my evaluation of the class system in america

when i said i'd have more to write about in biology, i had no idea.
we are talking about fertility rate. we got on the subject of contraceptives, and nosek brought a bag of condoms as a teaching aid, and as a joke after reading the different kinds, asked if anyone wanted some. the kid behind me hollars, yo, i'll take one. yep. then, the guy next to me. but as nosek is giving the second guy a handful, asking if he prefers lifestyle or durex, the one behind me asks if he has any magnums. "no, just one size fits all." not many people heard it, but i'm just so very glad i did.

so i read an article today about a woman who was kicked off a southwest airlines flight because she was wearing an anti-bush tshirt. it had pictures of him and cheney, and said "meet the fuckers." and i guess some people on the flight complained, so the flight attendants said she could only stay on the flight if she changed her shirt. she refused.
conservatives piss me off.
just because you don't like what someone else has to say, it doesn't give you the right to demand them to change. i don't like republicans, but i'm never going to tell people to change who they are because it annoys me. i'm not going to sit on a plane and tell someone who is wearing a pro bush shirt that i don't think they should be aloud to wear it. people who are closed minded make me wish i lived in canada. or australia. but they have an appauling history of treatment towards the aboriginals, much like we do towards native americans. so maybe i'll move to france.
oh, but americans hate france because they wouldn't join a pointless bloodbath war that we shouldn't be involved in. oil isn't that important. we have the money to research alternative fuel sources, why don't we do it? we are sucking this world dry, and the only people who are benefitting are rich tycoons who don't need more money. then you get people like the citizens of new orleans who have some of the richest culture in the world, but because they are poor and black, it doesn't make sense to reinforce a seawall that could possibly save their lives and livlihoods one day. no, instead we'll put that money into the building of a bridge between two island in alaska that will never see vehicle traffic because NO ONE ON EITHER ISLAND HAS A CAR. i'm not making it up. just look it up. this country has such a skewed view of wealth that it makes me sick. my father has worked his ass off for more than 40 years in jobs that don't give him any respect, and he can barely afford to send me and my brother to college, hoping that one day we'll be better off than he ever was. but then you get family who buy brand new cars for their kids every year because "they deserve it." people that waste money are the scourge of the earth. i wish that communism worked more than just on paper, because evening out the horrific gap in wealth of americans should be a top priority. there is no middle class anymore, just rich and poor. it shouldn't be like that. pretty soon it's going to become so dramatic that the poor won't even be able to survive. we're going to revert back to 1600s eruope where people below a certain income level are treated like dirt.




wow. i was typing that with so much fury and anger that my fingers are cramping. i just get heated about injustice and disrespect.
