Science fiction writer Ben Bova wrote:
The most prescient — and chilling — of all the science fiction stories ever written, though, is “The Marching Morons,” by Cyril M. Kornbluth, first published in 1951. It should be required reading in every school on Earth.

The point that Kornbluth makes is simple, and scary: dumbbells have more children than geniuses. In “The Marching Morons” he carries that idea to its extreme, but logical, conclusion.

Kornbluth tells of a future world that is overrun with dummies: men and women who don’t know anything beyond their own shallow personal interests. They don’t know how their society works, or who is running it. All they care about is their personal — and immediate — gratification.

A comedy with similar reference....Watch the trailer......click me

Why Can't We Mind Our Own Business

HONG KONG (MarketWatch) -- China adopted a tough stance against the U.S. over the weekend for selling arms to Taiwan, announcing it will suspend military exchanges with Washington, and warning of sanctions against U.S. companies involved, according to reports Monday.
I cannot get over how both, republicans and democrats, with their idiotic policies, will not stop till this country is brought to it's knees.
Not only are we picking on our #1 banker, but also the one we need for our "Save Money.....Live Better" lifestyle. If China won't supply us with an endless amount of cheap dollars and inexpensive Mao-Mart products to make us feel good, who will?
We must be careful, for we are no longer in the drivers seat. Our empire is collapsing while China's is just beginning. They are hungry for growth and are not afraid to work, we are fat and lazy and bitch if we don't get 5 weeks paid vacation a year, health club membership and a dental plan......oh and 10 sick days a month.
The opening ceremony to the 08 Olympics said it all.



Our show would be a performance by Beyonce and Lil Wayne.

I feel the dispute between the communist party of mainland China, and the nationalist party of the Republic of China (Taiwan) is none of our business and will only escalate any tensions between the two.
But what do I know........our elected officials must know what they are doing.
