more than someone , should we feel less of a person because someone has more than us . Are either of these two thoughts to make us feel selfish ? Materialism , where is the fine line , surely we could live without out a well built , secure home , or television to bring us bits of the world around us , or showers and washing machines for our convenient cleanliness , or supermarkets to bring us everything under the sun to eat . All these can either be excepted or rejected , both these two oppisites can offer us freedom and the choise to live as we choose . It's up to us individually to call it as we need it ..............

Unfortunately, you fail to realise that there are people on this planet who reject all of the above. They live happy, productive, and loving lives.

They are known to society as Hippies.

People don't like hippies for some reason. Though, I can't figure out why. It's Beatniks that I have a problem with...Stupid, pretentious, nonsense poetry reading, goatee wearing, motherfuckers!


Um. Anyway...You look at those people(hippies, I mean. Not dummy, dummy, dumbhead beatniks) and how little respect they get in society.

If you wish to live a life free of pretention, then you have to accept the fact the normal people(by that, I mean useless, sheltered, small-minded suburbanites and their SUV's) will shun you as you will not fit in to the "agenda."

You know what? I have NO fucking clue where I was going with this. I had six beer at a barbecue on an empty stomach, and I am fully enjoying the lack of comprehension I have for my own posts.

Carry on...
