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

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.
