This is Water - David Foster Wallace
Interesting video.
The last ten years or so of my life have taught me that reality and the perception of reality can and often are, much different. Hard as I try to bring them together, I'm always aware how things are not necessarily what they seem.
It is so easily to look around and come to the conclusion most folks have simply lost their minds and don't understand me or anything else going on in the world. And yet at the same time, it is very possible that I'm the one who has lost my mind and others are just trying to pay as little attention to me as they can. It ain't easy being me. And I bet it ain't easy being you either.

No matter how bad it looks, if we keep our heads and understand "Dog-One is not open" because we haven't opened it yet. It's all about the limits you set for yourself. Take away those limits and you'll be surprised just how far you can go.

Hard personal economic situations are really eyeopeners for a whole lot of people in the US, EU, etc, as we're normally used to having a better way of life than status quo, or in other words, our jobs have been outsourced on a far wider front than ever before.
Why?
Because of some World economic crisis.
What crisis is that? Can it be explained in 4 letter words so I can understand what it's all about?
How can it for example continously force up the price on all fossile based fuels and at the same time make it impossible to produce the things that which once were produced somewhere near you, where you once earned your living?
No, it can't.
Why is that?
Because the ones holding the strings wants to keep us in the dark, just enough so we won't back down from our modern consuming habits that which makes up our lives pretty much the way it's described in this video.
This is society as we know it, with it's infrastructure and all, and it won't change anytime soon.
It's feeding the one's holding the strings and they in turn see to it to keep up the good business/society.
Thanks for sharing!
