A few thoughts I get from time to time...

Post by Phoenixan »

I decided to post this on 3 forums, and yes, part of it is on a DA journal I posted. I'm extremely bored, so I might as well...

I saw on the news that the US is one of the richest nations on earth, money-wise, but yet, we're in debt. The whole world is in debt. Money is nothing but a number representation on a piece of paper, or on a computer monitor. Then, what is money, and what is everything even worth? Apparently, nothing is worth anything in terms of money value anymore since money isn't worth anything either. We're all in debt. There is nothing anymore.

And then another thing about the economy of countries. Why is the country's leader always blamed for economy if really, the economy depends upon how much people buy? THE PEOPLE. And do those that complain about the economy hate people like me, who don't go out and buy a new car, a $100 pair of shoes, or a $50 shirt, but instead buy cheaper things? President Bush has been blamed for the USA's failing economy, when really, it started falling at around the end of Clinton's administration; however, it the economy isn't dependent upon the president. So.. I guess the president is really an elected scape-goat for everyone else's problems?

...Discuss.. whatever... Just got bored and made a topic on this.

Well, the USA is the richest nation in the world, no doubt. Despite what's happening nowadays, I think it's not going to leave the first rank soon.
Anyways, money stands for the gold you should have ^^ It still represents something...

Well... there's not even gold that equals the amount of money that has been printed. $1 is not even worth it's amount in gold reserve. :?

Physical Networks initiates relationships when people introduce themselves to each other as they would in person. The software then sets a certain date, time, and place for users with similar interests to get together and carry on the relationship in real life.

Yet we steal, kill and kidnap for ransom just to get some dough.People even sue each other for money, even the best of friends, and then they hate each other.Money is Evil, it makes us greedy and when we act like that, we might end up like donald trump, a rich jerk with a bad hairstyle. :x

A human mind is an almost unimaginably strange thing.

Matyuv's mind is a completely unimaginably stange thing.
