How can people stand this world?

[Breath on the Wind]

Just as an example. Coal is now being used for less than 1/3 of our electricity on the grid. http://www.eia.gov/forecasts/aeo/er/early_elecgen.cfm It is corporate special interests and their propaganda that pushes the incorrect view that all electric cars depend upon coal.

Like this listening to too too much media can give us a negative picture of the world. Consider who owns the media. Consider who wins by a population that is disheartened and un-empowered?

You can call it the 1%, corporate or even religious interests that ask you to surrender your sense of self worth. It has probably always been this way and at times it may even be the right thing to do. But among the sheep there are people who continue to strive for personal excellence and who are not dissuaded by the talk. You have some ability to decide in which group you will live.
