Social Science - 10 June 2007

Capitalism thrives on free markets, and a free market will always produce 'haves' and 'have nots'. All this talk at the G8 summits about ending world poverty seems like a complete myth, as a poor country is only defined as being poor in relation to wealthy nations, and no leader of a wealthy capitalist nation is going to erode its own nations wealth in order to make another country 'less poor'.

So, although a wealthy country may be willing to send aid to a poorer country to alleviate it's immediate suffering, unless we stop exploiting the poorer countries workforce then all this talk about ending world poverty is a complete myth. It seems that capitalism/globalization is at complete odds to ending world poverty. What do you think?

As opposed to a defeatist? Could it be inborn? Is it something science can explain? What makes the difference; causing someone to be relilient or a defeatist?

I like my breast but some times I dislike them, not always but just some times.
I need to know it has some thing to do with my period?
Do other girls feel the same?
(I have small breast and I never wear bra)

I don't think it is natural if girl don't like her breast.

Is it about just not bothering with wasting their time and just do their own thing, because they can?

If you have examples from real life please do share.

I have two:

ONE:Sex crimes are mostly perpeterated by men therefore the whole male gender is under suspicion perpetually.The whole idea of a woman committing a sex crime looks ridiculous because she doesents have the proper equipment to committ such a crime.

TWO:The female gender only wants rights not responsibilities because apparaently most of them work in cushy enviourments and yet look down upon those rough craggy male workers who built the offices and roads and houses these women use.

If hypothetically these notions and mindsets were to disappear would there be a future worth looking forwrd to for both the genders in terms mutual love and respect?

He came over and killed my overindulgent vibe as I drank an ice cold New Castle without a care in the world.

I was feeling generous though and pulled out some spare change from my backpack. (roughly $0.40 worth)

After all is done, he looks at the money in his hands and has the audacity to ask "Is this it?"

I mean damn.. the balls on this guy!

I was so impressed at his lack of shame that I gave him a beer. He left with a smile.

Am I an enabler or did I do the right thing?! Hmm..

I've been thinking about it a lot lately. My life drags on we keep moving, I don't have any real friends. I'm 20 and never had a g/f and I still live with my parents. I dropped out of highschool because I got so depressed that I couldn't do any work or socialize. I'd usually just stare into space. I don't know what to do, everyone I've ever know is progressing in their life and I guess you could call it jealousy although I do wish them the best. I just don't know, I don't know what to do with my crappy excuse of a life anymore. The only time I'm happy is when I'm drunk or stoned and that's not the life I want. :(

I had this dream last night and I just can't get it out of my head. I was with this group of people and John Travolta was teaching us how to dance. He was wearing a long pink eyelet skirt. He was smiling the whole time and twirling his skirt a lot. And I was talking to him later and he denied he was in Grease. Just flat-out denied it... "I was never IN Grease." Just like that. And today, on VH1, guess what was on TV? Yup- Grease. What does it all mean!?

I personaly donr give a rats *** about race , I'm all about me myself and my family. Its my opinon that anyone who puts there race ahead of their individuality in trying to compinsate for somthing else, I don't believe in racial pride, how can u be proud of somthing you had no control over. I say be an individual first, a friend and family(man or women) and save the race thing for a casual intrest in genetics. The most racist people i see and hear are the ones who ar proud to be a color and not an indiviual why is this?
