I don't understand the "money ruins everything" rant.

Isn't money what's enabled you to sleep with a roof over your head? With the AC on when it's hot? To power the fridge that keeps your meat bacteria-free?

Isn't money what's allowed you to pursue an education, to make ceramics, to buy the music that's inspired you in whatever way? Do you think your professors would work for free? You think they care to teach you ceramics from the absolute goodness of their heart, or are they trading the lesson in exchange for the same thing that lets you keep a roof over your head and your own meat bacteria-free?

Do you think the artists who make the music that you love would make it for free? If nobody was listening or paying? And if so, aren't you just part of the machine for [literally] buying in and paying for their music? Do you expect the artist to work for free? Should the producer work for free? Aren't they entitled to a roof over their head?

Think about every single thing in this world that you enjoy or makes your life easier -- is the person/people that make that a reality for you not entitled to the currency that enables us to enjoy life & consume things (like heat and running water)?

When you have more flowers than you need - do you give them away, or do you trade them for money? If you trade them for money, have you been ruined?



Sorry bro. I just think the statement & sentiment is entirely misguided.

Have people done crazy shit for money? Yes. Do they still today? Yes. Is it right? No.

Have people done crazy shit for free too? Yes. Do they still do crazy shit for free? Yes.

Are most people reckless in their pursuit of money? No.

Have a lot of great things come about as a result of money as a motivating factor? Yes. Is that inherently evil? No.

The entire rap comes off as young and inexperienced and, to be honest, extremely fortunate. Go find a guy on the street with no place to stay for the night, ask him if he thinks money is evil. Or ask him if he'd love to have $50 to sleep in a warm hotel for the night.

Seems to me that most of the people who would agree that "Money ruins everything" are those without much.

For every person with that attitude, there are two more struggling, but without the attitude. Those are the ones who make it happen for the rest of us, every day.



Edit: Nice plants though!

Living my rich luxurious rich ORange Curtain life, I woke up, went to a local ceramics sale, dropped 150 on stuff to give as gifts to the fam and to use personally, bought stuff my friends made.

Then I got all my shopping done, 4.30 for deodorant aluminum free. got 2.

On my 3rd glass of some fancy wine i was gifted sitting in my perfect environment house with open windows and nothing really going on but people enjoying themselves.

And now im here.

But money still corrupts politics.

Drives corporations to throw away all human values for the sake of greed.

Religion is ironically very reliant on money.

Makes people kill.

Ruins countries and governments.

Pollutes the mind and soul.

pretends to be love.

Yeah I use money, who doesn't. But that doesn't mean because I do, I should not agree with the fact that what the concept is currently doing to our species, ways of life, and home is just not acceptable on any level.

Look at education... Money is the soul factor for its success and whats going on with it? Ruined... because of money and the lack of it... but fixed and perfect with money?

Hows that work, the double edge sword that we have to passively accept...

If you read what Immortal Technique says its not just about money.

I don't even know why we are talking about money, but on some real shit it ruins a lot of things.

Its so false and fake in itself. the grandest of grand illusions.

I vote with my money and use it on things like Dr. Bronners coconut oil which isn't cheap but at the same time as ethics behind their mission, like providing fair wages and proper compost for soil fertility... where they farm coconuts.

Good luck finding products like that in walmart where everything is cheap, yet the waltons make how much money, and worked how hard? But its only cheap because of how easily they can pollute some where else and get cheap labor that wouldn't be acceptable most other places...

I think the fact that we are so reliant for money to have a roof over our heads is a huge red flag. It shouldn't be like that...

we are the only species to pay to live on this planet. Soak that in for a bit because it really means a lot.

Straight up, money slowly but surely ruins everything.

I tell my friends and self I am a king, I live like a trucking king.
I eat farm fresh eggs... never hit a fridge... and 10$ lb bacon cause guess what

i got stupid fucking money... and im tired of seeing all the others with out it because a very select few psychologically need more...

gimme a kit kat bar yo, I need a break!

"An Activist is someone who cannot help but fight for something. That person is not usually motivated by a need for power or money or fame, but in fact is driven slightly mad by some injustice, some cruelty, some unfairness, so much so that he or she is compelled by some internal moral engine to act to make it better." - Eve Ensler

we are the only species to pay to live on this planet. Soak that in for a bit because it really means a lot.

