This world is absolutely insane. Why is war the only way to solve a problem?? Have we not evolved enough to make reasonable decisons yet? Why do we have violence in this world? It all began because of the superiority complex. Most men possess it because they think they are better than most others and they should be listened to insdtead of the other. They believe what they say is right and always try to one-up the other. This is what created this social darwinism in society. The need/hunger to be better than everyone else and being proud of it. Men have held their heads up high as the leaders of the world and just look where they have lead us. Instead of working together to solve world problems, we are all in competition with each other. The United States, one of the most powerful countries in the world right now, is clearly abusing that power. Bush, someone who I have no respect for, has lead the country into war blindly and now has the entire world debating about it. How can one country cause so much turmoil? Well, with Bush at its head, they can and have caused disaster. Why else do you think the world is in such chaos and can't seem to co-operate? In my opinion, it is because of the terrible examples world leaders have set. Without them acting greedy and selfish, how would we be able to congregate and all act greedy and selfish? Without the leaders of the world, we have no union and because our leaders are so corrupt, our world is damaged to the core.
Isn't greed a fabulous thing? Power, money, and fame is all that matters in this world now and somehow everyone has to learn to deal with it. Great... do we get a choice in that or is that entire decision up to Bush? What if we don't want that power, money or fame? Most probably, we will be isolated from the rest of the world. Society is stuck in a rut and people like Bush are digging in deep and getting ready for the winter. So who will help get the world out of this power hungry rut? Who knows...

If you get the time, do read books by Ayn Rand (Fountainhead, Atlas Shrugged) where it is suggested that greed and selfishness are actually good. As for Bush, he just has a few months in power left and whoever succeeds him is unlikely to warmonger because of prevailing economic pressures.
We are at war in the middle east in order to control a large portion of the world's oil supply when our climate begins to become colder. Don't let the global warming chicken littles fool you. Ten years from now it's going to be a lot colder than it is now and our government wants to be ready for it.
