That's hardly an appropriate response to what I just said. Not at all related to any statement I made.
This is why it's so hard to reach you, and I see now that it's not something that should be done online.

Do you see yourself as a representative for those without your same privileges?

People in China are fighting their government to be happy right?

Well as you describe it people in America seem pretty happy. There are a lot of resources, and because of that people can become fat, docile creatures who spend their time socializing. Who are you to say that's such a bad thing?
Whilst on one hand we have the "sheep", on the other hand we have the "creative" people who like doing stuff with their lives and making progress for the world. To me that seems like the perfect symbiotic relationship between two types of people, one keeping the world running, so to speak, and the other steering humanity in a direction they seem fit.

I get what you are saying, I truely do. But I feel as though you're looking at it from a wrong perspective. You cannot emphatise with that way of thinking because you are different from it. You can be proud at that if you like, but it does not mean that the role these people have in a society should be undervalued. Don't you agree?

 

EDIT: Also I was curious, how does a fat "bacteria" hurt the economy? Seems to me the typical American consumer does quite the oposite.

 If the creative people were at an even ratio to the lazy people, this system would be okay. But what I see is that the creative people are the older generation, and then the new generation as well, but I feel like success rates are much lower. Consider all the recent college grads who complain they can't get jobs-- as if they expect a job to be available to them. They need to understand that those jobs don't just make themselves, but they don't do they? They want to live in their lazy bubble. They want to be told what to do so they don't have to think, and they can dedicate their time to socializing because the TV tells them that's normal.

We need to be pro-active as a soceity and teach people that success is a mindset, By doing nothing, and denying this flaw exists, we allow it to grow.

You think extroverts are all stupid and lazy and the reason for unemployment, and that you, an introvert who claims to smoke weed daily, are most likely also a sociopath and a martyr for the stupid people below you?

How do you define creative?

The ratio doesn't need to be even, because a small group of people can control a large group of other people without problems if both parties needs are being met.

There will always be lazy, unmotivated people leeching off the system. But in my experience it's far less worse than you portray it to be.

You don't put a lot of trust in other people huh?
