Other than our initial decision to establish a democracy, when have we ever led the world in anything dealing with societal matters. I can't think of one thing. Maybe some of you can.

If someone changes everything about them (interests/style/beliefs), does that mean he/she is no ...

Sticks48 comments on Sep 8, 2019:

Sometimes one can find themselves being who they think they are suppose to be, letting family, friends, even society pressure them. When we feel uncomfortable in our own skin and decide to take a different path, this is when we may become who we really are. Don't confuse growth with change. Excluding most conservatives, most people do grow and change their way of looking at some things as they gain experience and knowledge. IMO

Ridiculous! So all of these folks are getting cancer, and their families and friends are getting cancer, but they are sitting on the cure. Cancer is not just one disease. There are several types of cancer, and no one type of treatment is effective and or cures all. People survive leukemia and pancreatic cancer. Those use to be death sentences, not long ago. I hate conspiracy theorists. They never ever have proof to back up their BULLSHIT!

I am not so sure.

Sticks48 comments on Sep 7, 2019:

You are right. Almost everywhere throughout history this has been true. If you think about all of the leaders throughout history Kings, Queens, dictators, and Popes who had the sole power in their hands to really make other peoples lives better and did the opposite. I don't include modern democracies because the power is shared and it is much more complicated trying to get things done, but the self serving bastards in those systems are just as bad.

I just kind of look at my real life. I know quite a few people, but there are only a very few I really enjoy spending time talking for any length of time. Some folks have moved just like people here leave. Some folks that I met when I moved here are not really a part of my life anymore as there have been folks here I have messaged with or talked to on the phone who have ghosted me or we just ran out of shit to talk about. So this place is not dissimilar to my everyday life, except from a distance.

If we were a nation of dirt farmers riding to town in a buggy for supplies, yeah we could have small government, but WE AIN'T!!!
