If we were to start a campaign to save the world, where should we start? Obviously, a lot of people see there are a lot of problems in the world. So, out of all of them, what do you think is the worst and humankind should tackle it right away?

Poverty? Famine? Global Health? Perfect the First-World countries so they can help others? Or bring the Third-World countries up to date? Make one world power? Disease?

Where would someone start saving the world?

Lol.

Not everyone in America is a middle to high class American. Just because you and your friends across America claim to see so many people at malls doesn't make a difference, nor holds weight.

The majority of Americans are middle class. Why the fuck should we cater to minorities, when we clearly have our own issues and things to work out? Just seems that I don't know, the majority should be the focus.

QUOTE
There's been many people who went from the middle class to nearly if not already lower class.

Their fault. Dumb decisions. Lack of a college education. W/e.

QUOTE
There's people losing jobs left and right, Toshiba, Comcast, Bellsouth (before AT&T took over) Mitsubishi etc.. all laid off "THOUSANDS" of employees Nation wide (some world wide) Hundreds of employees per based location.

So? Thousands, let's say 10 thousand? That's like 1/3000th of the American population. .0003% of America. Cool!

QUOTE
On top of that, the real estate industry is goin to shit. No one's buying, no one can sell. New homes that were recently built are too expensive.

Dumbasses bought real estate and houses that they knew they couldn't afford. AMG LOW ARM'S! THAT MEANS IT'LL STAY LOW AND IT'LL NEVER RISE TO A RATE WE KNOW WE CAN'T AFFORD! Again, that doesn't effect the majority. Economists argue that the sub-prime market is going to crash, and that it's a huge support of our economy. Equally as many argue that there's going to be stability and our economy will fix itself, as it's done in the past.

QUOTE
Why do you think there's all this talk of tax cuts?

Because politicians like being popular?

QUOTE
Now don't get me wrong, I'm not claiming our economy has been the worst, but it seems for every point it rises, it then drops 5-10 points.

What's your point system based on?

QUOTE
Stop thinking on a small scale of shit... the bigger picture is right under your big, fat nose.
The economy seems pretty large scale. Just putting that out there.

LOL... you're right. f**k them, let them fend for themselves right?

See resplendence, as long as people like that exist, helping others wouldn't make a difference.
