The only difference is some of us have better technology.
The ones with better technology attack and conquer those who do not.
Just like medieval times.
this delusion of mass poverty and tyranny that you have...
We still have Templars, Masons, and Jesuits too.
Poverty is proof of tyranny.
Bad leadership.
have you lived in poverty?
can you eat?
For 3 years, I could only afford one mean a day.
and sleep without being killed?
...and I lived in a "first world country".
You're comparing the stone ages to now.
without the fear of armies pillaging your lands, taking your prosperity and women.
no
The banks don't provide any of those securites.
that happened perhaps 500 years ago
Technology and government does.
no where near the stone age
No shit.
but this thinking certainly is
what would you have life be?
No, this is medival.
a utopia?
where everything is handed to you?
That's what we should always strive for.
We stopped trying.
since when?
Since medieval times.
we have an overwhelmingly educated populace
Do we?
of course
Then why can't many people find work?
Why are we so far in debt?
because theres too much lower paid labor and industry
Why are we still killing one another without cause?
Religion
Why is labor paid lower?
because its easier to import masses of educated workers
People can't even afford to labor and prosper.
