Sometimes i wish more and more people get fired from their jobs

19. I love the "adults in charge" who are driving this bus to hell.

Productivity! Derp. Profits! Derp. Consumers! Derp. Wall Street! Derp. Human exceptionalism! Derp.

One way or another this civilization is going to die. We can put it down gracefully, with minimal damage the human spirit and the natural environment, or we can wait until Mother Nature beats this civilization to death with her big stick, dropping some surprise upon we can't handle. Global Warming? A plague upon ourselves or our major foodstuffs? Ocean acidification? Who knows?

We humans are nothing special. Many very innovative species have experienced exponential population growth in the past, only to crash, usually by extinction, sometimes by evolving and becoming a more cooperative species.

Most of our "economic productivity" is bullshit, hazardous to the natural environment, and toxic to the human spirit.
