Regardless of how evolved we think we are, we will always live in a Lord of the Flies society. Mankind cannot help himself. Metaphorically, if the Union is in control, they are abusive. If Corporate is in control, they are. People live in cycles of struggle for control, and when we get it, we have no ability to wield it. Some do for a short time, but eventually, somebody wants that fat kid's glasses. To build fires. For the greater good.
I hate politics. It is nothing more than propaganda to me. Who can say the thing that makes me think my life will improve if I vote for them. I wish they would just balance the budget, help the elderly and needy, and protect us from Hitler. I know it is infinitely more complicated, but I choose not to play. I have laundry to do. I will vote. But I will not waste my time with speeches and promises and photo ops. Our lives are just a vapor and then we are gone and forgotten. Maybe this time in history will get a paragraph in a book 1000 years from now. I have no idea. I just want to eat, love, and learn what God wants me to learn today. I do respect leaders. I live with some. I just want us to use our super powers for the good.
