Annoyed... again...

It's summer and for most university students it's a wonderful time. Relaxing, and enjoying stuff.

Somehow I find myself getting annoyed ever so often these days.
I'm annoyed at my parents.
I'm annoyed at my friends.
I'm annoyed by myself (sometimes).

Hell i'm starting to get annoyed right now thinking how I can extend this post to be a bit longer than just six lines saying I'm annoyed at the world.

Maybe I've been thinking too much lately, like how the garbage men of vancouver earns more than a teacher. Football coaches earning far more than the dean of a university faculty. How even a simple street cleaner is earning more than grad students who've paid for their education.

How is it that in the desperate world today there is so much inequality?

In a world full of resources and finance we choose to spend billions even trillions trying to squeeze the money out of everyday people instead of perhaps investing in a better idea such as global warming. All the green things we see today are simply illusions that we've created for ourselves to think that nothing is wrong. Hybrid cars? Sure they're great, other than the production of them, the landfill bound previous car, oh did I mention that a small percentage of hybrid cars isn't decreasing the total CO2 emissions of the world by much.

It's all green washing... regardless of how much "eco-friendly" products we buy in the end we are only supplying companies with funds to green wash us more. I'm annoyed at how so many people are going along with all of this and thinking that they're doing the right thing when they're not.

I'm a firm believer that within the next century (our lifetime , maybe the next generation as well) the world will plunge into war and chaos. In the world today we have democracy, the UN, police, freedom fighters, and just about everything that we think is keeping peace in the world. How much peace is actually there in the world? Violence, murder, rape, etc, they're everywhere... and ever since the beginning of human race it hasn't stopped.

It's almost laughable; nuclear weapons can be now created with little knowledge and cost. Imagine, in 80 years countries will start to compete for natural resources, land, even fresh water. When all hell breaks loose how will the human race fight for survival? The population sure ain't getting smaller. Why of course, the "stronger" countries will band together and shut all doors to on comers.

Think about this, if you and a group of 5 friends are stranded on a island with barely anything to survive for 30days in hopes of a ship coming for rescue. At day 25 you all realize there's really nothing to eat and you may all die, and at this point you find a heavily wounded person lying by the rocks. Would you choose to save him? Think hard...

So you saved him and now the food rations are even more scarce, and eventually it runs out. One man dies of starvation, luckily you are still able to make fire and you have a pocket knife. Would cannibalism ensue? What of later? The strongest would group together and take off the weak, eventually only one strong person remains, and even he/she will die. Sad isn't it?

So you choose not to save him. Well sure you'll last longer but eventually the same thing happens as above.

"no way!" so most people would say to how i've played the two scenarios, but if YOU can (truly and honestly) say that you'd rather die then do something in humane can the rest of your group? In the end humans are selfish (only generalization of 99% of the population or more), regardless of how much we hate to admit it.

How is this any different than the dire situation of the world that would be coming in the near future? A bit emo, but this is how I believe the world is going to become if more effort is not put into keeping the world.

I've actually more to say, but I've procrastinated enough from work so i'm cutting it short here.
