Things geting better
I just tought about this, so I put my thoughts out here. That way I have everything here and don't have to remember it, if for example my head explodes or am in vegitative state, it can still be here byond the limits of a functioning physical body ; D
So things geting better
This has been a trend thats hundreds of years old! People complain about the present things geting worse, and if you know anything about conditions which people have subjucated themselves and others to in the past, you will realize that is a load of crap things geting better over all, and here is an example.

Story is that prisoners are doing work with composting waste and growing organic stuff, so it reduces cost eco friendlyer and all that (and they working, which is punishment that is constructive : D ).
So even prisoners are chiping in the green trend : D So even if somebody commits a crime they can latter become a productive member of society even when in incarceration (longer sentance the longer they have to do it).
Yes I do know things sometimes get worse (up and down fluctuating in some stuff), but over all things improve in time, of course that is not to say that we should not complain or be entirely content with anything; (after all that desiring of something improving often does lead to things geting better). Things are still not perfect in a lot of respects but things could definatly be worse!
In a particular example would be in america, from 1500's Africans in america were kept as slaves, no property, no rights no vote; then second class citiziens, less rights, no vote, lower property; then today can vote, same rights (by law), and more property (lower then avg but better then past era). Things not perfect but they get better, and I just summerize 500 years of history to a ethic group in a country in one small paragraph! Yea I know I could elaborate but my time is not infinate nor is yours to read, so I should make my points quicker!
