Lets Fast Forward - Lets Rewind

Lets Fast Forward
Lets re-wind
Lets bring back true love this time
Do you remember the perfect garden together
When we created such beautiful things
In our humanly bodies as Adam and Eve?

You made a perfect tree
and told me to stay
because you were afraid that I would stray
I didn't think that was fair
and when I ate the apple
you banished me away

Years later you came back as Caesar
and I as Cleopatra
I had a secret... I found the best player
Mark Antony and I had a perfect plan
I was going to steal your heart
and he was going to take you apart
but something grew inside me and you
something only true love could do

Mark Antony was mad
and felt like we had ruined his perfect plan
he killed you in front of me
and that's when I knew
we had to teach the world to love too

We kept trying to get it right
leaving lots and lots of clues
but every time I got close
The world would take me away from you
but Mark Antony taught us the best lesson of all
that love will always prevail

He showed it to us through movies
He brought it to us through cartoons
He kept the knowledge going
And when fear faced it self
He was able to save me and you <3

Isn't that nice, I love to see all the money going to the well deserving rich. They at least know what to do with it, rather than those idiotic local government members who don't know anything about what is right for their community...seriously though, whoever thinks that high fructose corn syrup and cigarettes are bad...

Ilya Baykin There's totally a silver lining to the shitstorm of near-collapsingness engulfing our fair nation:
Fewer school days means more time to play.
Fewer cops means there no one to catch you stealing tv's when your unemployment runs out.
Less jail money means non-violent offenders aren't going to be locked up anymore, leaving them free to steal tv's when they can't find jobs, with no cops to catch them. The pawn shops are going be well stocked for the next few years!
Did I mention that the impending budget collapse of regulatory authority is sure to lead to the experiment in lassez-faire Ubermensch-driven capitalism that the liberty-lover demographic has been angling for ever since Ayn Rand told them to think of themselves as Atlases? It'll be hilarious!

Desirée Goehner whattt?? you mean you don't like being part of a consumeristic capitalist society were the rich get richer while the idea of the greater good of society is completely thrown away disregarded... tisk tisk tisk

Ilya Baykin Au contraire - it's not that the would-be Atlases throw away the idea of the greater good. It's just that they're terribly mistaken about what makes for greater good. There's nothing wrong with being part of a consumeristic capitalist society - it's hardly the last possible evolution of a democracy, and I can think of many worse societies besides. There's something wrong with being a helpless consumption unit trapped in a rigged pretend-capitalist scheme which is being sold to you as Freedom(tm). For more detailed ranting, come to my seminar, EconHist 316: How Finance and the Reagan Playbook Killed America, coming to a smoke-filled kitchen near you starting Summer 2011.

Desirée Goehner you should watch the full version of this and realize why we shouldn't be consuming mindlessly. We are destroying everything so we can buy things. So yeah, there is an issue with being in this current state of society because as of now we continue to make minimal efforts to protect our resources and people all over this world....

Ilya Baykin A change in consumer culture is obviously needed. Please, though, rest assured that I went to your school, and am, to my great dismay, coming back to it, and thus require no brain-cleansing on the subject. I just happen to find the whole game funny, hence the tone of my commentary.

Ilya Baykin Also, like most people who never knew a system worse than this one, you missed the point that a non-consumption-based economy can be far worse for the environment - the former Soviet Union is in far worse shape that the US. The tragedy of the commons is typically more tragic under communism.

Desirée Goehner In the "The tragedy of the Commons" hardin accounts for people being individual social actors. He disregards communication, collaboration, and the importance of community, which are all very important aspects of a high functioning society. ...
