The West is clueless

There are so many ignorant people in this world. The worst are those who think they are smart and convince themselves they are aware of everything going on in the world. My biggest problem are those who truly believe that the US is out there helping other countries become better. The foolish suburban white breads, who have never really experience involuntary hunger, as opposed to voluntary hunger to fit into some cookie cutter image set by brainless failures plastered all over television and magazines. These people claim to know what countries far far away need. They let the rich white boys in Washington convince them that what people living in poor countries need democracy. Mainly because these people actually believe they have complete democracy, which it wouldn't take a genius to figure out that it's not so by looking just a little harder at the details around them. But everything is so much more beautiful with a little bit of a blur. Ask any alcoholic, and they'd tell you that they're always sleeping with beautiful people. But I digress...

The point is, we really have to look hard and realize that people in Iraq, and people in India, and people in China, and people in a lot of other countries that we don't even mention because they have no oil and no resources that we can suck dry, those people don't need democracy, they don't need freedoms, they don't need theories that don't work, or even those that work. They need food, it's that simple. And maybe even the ability to dream about having any sort of a future! Apparently that's too hard to fathom by people who never worry about whether they will have food the next time they feel hungry and actually decide to eat!