I don't even know what this means.

We're also the only species to..

- Construct sewer systems so our streets aren't full of piss and shit
- Maintain said sewer systems
- Construct roads so you can get from A to B without destroying your car (which we also design, engineer, construct, and maintain)
- Have a formal education system
- Train people to train other people at said education system
- Construct buildings to house these education places
- Construct power plants to keep you warm at night and keep your music bumping'
- Research and design medicine that's damn near eradicated diseases that, just a few generations ago, afflicted many people (polio, measles..)
- Produce said medicine
- Construct an Internet (thanks, al!)
- Research and design microprocessors to constantly bring you new cool ways to access the weed growing site

and on and on and on and on and on. Seriously. Think about every. Single. Thing. ..That you enjoy and take for granted. You think people didn't work to make it happen? You think people should work for free? When you make your ceramics, are you going to give them all away? What about your cost to create it?

Let's compare this to other species. Let's take a cow. A cow is born in a pasture, grazes, makes more cows, and dies [and maybe becomes a bunch of burgers].

Doesn't once enjoy anything, in its entire life, that you enjoy before you walk into your first class of the day. Doesn't even have a cup of coffee! Not only that, the cow has no concept of currency. Why? Because what the f*ck does a cow need currency for?!

..and those burgers that the cow may end up as? What about the farmer that raises the cow [or soybean]? He's got to buy the cow, own the land, feed the cow, water the soybeans, etc. He's supposed to just give it away, because you want a burger or a bean?

A crayfish? Same deal. A newt? Yep. Amoeba? Yep.

Which species enjoys any of the luxuries that Humans do, while not having any currency?

I suppose humans could in fact live on this planet without paying, as you're opposed to. You'd be living on the street, without heat, without water, without access to clean plumbing, etc. In that respect, you'd be a lot like the cow in the pasture. Sound appealing? Knock yourself out!

A few posts ago, you were lamenting the lack of action/company here in your thread. I can't speak for everyone, but I've got a good feeling sh*t like this is exactly the reason.

Generally speaking, people come to this site have a common interest - growing cannabis. With that in mind, it's a bit of a turnoff to sift through to proselytizing to get to it.

To be honest, I personally quit participating in the thread when you got on one of these kicks a while back. The only reason I'm posting now is because I just can't stand the level of ignorance and simplicity with some of your attitudes.

No disrespect meant, but if you're looking for answers about why your thread is dead, you might be stepping all over them.

Nice plants tho!
Keep up the good work!

 

[bobblehead]

I wouldn't say he'd be without heat. Fire can be made for free. cow turds will burn among other things.

I wouldn't say without water either... maybe without clean water on tap.

Before plumbing and urbanization people would go outside and shit into a hole in the ground. Fill the hole up, dig another. Kinda gross but w/e.

It is kinda funny to read all this idealized on the internet though. Like ironic funny.

You are right about one thing silver, no other species is as stupid to throw away its spirit for "luxury" LOL and the whole cow analogy... okay?

I don't think you understand what money is and thats the problem.

You are seeing it how Patriotic americans see america. They can't fathom the fact that america is evil and corrupt because of how manipulated they are by that very system... making them accept something that can be changed. You are the same. Your reasoning for what is currently taking place is so dwarfed by the illusion of this wondeful matrix we live in, maybe it real or not, you create your future...

Why are you going to justify and accept things that are wrong, on every level...

Fuck. Get the idea that some one has to pay some one else for life, PLEASE.

Look at cancer, only around cause of the $. Fucking give me a kit kat bar.

Dont' gang up on me cause I want to change life as we know it for hte better of all of us and those in our futures... like you folsk with kids... you should be showing them the videos I posted about money and banking so that they can understand what things truly are before it is too late.

How old are you guys you haven't been able to think and analyze this life and see it for what it is? Drinking that fluoride?

Wut about all the aluminium in chem-trails but the fact that deodorant with aluminum is bad for you because the metal goes to your brain and causes memory problems like Alzheimers... early...

No wonder it says in god we trust on the money... fucking people worship that shit like its the answer to their problems hahaha.


And bobble - calling people ignorant really teaches them what they don't know. lol.

people don't like challenging their comfortable lives, they like how easy it is, and simple, to be a part of this system.

Thats not okay.

You still eating mcdonalds? lol
