If I only knew what I was thinking..
        Never has so much been written about so little.
        Let's be frank; most people don't want to think.
        I like to think, because its a fun way to pass the time.
        I just don't have any influence.

        What is critical thinking?
        Let's get started on deconstruction:

              1. All human constructs will be rethought and possibly
                  deconstructed.

        That's happening all over the world. People are interacting on a global
        network and getting really pissed off. They want more stuff and the people
        running things are loosing control.

              What is identity? Back in the day a Baptist or Jew or Muslim
        believed in religious ethics and lived in segregated neighborhoods
        and sent their kids to the neighborhood segregated school. Most of their
        lives were spent in these communities. There was little interaction with other
        ethnic cultures or beliefs. Today, a municipality must include many beliefs
        and ethnic groups. However, extremist and anarchists would rather tare
        down the bridges between multicultures.

                  Specifically, there are those, who refuse to accept diversity
        and choose to attack the global community for threatening their identity.
        They identify themselves with their work..

                  Jobs are essential to an economy. But, how do employers
                  compete with cheaper labor in other countries?

                They can move their factory to the country with cheaper
                labor or try to lobby trade protection from their government
                with an increase in tariffs to balance the market place.
                But, government is corrupt and people can be bought.

      Slavery was racist and violated the dignity and human rights of those
      enslaved, but has it been abolished in this modern era of credit tracking?
      A slave could be a citizen with the rights and protections
      given to all indentured servants. We are all owned by our debt,
      but we are still protected under the law.

                  Here's how it might work. A debt is too great for a citizen to pay.
        They choose to sell themselves and perhaps their wife and children to
        an investor for so many credits against their debt. Great care
        will be taken by a human society to treat these slaves humanly.
        The cost of labor would drop to food and lodgings. The economy would
        be revitalized with a cheap slave labor force. The term slave could be
        substituted with creditor. A small chip implanted in the neck would keep
        constant track of the creditor and their debt.

                It is happening and I don't know how to stop it.
                Maybe, this is Social Darwinism.
                It might just work out for the best.+
