    there are so many hollow battles you can get caught wasting your entire life fighting for between the hours of 9-5. Most the conflicts in this world are simply that of clashes of power and ambition and their would seem to be little cause left in this second babylon so overwhelmed with materialism. twenty years ago 75% of the people that went to college did so because they had a vision or a dream for their life. Now that same survey turns up 75% quoting money as their reason for going to college. When you break it down money is nothing. It is that which will either steal your life or give you the power to enslave others, relatively speaking.

    Im tired though thats all I got for now, hope it helped, Peace!

    The family was created to vent the stress of the proletariat in a way that didn't threaten capitalism, take away the family and replace it with a close nit comunity will give the working person the strength they need to stand up for themselves with out the responcibility of having to look after the family.

    The modern family has become centered and inwards looking, causeing pressure and friction that can often over power young people, and (studies show) can lead to skitzophrenia. Again in this situation replacing the family with a commune would reduce the pressure and mental stress on small family inderviduals.

    (Please don't get the wrong idea, I'm from a small family, I'm not saying people from small families are skitz)
