Playing the game

It seems this year has been one giant exercise in futility. What else could possibly go wrong. I should have known that when the patriots didn't win the super bowl that the world was going to end. We are coming to the end of one presidents administration and about to enter another as the world crumbles around us. Financially most of the world is a joke as we try to keep the game going by writing numbers in books and calling it money when money is just an idea. Value is the real question that has been lost along the way as consumerism has enveloped this nation, along with several others. No longer is someone building or making something so that people have access to things they want and need in order to survive and flourish. Things are doled out little by little with several restraints and many rules governing use. Our cell phones suck and cost too much to do very little very well and the internet may be on its way there as well as I find it harder and harder to find something that isn't an ad trying to distract me away from what I am doing or preventing me from doing it all together as they find more and more ways so it is impossible to ignore. We should have access to just about all services for which we pay too much. Pretty soon you will have to pay for everything you want directly. When tv started it was paid for by ads. Then came cable, which still had ads but you were paying for premium content. Now cable is just like regular tv but you are still paying for it because some jackass has to come to your house and plug a cable into a box you don't even need. Why dont we just start over. Write off all the debt figure out what things are valued at and go from there. No more $150 dollar shoes, no more paying for cable, and no more bullshit from everyone cheating us out of our money because they have to have just a little more when pretty soon they will have it all and it will be worthless. I am not sure this rant made any sense.
