Now what if all of us were classified as equal? I`m talking on a global basis. Would that reduce tensions between economic classes? Might this new classification reduce the struggle for those of us that aren’t as fortunate in the area(s) of economic and educational privilege? Like the socialist Karl Marx thought not too long ago Time is relative right, so the 19th century isn’t that old is it? I mean, I know that cutting a whole in a person’s head and letting them walk around like a broken dam (to cure their ailment) has been a great idea for eons now, but does it make sense today?

Does an evolving socialistic society have negative ramifications if imposed on a governmental system that is based on exactly the it’s opposite? Here’s an example: Could bad things happen if we tried to re-make a bird into a snake? Seriously, what would happen if we caught a little bird of some sort and ripped it’s feathers away along with it’s beak and extremities? Left with a head attached to a muscle “system” of a body , would it be a snake then, or just a mutilated bird? What if birds tried to re-make a snake into what they are? Would the consequences be as grim as the former?

If society is so lost that the only alternative is to entertain, and in fact, act on the notion that (because of our collective guilty conscience) we all must share our success through a financial canal,what results is a conclusion that all the wealth must be shared to make the world a better place, if this is the common consensus then we are in dire straights.

First of all, wealth by any measure doesn’t nor shall it ever become a form of measurement amongst level-headed and logical human beings, the idea in itself is ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous. How or at least for now, does the idea that through our daily work that fuels our trade system imply that by the acquisition (or in this case), the sharing of wealth justify peace and serenity within the populous of the world? Anyone and I MEAN ANYONE that ever tells you that if I can just have what you have I could do better (or in most cases) “I COULD BE BETTER THAN YOU!!” WITH WHAT YOU HAVE”…. should be seen as a person that has lost all faith in themselves and only wants to reap the reward without the labor.

If we are all equal then I agree, but I must shed light on one little tid-bit of information, JUST BECAUSE WE ARE EQUAL DOES NOT MEAN THAT WE ARE THE SAME! We are equal because we as individual people are the same,, We as individuals are a unique, and quantified collective force. We are not the same; if we were, then we would all be one same thing, a giant blob of Ooze, a collected item that has no real value or worth, together or separated, just a giant, smelly ball of OOoozzeeee.

The point is folks that no wealth or education will ever fulfill our heightened sense of ourselves, unless we CHOOSE to be the people that we are, not the people that OUR VERY OWN government might finagle us into being. Our lives started and our will as Americans, as human beings sustains this great nation of ours. Some of our nations architects (the framers of our nation) were atheists, others were straight Christians, and some believed that they could own a person to do their work for them(and all sorts of variances in between here and there). Slavery actually made sense then to some, submissiveness to a government made sense at the time, so did violent revolution as well. Just like cutting a hole in a persons head to cure a disease made sense for a few moments in time but the fact that they new there had to be a better way than the latter made a lot more sense at that time continuing to the present.

The idea of freedom makes sense (democracy), even though nobody was the same or necessarily equal at the time; our for-fathers broke away from England ;… they were still equal in the belief and concept that there is always a better way. If we do not strive to be better then we can never achieve the concept of the pursuit of happiness , and God forbid.. Greatness.

If we are all equal and still cannot provide for ourselves, cannot express our thoughts, or even fail in our endeavors, then no matter how passionate we are , we are not free, and our lives are not our own. We must embrace the strength and power that comes with our collective common interests, and if we are prohibited from thought, if we are constrained to a way of conformity that is proved to be repressive then we; we as a people, have suffered and failed ourselves. Are we not all the feather of the same bird, the conscience of equality and the integrity of truth? 100_2062
