What is the best ending to a perfect beginning?

things are always in a perfect state....the world always has equal amounts of negative and positive thigns occuring. it just depends on where you're standing. the fall of Saddam Hussein was viewed as a positive event here and as a negative event in some middle eastern countries. often times there is lots of tragedy occuring in the part of the wold were you're livign in, or in your own personal world, that it seems that tragedy has leaked into the rest of the world. That's not so.
Now, the lone pursuit of prosperity has rendered us so independently miserable.In countries like China. The people work as a community for their economic security. Their suicide rate is one of the lowest of the developed countries. they are achieving wealth but they are insuring that everyone gets an even slice. The pursuit of prosperity itself is not what is hinderign us. Its the puruit of wealth for oneself that is. Here in America the people will do whatever it takes to be better than everyone else. To keep up with the Joneses. Actions here are largely governed by the desire to be "the Champion". Image is the principal indicator of our level of success. Unfortunatelly, this capitalist/imperialist school of though have isolated us much from those around us. It's made us angry, envious, selfish and callous..... Does anyone even know the name of all their neighbors on their block?
A revolution is inevitable. Think about it......
