Our Vehicles and Why I Hate Everything
This essay is more than just about one of the new thirteen bloodlines of the Illuminati. This essay is about how we are consistently fucked over by our government and the people who claim to be looking out for us. My first arguement on this is that we have these telephones that have GPS capabilities, MP3 players, can make calls, can surf the web, can store all of the data that we need for our lives on a daily basis and all of this is powered by a battery the size of a baseball card. That is amazing technology. So, why are we still driving cars that waste valuable natural resources? Oil is temporary. It takes thousands of years for oil to form and we are, becasue of our addiction to oil, depleating the thing we live on. So if we are able to have all these fancy toys to play with that allow real time credit card processing and the ability to speak with anyone on the planet at any time we would like, why the fuck are our cars still running on something we don't have alot of? We can make electricity. That's not hard to do, it comes from the fucking sky all the time. We can make it with water, with wind, with our own human energy, and still none of our major car companies are spending any extra money on designing a car that doesn't have to run off of some form of liquid. For awhile they had a gasoline/electric hybrid. Then, a few months after I was seeing the commercials for that, it disappeared and we started making cars that can run on ethanol. So the fuck what? Ethanol for christ sake. Why are we worried about using food to make our fuels when so many people in the world are dying from malnutrition? Seriously, don't we have enough famine and poverty on the planet? I guess we just have an over abundance of food to waste on making our cars move faster. Wheat and corn are useful for sustaining human life. Couldn't we grow more crops to feed the needy instead of powering our cars with it? I think it is clear that the automobile companies are in the pocket of the government. The Ford family has links high up in the government. Our vice president has massive amounts of money in the oil game. We are fighting a war over oil and gas prices are skyrocketting. Most of us can't even afford to fill up our tanks anymore. We are being fucked by the people who control everything. They build the cars we drive and provide the gasoline that is needed to make the cars run. They also print the money that we use to pay for the gas that goes into the cars and run the businesses that we work for that pay us the money. It's just a huge cycle of debt. How much more advanced is the technology that we see on a daily basis going to become while our modes of transportation seem to fall back before one of us stands up and says, "NO!"? We also have companies and pop-culture icons that are coming out and saying that we need to conserve our gas and electricity. They tell us to ride the bus to work instead of driving because it is better for the environment. Sure, it may be better for the environment, but not better for the consumer. Most bus routes, at least in my city are way out of the way of most jobs and businesses. In order to ride the bus to your job or to a place of business, you would need to take at least two buses. That's two dollars both ways because they did away with the transfer services because gas prices went through the roof. Sure, that's only four dollars a day for a ride to and from work, which is less than the price of gas to get there and home, but how many of us have the time to devote a two, maybe three hour bus ride to our day? If you have to be at work at nine in the morning, that means you have to get on bus number one by about six. But bus scheduals don't run like that. None of the buses come at exactly six, so you would have to get on the 5:45 bus to make it there. So, you would have to get up at four thirty in the morning to shower, shave, get dressed and walk down to the bus stop to get on the bus at 5:45 a.m., to get on the other bus by seven to get you to work by nine. Then, on the way home, the bus comes at 4:53, you don't get out of work until five on the dot and get penalized if it's a minute before. The next bus comes at 5:20, so you get on that one which gets you on the bus to get home by 6:30 and you arrive home at about eight at night. That means you have to eat dinner, get your clothes ready for tomorrow, if you have kids get them to bed and make sure they're ready in the morning before you can go to bed. By that time it's almost midnight and you are only running on four and a half hours of sleep, if you are the kind of person who's head hits the pillow and they are out, before you have to go back to work. It's this kind of reasoning that they don't want you to think about. Don't worry that it takes you two and a half hours to ride the bus to and from work. Don't worry that it uses more gas than a car because it is stopping at every block for fifty miles. With being deprived of sleep, you can't think about scenarios like this. And with the media constantly bombarding us with reality shows, shitcoms, and nighttime drama, you really don't have time to focus on the news. As you think about more ways in which the government is trying to get us to remain stupid, remember that it only takes one person to make a difference. It takes a movement not to be struck down.
