| SciFiBoy said: in Star Trek, everyone has healthcare and education, everyone has a good standard of living, everyone has all the food they need, everyone gets the same rights, racism, greed and bigotry dont exist anymore, how is that a bad world? what youre saying is nonsense, Picard gets the best quarters because hes the capitan, yes, but the others arent treated like slaves, other than his quarters, he doesnt get any more than them. No-one was forced to do anything on the Enterprise, they all choose to join and help out and they all seem happy enough to me |
FantasyLandBoy would be a better name. Trying to base life off of a TV show.
Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.
