World Problems

Recommended Posts

I am not trying to turn this into an Anarchistic/Radical/ Revolutionary website. It is by it's nature a Capitalist website. That being said, what do you think are some of the biggest problems facing the world?

 

War is a given. I would like to add Income Inequality, And the growing incarceration rate

( at least in my country).

Sustainable resources and population growth. Although, that's a problem that the planet will eventually solve on it's own.

 

I might add: Entrenched ideologies and politics.

"Entrenched ideologies and politics"

 

That's a very good one. And I agree. But I hope the thread does not boil down to a

Left/Right bashing party.

 

And yes, sustainable resources will take care of itself,

Not to worry... I'm an equal opportunity basher. We create our own problems; it can't be helped we are but human. More correctly, I may have omitted the word "politics", as it just confuses the issue.

today its my wife!

Yesterday she claimed it was me.

 

...............more seriously.

 

I think its a recurring problem in world history but I think this reverberates across a lot of issue these days and is getting worse. (it could arguably be applied to politics, religion, personal life...etc)

 

The issue boils down to one of shifting risk and not taking responsibility.

 

This is largely a result of corporatisation (and dont worry I am a capitalist also) and the the fact that now you have corporates that have more rights than individuals, more power than governments, individuals within the companies that have little personal responsibility, get paid for failure and basically have to answer to few people.....I could go on, but I think you get the message....and yet I dont advocate govt doing a better job.

 

No accountability.

 

This has resulted in compliance gone crazy and everyone who can writing 50 page legal documents saying all care no responsibility and f..k you if it goes wrong because ultimately some other sucker will end up paying.

 

(not sure where this rant is going as i am enjoying the day :), but this is an issue I am seeing more and more these days. Maybe I should just join the boat...anyone wanna buy a bridge?:rofl:)

The biggest problem is the mentality of people. We do not value things that must be valued but all we think about is to how to make money. We are growing with the mentality "how to get money" instead of "how to become a better person" and this is the biggest problem.

 

On the other hand this atmosphere is created for us.. we are left no time to even think about what is happening aound

1. Too many people sucking on the goverment teet.

 

Do not think for a moment that I am referring only to the low income or impoverished. The wealthy or special interest groups snag a much bigger chunk than the poor do. he poor receive a pittance in comparison. We could easily fund the poor. We need to borrow to fund the wealthy.

when I read this I had a laugh and googled "images for people on camera phones"

Nothing funnier than watching people film something they are watching live, rather than experiencing it. Maybe I am old school....buy the DVD for later and enjoy the moment...... but often we choose not to think about what is happening around us.

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful. Remember, sometimes what you throw in the garbage is something that someone wishes ever to have.” – ElZee, Quora   Profits from free accurate cryptos signals: https://www.predictmag.com/
