i was reading today about all these people who are upset at the big banks for charging more for accounts, to off-set cost for the change in regulations.
people were saying, "banks are greedy" and "banks are unfair.
" which is the common thought among society about several key industries.
Is socialism 100% bad? Is capitalism 100% good?
Can you see in more than black and white? Could there be a balanced point between extremes?
If you were born and raised in China, would your opinion be different based on your upbringing and social environment? (Obviously, there are government programs in America that have a 'socialist' nature to them - to some degree, these systems are simply nessessary or advantageous - regardless of 'black and white branding'.)

there was a thread here some time ago with a title something like this.
it was about the wts' silly teachings about chaperones needing to be present every single moment to prevent couples from having sex, as though sex is something that happens instantly and accidentally.. i saw this today and thought of that thread.here for more.. *on 2nd thought....i am not sure the pics would meet posting guidelines...so click the above link.
it's a few comic strips depicting silly scenes in which "immediate accidental sex" happened.
If you don't have a good partner, you better have a good hand.
Ha!

Tomorrow, I'm going to buy myself a pair of roller skates and NEVER learn how to properly use them.

Silly---but my question is---how would a chaperone have prevented THOSE scenarios.
Don't tell the gb , or JW teens will be required to start wearing "magic underwear" (aka, chasity belts).
ANYTHING that is required to prevent people from having a healthy, normal human life - with it's unsurities, hopes, dreams, and risks - is good in the eyes of Jehovah's Witnesses. The ONLY thing teenagers should be allowed to do is sell magazines every day. That is safe, boring, risk-free, and prevents them from having any sort of real life.

folks, i almost feel silly creating this thread, but i think i must do it based upon comments by folks who think the various governments in the usa can make any legally enforceable laws they want.. they cannot!.
in the usa we have a republic.
we do not have a democracy.
No single human viewpoint/worldview/document is - nor ever can be "the supreme law". Human society and morality must continue to grow and evolve. If there is anything we should learn from human history it is this: That no singluar point in human ideals should be regarded as perfect and infallible - humanity is and always will be a work in progress.
To regard the US Constitution as holy and infallible is yet another primal "cling to tradition" sort of simplicity. There are absolutely valuable ideals to be taken from it - but it is still short-term thinking. Like everthing else invented by mankind - the US Government/Constitution has its flaws (unfortunately enough, only likely to be acknowledged and addressed after the death and suffering of millions or perhaps billions) - and will ultimately be but a single point in a grander tapestry of human progress. Do you really still believe there will only be 7 "super-powers" per WT doctrine? 7 came and went.. 8 is now rising. After we are all dead 9, 10, 11 and 12...
I do not believe the forefathers of this country were aiming to set an 'ultimate' set of rules to stand for all time (else why did they consider the right to bare arms so important?) - but rather that they were looking toward the continued progress of human civilization. Like our forefathers, I think we should keep an eye not toward the just the limited short-term constitutional tradition - but towards the long-term progress of human civilization.
