The following will be moved to another livejournal account. I'm going to take to writing into a new account, since this old one seems outdated and far too personal for my needs now. I have no need to spread my personal life to everyone, but I do have the need to spread things that I are important to me. Bare with me.
"The eight countries making up the G8 represent about 14 percent of the world population, but they account for nearly two thirds of the world's economic output measured by gross domestic product.
The most well-known criticisms center on the assertion that members of G8 are responsible for global issues such as poverty in Africa and developing countries due to debt crisis and unfair trading policy, global warming due to carbon dioxide emission, the AIDS problem due to strict medicine patent policy and other problems that are related to globalization. G8 leaders are therefore pressured to take responsibility to combat problems they are accused of creating."
BE AWARE, be direct.
I appreciate all the energy I can sense from the demonstrations in Germany. I am deeply moved by people who are aware of their surroundings and bother to process what is being fed to them by the media.
BUT the violence makes me sick. What do you want if you advocate violence and chaos?
We need mutual love and understanding. Would anyone who knows please let me know when this has been achieved with violence.
