Why do the pushy, bossy and downright selfish peoples seem to get whatever they like? How is it that these peoples can walk all over everyone else and then not notice that they take their ideas, money, land and culture? These same people claim other people's things for their own without a bat of an eyelash - I guess they feel they've earned it when they have worked so hard a bullying. I am tired of it. The Aboriginals, the African Americans, indentured laborers, and people taken into the salve industries have had it the worst on our planet, and most of this has been at the hands of European descendants. There is evil that lurks in many people, but I am a humanist and fundamentally believe that everyone has the capacity to be good. Why is it, then, that statistically the people have been the most "evil" have always been of European descent? Why are these people the ones full of hate and ready to destroy? Why is it that over and over the peoples of our earth that have values are ready to lay down and the people that have no values will be too happy to take from everyone else - and some how those assholes always win. Well, maybe those good people are tired of being taken advantage of and will finally stand up and make their voices heard. Perhaps it is time that good people everywhere just stopped letting assholes take advantage of them and insist on good winning, not evil.
I apologize for the vagueness of this post. I don't really want to bitch about anything specific. I am just a little angry about many little things, but mostly I feel like there a lot of people in my life that are extremely selfish and self centered and I have had to endure them for entirely too long. they steal peoples personality, their style, their money and I would not be surprised if their descendants stole this land and people. They are ugly on the inside and out. Everything about them is offensive. I hope they don't reproduce because they can't think outside of themselves and their children will have to be like me and raise themselves, and then when they are grown up, raise their parents.
Which brings me to my last point in this rant. This point is much more specific. I was wondering the other day why most people (and by most I mean everyone except wealthy people) don't sit down and teach their kids how to
manage money. I figure it is because they themselves don't know how and it is a point of embarrassment. The truth is that this is the reason our countries have found themselves in a massive credit crunch and one of the reasons why poor people stay poor. My mom did teach me how to keep my bank account balanced and how to make a basic budget so that I would not overspend - but she didn't ever mention the word savings account, she definitely didn't teach me about investments, and now I know why. I am reaching an age where I need to focus on my life, and my mom should have her retirement, savings and investments sorted out, instead I think she's been selfishly spending all of her life and not planning for her future, and now I have to help her out. i figure she simply doesn't know and nobody taught her. Now I have to choose whether to have kids or if I should take care of my mom ... how could she do this to me? What's worse is I am not alone, there is a whole generation of boomers that have done this to their children. I just have the misfortune of being an only child. I will never do this to my kids, if I ever get to have any, and I will teach them how to manage money. My kids will be wealthy and so will theirs. My children will be kind and they will not be taken advantage of. Perhaps they will become a famous politician ... so they can do whatever they like:
