How to Change the World

If you want to change the world then keep reading; if not, thanks for your time and I hope you enjoy the rest of your life, no hard feelings here. I’ll leave some space so you don’t have to view the rest of my writing.

This is why you’re here isn’t it?

Ok, so if you’re here then its because you really care about yourself; your family and friends; the environment and all forms of life; equality and justice; the pursuit of truth and happiness; and love. Its ok if you only care about a few of the things mentioned above, the important part is that you care. That alone separates you from the billions of people that are apathetic to living, it means that you’re special, and if you really want to, then you can truly change the world.

We are caged birds looking to burst through one day, and soar into the horizon, endlessly searching for our happiness while experiencing freedom. Yet, our wings have been clipped; our food supply is limited to only seeds and water; our sleeping schedule is determined for us; our world is a 2-foot steel cast cage with a tiny-hinged door that we despise. Your master determines everything for you; you have no say. You were brought into this world for such a life, when you were born they said …

Welcome to the system!

(Sorry that our welcoming committee wasn’t available to greet you formally. They were off writing senseless tickets to those whom the system labels as deviants. Some were massively advertising overpriced products in order to get your money. Our secretary’s off today, she gets 1 week off each year! – It’s something that you should look forward to as well!

In our system you can work 40 hours a week for a “substantial amount of pay”, you can: eat, sleep, shit while sitting on porcelain commodes, read the newspaper and get the low-down on what we think is important for you to know, pay “small” taxes each year, buy a house under a loan that will take you 30 years to pay, go to our wonderful public schools that look to educate your child on what we feel is important, and if you die your funeral will only cost 3000 dollars (no worries though, we have loans for that too!)

We’re so glad you were able to be part of our system, but then of course if you didn’t participate … you’d be dead. So we’re happy to see that you are with us and not against us; the latter could put you in a lot of trouble … its not a threat or anything though.)
