Amen to that! There has always been the elite and the masses. The former always tries to control the latter with promises, threats, myths, religion and enough material satisfaction to keep us from complaining (revolution) too vociferously.

As long as we need leaders and as long as we give up our rights for "the benefit of the greater good," we will always be held down and used. "Leadership" is a ticket to corruption. We are creators of our own perpetual problem. We are a part of a society and go along with accepted procedures and mutual needs, like defense, health care, education, torts. That is good. But when we abdicate responsibility for our selves, we ask for the crap that we continue to get.

As for me, I'm looking for a mountain cave to spend my remaining days. I will learn to speak "eagle." And descend only when absolutely necessary. Tovarich!

E JACK! YOU LATE!
Never gargle while yodelling.

True dat. The movie says it all. But it seems the whole world is going mad! Supposed 'terror' has everyone running around like chickens with their heads cut off! Who REALLY has the power these days? Who REALLY is the enemy these days? It seems there needs to be a changing of the guard!! Viva LaRevolucion!!

While you're changing the guard, I've got to change my shorts...

PHEWH!-Yes please do!

Saw that a good year ago.... twice... It made me laugh and think at the same time......

At first, we all know what we're doing, we just don't know if it's right or wrong...

The only humor I can find in this movie is derived from the utter irony of how we(as human beings)can betray ourselves in the pursuit of so called "progress" and "happiness"...but to say that this is a 'bittersweet' humor-is an UNDERSTATEMENT to say the least! I fear for the youth-the next generation that will have to suffer the neglect and self destruction of their fathers and grandfathers. In truth what is happening now, on some level, is not unlike what has been going on for who knows how long: Each generation leaving behind a big mess for the next to try to wade though-but the messes are getting TOO big and if people don't start to WAKE THE FUCK UP this will all end in the extinction(or close to it)of mankind. Maybe you need to go back and watch the movie again and actually take it seriously-tell all your friends to watch it and maybe your friends or someone they show it too will work towards a change before it's too late! You know that billions of dollars are spent to explore space to find OTHER INHABITABLE PLANETS-hmmm I wonder why?

That's funny.... I dont recall telling you what I was specifically laughing at...... It's about damn time someone was able to send such messages with indisputable scientific and historical evidence... I laughed alongside all the points they made and how my point of view was just split up and magnified piece by piece in this movie...... You know... most of my friends have actually seen this movie.... and one exactly said "this is what they should have on the History Channel"..... Now seeing you this serious means that you haven't really had the general idea in your head this whole time....... And I see that as funny; you trying to get at me about all this....... I know the U.S. is around $9 trillion in debt and I also know that this is just going to get worse. As long as America wins wars, it's gonna get worse........ We're gonna lose this Iraqi war somehow and that just might teach us a lesson.....

I wasn't trying to "get at" you-I was just confused on what you thought was so funny What I mostly felt when I saw it was shame-shock-anger-disgust and finally sadness-knowing things are bad-is one thing-but just laughing them off seems counterproductive! So I am trying to do the only thing I know I can-and that is to tell as many people as I can in hopes eventually that it will reach the ones that CAN work toward a change-it all starts with awareness-keep spreading the word!!!!

That's why its always good to ask lol, but good luck sending out the message. I'll join you in the revolution, but first I gotta finish my vegetables '¬_¬.....
