Human Civilisation!

Past, present and future.

Plagued with conflict caused by political, religious, philosophical disagreement and a great deal of
disguised self interest from materialist minded individuals.

So many complex and elaborate systems set up in the name of Good, God, and practically anything else you can think of.

But why such complexity? Why so many parties, why so many sides and so much arguing.
Governments play rule like a football league, always fighting for ground in the polls, regardless as to what the issue is,
undermining good policies so as to discredit and ruin the credibility of the opposition including decisions that affect multi millions of people's lives.

All with the ultimate aim of seizing control of public spending, so that they and their peers can then profit from the control, directly or indirectly.

But at what cost? The planet? The people? War? Existence itself?

Surely, a system that is designed around true humanitarian philosophy would serve Humanity better, well at least
the whole of Humanity? Instead of governmental systems simple serving just the top 2%, the Wealth Supremacists, who capitalise out of even "Global Recessions". While people die they party on.

If the world ran on such a philosophy, putting all Human Life and Planet first before profit, with Profit only coming after each individual on the planets essential needs are provided.

Then surely, we would have at least a good starting point.
Over the past few decades, I have been extremely disheartened and frustrated at the inequality and poverty there is in the world. Then there is War after War, political disagreements, Wide Spread Drug Addiction, and all sorts of other problems.

Such a world of troubles is breeding environments that create monsters out of children, and shamefully so.
But instead of addressing these real issues, the issues are sensationalised by the press, journalism, politics and those in the entertainment industry and exploited to further their causes and in many cases, to generate capital.

The entertainment industry, journalism and politics all push more and more, to break new boundaries, to go further than those who have come before, to make a name for themselves and again, ultimately to profit from their endeavours materialistically yet again for selfish self gain.

Presently, many of the wealthier countries in the world do what they can to break away from unions with other countries, so they can avoid the responsibility and burden of helping their fellow man from neighbouring countries.

So quick are they to forget the world wars that tore our poor planet and human race apart.
So quick are they to forget this friendship and love that they shared and the victory of good over evil that prevailed,
but at such a high cost.

Humanity is yet again stands at the cross roads, where we have the choice to help save our brothers in neighbouring countries, from their hardships and inevitable suffering, but instead, our "leaders" push for separatism, so as to divorce the countries that burden us with their weak economies.

Those who have more than they will ever need push hard for this change, despite how little they actually need more!
They decide to sacrifice so many innocent people's lives in these unfortunate countries, all for self gain.

So quick we forgotten our Humanity, and the fact that we exist only because in World War 2 we did stick together.
Now, we allow ourselves to be divided so that our elite can escape tax.

Perhaps it is time those with more than they will ever need, cash in their rainy day funds and help!
I am sure many of these people will not suffer if they have one less diamond ring, one less jewel studded crown,
one less castle in the sky.

So that multi millions do not have to suffer and die.
BR-EXIT - like the man who's runs out the pub door when its his turn to buy the round...
Selfish Cowardly and dishonourable.

Where has Humanity Gone?

All that rosy hot air about human this and human that--did you realize that the people who most claim to love Humanity are usually the ones who hate the Human right in front of them?
