Does Anyone Give A Shit

Does Anyone Give A Shit

I write blogs about happiness, but does anyone give a shit? The majority of people in Syria are living below the poverty level with minimal food and shelter, but does anyone give a shit? North Korea's leader is a lunatic, but does anyone give a shit? The stock market is going through a crazy up and down period - now everyone gives a shit.

Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders could be the candidates running for President of The United States, but does anyone give a shit. An unstable person with his finger on the nuclear button and who will turn the cold war into the ice age war could be President - now everyone gives a shit. A radical left wing person who will make big government even much bigger and piss all over the people who manage our 401ks could be President - now everyone gives a shit.

In many areas the police are out of control, but does anyone really give a shit? The middle class is shrinking and the wealthy are getting more wealth, but does anyone give a shit - Oh yea, the poor people. However, in America, there just aren't enough poor people for the majority of us to give a shit.

There are terrorists all over the world, but because there are so few instances happening in America, most of us go about our day not giving a shit. However, one more World Trade Center and we all will give a shit. 

America says that illegal drugs are a big problem, but in reality most of us don't give a shit. In fact, many of us believe the best way to fix the problem is to make illegal drugs legal, collect taxes on them and use that money to help the people who need help. It works in Amsterdam because the people there give a shit.

Americans take more prescriptions drugs than anyone else in the world, but do we give a shit? I assure you the companies that make these drugs don't give a shit. About the only companies that do give a shit are the insurance companies, but only because they're afraid a Democratic President and Congress will make them give a shit.

You know, I could go on and on, but don't you think it's time we all should step back from our average daily life and find the time to:

Give A Shit!
