So here's looking at you kid...
Sitting here in the institute listening in on some conversations that are going on, participating when I feel the need. I really have become bored with the internet in a lot of ways. I can't find any cool MMO's that please me, I never know what I want to look up, Facebook doesn't entertain me for very long periods of time, and it definitely doesn't satisfy. Odd that. So I just browse for things to do, and as I said recently, I remembered that I had this here and wanted to try it out for a bit.
So yeah.
So people are stupid. I know a lot of rather intelligent individuals, but people as a whole are really stupid. Case in point, the current administration. Voted in by ignorant and above all stupid people. I mean, seriously. I wanna see someone run for President without making impossible claims. I'd vote for him in a heartbeat, just for being honest. I mean, nothing else has really worked for us, so lets try something new: an honest and straightforward administration. Imagine this. The candidate's campaign promises are that he will do everything in his power for the good of the country and its people. The end. No promising to be out of debt in x amount of time or out of the war in y years or bullshiz like that. I mean, there is obvious a large amount of information about the way the government works and what we have available to us and how our relations are with the world that isn't privy to anyone until they become the president. A first-year rookie senator isn't gonna know beforehand what he's gonna be handed when he gets elected, plain and simple. I mean, he even made the official statement after being elected that he was aware that he'd made promises he couldn't possibly keep. I mean, lets get everyone out of Guantanamo right away. yeah right. I mean, seriously. Its like campaign promises made when people run for student body office at their high school. "I'll get vending machines put in every hallway and free pizza in the cafeteria for everyone!" Ummm.....duh. Not happening. Ever. But everyone votes that way cause they have this irrational trust in promises made by people running for any office. I have an idea. I'll run for president and just Topper my way through the campaign. My opponent says he'll reduce the debt? I'll claim that I'll turn the deficit into a surplus, start government industries to make money and give it to every citizen. No more taxes america! who wouldn't vote for that? I would...if I could be shown that it is not only viable but that its actually going to be done. Cause I make a point of using my God-given intelligence to rationally and logically think about the things people say to me. Duh.
