politics

I think about people. The amount of humans in this nation, let alone the world is a massive number that I'll never be able to fully rap my my around. And yet I can't help but to think about how much alike we all are. Yeah, little Johnny, that's right. I said it. We're all the same. Yet we divide. We're selfish.
We form groups like mad. Little infestations plotting against each other. We're a never-ending checkers game. Skip you, jump you, Crown Me! But why? Everybody wants to be happy, be satisfied; can we not all find our place and be happy about it?
The rich stay rich, the poor stay poor. One success story for every infomercial. People grab on to something and refuse to deny it. But a place. Are we just taking any open seat like some elementary musical chairs game. The music has ended. We're all gasping for air, grappling; slinging even the closest friend aside. Fiendish people.
What if, and just what if, We don't have a place for everyone these days. The poor stay poor. The "housing developments" that look like dreadful ghettos when their built! If that is what we surround people with, what do we expect the product to be.
The rich stay rich. Surround people with money on a platter and what do you expect. Money.
So here's the point. Can we not be creative? Everyone is not just banished to a particular social group. "Oh well, somebody's got to be poor/rich" What the hell? I don't understand why we don't sink billions a year on people in need. Not someone's ambitions. I'm drowning in this political bath.
We divide. I'm from America, my dirt is better than your dirt. Does it matter? Spilling blood for no reason. Defense is a different subject.
I'm presbyterian/methodist/baptist/pentecostal/southern baptist/church of god/church of Christ/lutheran/catholic and last but definitely not least "non-denominational" (isn't that not just another group?) Odd, for believers that believe God is Love, we divide. We divide.
There's no more to this. My thoughts drag and stutter. It's all a mess. Not my thoughts, but the rest of it.
