Will Social Energy Drive Change?

Having experienced first-hand working with scumbag bosses, I can understand some of the objections people have to the excessive accumulation of wealth by a small handful of self-serving power-players with big egos and big lies to get them to where they are now; and that includes some of the mongrel electric car cowboys I have come across who have scammed millions from governments and wasted resources with little fruition for the betterment of society.

Yes another ramble, but interesting times nonetheless, paralleled by the Death of Jobs, mirroring the drive of human endeavor blemished by the darker side of opportunism at the expense of human liberty and quality of life.

Some sobering links; news spread by the people, not the compromised media.

The result of all this? Who knows; people have a tendency to hush into quietness, but history shows that social movements can bring about change not only to the tactile things around us (what we do, buy and drive) but to the hearts of fellow humans who may learn one day that ‘greed is not always good’.

I’d have to go along with with you one this subject. Which is not something I usually do! I enjoy reading a post that will make people think. Also, thanks for allowing me to speak my mind!

I heard a couple of guys talking about this in the New York subway so I looked it up online and found your page. Thanks. I thought I was right and you confirmed my thoughts. Thanks for the work you’ve put into this. I’d love to save this and share with my friends.
