A ZERO SUM GAME

A ZERO SUM GAME

That Israel will once again sabotage the so called mid east peace process, or that US will carry out air strikes inside Pakistan, that US will send personnel in Pakistani territory. Or that the US government would want to spy on its citizens or limit their freedoms are not real news. Nor is the attempt of the US government to censor a book critical of its underhanded dealings in the name of national security. It is all old news. Not worthy of more attention.

Could it be that we are kept dull, could it be that we are doing it to ourselves,could it be a conspiracy? Just like in Any third world country, when people are hungry or looking for work nothing else matters, you are just trying to survive, damn the freedoms,and who worries about a tyranny?

While we wait for the establishment of the "New World Order", we fail to realize that it has already happened. Like I said in the " New Word Order, 2003", when you fail no one cares, we have too many people in the world already to care about someone who we have no use for and that they are not making a positive contribution any way.

But then there is this, millions of homeless and jobless (more of them world wide) makes for better profits for bankers and the industrialists.  And as we need more people with better education for today's job market, we fail to realize that there are no jobs in the market, A job created in China or India only means that a job is lost somewhere else, like US for instance. Yet we are talking about a recovery in the auto industry while we are making half as many cars, a stabilization in housing prices while the people are being put out on the streets, and more and higher education while the college tuition is going up by 12percent per year.

In a "Zero Sum Game" there is a win and there is a loss, the win and loss negate each other out, so if we only focus on the wins the losses do not matter. But then there are real losers, it might be you, it might be you  in the next go around.  

A truth is only true if accepted as such, if not then it is not truth anymore.

There is a silly  game, a card or a key tag on one side it says" How to keep an idiot busy, see the other side" of course the other side says the same thing too. For the past thirty or forty years we had Democrats and Republicans in congress and the white house, we have talked about family, education, poverty,  budgets, media, arts, you name it then tell me one problem, one thing, anything we have resolved. The fact is we are spending  ever more monies, on everything, and have nothing to show for it. Not only  we are more in debt than any nation ever was, we are also more in  debt than the rest of the humanity combined and we are "the richest nation on earth", it would be funny were it not so very very sad.


LIFE IS A GAME OF CONNECT THE DOTS, IF YOU DON'T CONNECT ALL THE DOTS OR DON'T CONNECT THEM IN THE RIGHT ORDER YOU NEVER GET THE PICTURE
