    One of the benefits of disconnecting from the mothership is re-discovering your humanity. I actually see the good in people again not the bad. Hope you enjoy the sentiments below. If beauty is an ecstasy and anger keeps you poor
    A hungry man is never free, a rich man never cured
    Things were never what they used to be
    Now every crowd has it's silver lining, we all got stuff to sell
    And you may live your life so bitter, but you remember it so well
    Things were never what they used to be
    For all the folks who can run the world, drive cabs or cut your hair
    And the sun may set without your help, but you're beautiful people to me
    You may fall before you're pushed, but it's beautiful people I see
    If you only see the stars when it's dark, that's enough for me
    An empty soul with a full opinion is beautiful people to me
    It's all the same in different hats, the proof of the missing link
    A nation talking to itself and none of us can think
    Things were never what they used to be
    For a silent fool may still be wise, there's no way you can tell
    And the captain more scared than his crew is beautiful people to me
    And the finest government you could buy, it's beautiful people I see
    If you live five to one against, it's good enough for me
    Can't use two steps to cross a canyon, you're beautiful people to me
    If you don't see the same trees I see, you're beautiful people to me
    Make deserts bloom and oceans die, just beautiful people to me
    If you're lost and dying of civilization, that's enough for me
    If you believe your own blind eye, you're beautiful people to me
    And you may miss what you never had and have what you don't need
    And the sun may set without your help, but you're beautiful people to me
    You may fall before you're pushed, but it's beautiful people I see
    If you only see the stars when it's dark, that's enough for me
    An empty soul with a full opinion is beautiful people to me
    And the captain more scared than his crew is beautiful people to me
    And the finest government you could buy, it's beautiful people I see
    If you live five to one against, it's good enough for me
    Can't use two steps to cross a canyon, you're beautiful people to me
    If you don't see the same trees I see, you're beautiful people to me
    Make deserts bloom and oceans die, just beautiful people to me
    If you're lost and dying of civilization, that's enough for me Stuart Adamson RIP.

    Good post Borg

    Agree with you 100%. I find the Borg aggressively destructive toward the individual and toward humanity on many levels

    Where there is established power there is also corruption, this is a known reality

    So true. Leaving the borg changes your perspective on almost evrything.
