Social Science - 7 October 2006

some ppl unreally argue that 'if th $15/hr person's skills, talents, knowldge are worth more, they'll get paid more' - ie, they believe that pay is proportnl to merit [in capitalism], and critcsm of others' high pay is envy [not a sense of justce]

is this because these ppl are still thinkng in a hunter-gatherer mindset? ie, are they thinkng: if a person is more successful in the hunt, then it is only envy to resent it, and unjust to think you have a right to part of it? ie, they are still thinking in terms of a pre- job-specialisatn- trading- pooling- money society? - we had to trade when we specialised in jobs - and money came along to facilitate trade - effectively wealth [products of work] are pooled - but trade introduced the imp of transaction [workvalue of items traded HAVE to be diff, richgetricher] causing ever-escalating violence, violence [war and weaponry] and injustice growing for 1000s of yrs, culminating soon in nuclear winter, universal death

our root error???????

Of course its love, as love is purely a biological desire to reproduce, and continue the species (though we dress it up quite extravagantly)

It seems that the disease of coolness has eliminated out intellectual thinking and is concerned only with keeping up with the latest fad. I have run into my share of cool people and they are some of the most intellectually dull people I ever knew. Coolness is also a pride booster for those with no brains who find pleasure in shunning good people. I don't think anyone except me thinks that coolness is a form of evil. I run into cool people and I tell them what a bunch of dumb punks they are and that they do not know squat about life. It feels as if I am talking to a brick wall.

In my early childhood I was rather falling. Later I could levitate and glide, but in the last few weeks I was totally in control of my flights (except for gravitation, of course). Does this mean anything? The atmosphere of the dreams did not change with the evolution of my flying techniques.

What is neglect? How do you know if you are being neglected? Can teens be neglected? I don't even mean neglect that is illegal. What if you just feel like your parents don't give you enough attention ( like were you trully don't get much attention) and you feel like they don't really care? Like, I feel like my mother neglects me, but i may be nuts. For ex: several times i've told her about my cutting & suicidal intentions, she listened but never brought it up agian. and she still knows about it, not like she forgot. Her cure is to put me on Welbutrin, & you are supposed to watch kids on that, but she doesn't. So, in the end i feel like crap but can't tell her cause she nothing productive happens. & she seems to spend all her time w/ her friend & worrying about her. She is often doing errands, or more likely at her friends, not home. She seems to freak over her friend and herself, & away when i need help. So i feel lonely, jealous, and resentful. am i selfish? Plz help, not sympathy

Small things often affect me a great deal. How do i decide what's really important and should affect me more than other things? How should i decide what things should be given more priority and which should be given the least?

I like a girl, i dont want to like her. Sometimes i just look at her face without even knowing she is there, and she looks at me and i feel like stupid, i dont know how to react. i dont know if too stay looking or to look at another direction. Either option makes me look stupid. Why do i meet her eyes without wanting? WTF?

I've noticed that when people are coming to a stop, the tend to look off to the side or down for about the last 10-15 feet. It's sort of weird. Has anyone else noticed this? look in your rear view mirror next time you're stopped at a light. it bugs me.

20 yr old. Moved to a new state about a year ago because my family moved. All of my childhood friends are back home and I miss home and them very much. I've spent a lot of time alone the past few months, trying to figure out who I am and what I want out of life. Now that I'm back in school, I've finally got some friends. But it seems that every time I hang out with people, I end up aggrivated with someone, because of something they say to me. I'm constantly on the lookout for someone to deceive me or talk trash about me. If something seems sketchy, then I automatically assume the worst, especially when it comes to friends. As soon as someone says something like, "Why did you do that?" or "your not doing it right" or some other form of criticism... I automatically get into defense mode and become aggrivated. This feeling stays with me for a few days and makes me depressed and distant.

What does this dream mean?
Few weeks ago in my dream, I saw myself helping this girl i really like. However, very recently, in my dreams, the situation turned 180 degree. I saw her being very kind to me, always talking to me and smiles at me. In my dream, I even think that she has a special feeling for me. What does that dream mean?

Thank you.
