If you want to talk about natural selection and the human population, yes it's not "natural", but in a detached way of looking at it, "the rich will thrive; the poor will die". Thinking of it, not in a humanist but as purely through science, this could be a good thing. Think of what happens when deer are overpopulated. It's true that hunting is a violent "sport", but without it deer will starve to death and can result in the death of the species. ..in a strange way, it reminds me of socialism. It's a "nice" dream, but people become unhappy and it falls apart

Well, Laura, what can I say in response to your intelligent comment? You're right, I guess- the rich thrive, the poor will die. It would be pretty unreasonable to demand more philanthropy from the rich. I just can't comprehend the celebrites' spending. It's so excessive- I can't imagine wasting all that money on all that stuff. I say this now, but I wonder if my ideals would hold up if I were a wealthy Hollywood-ite. I hope so! Due to circumstances and my dream of being a teacher, I sincerely doubt I'll be forced to put my convictions to the test!
And as far as the dogs go, yes, better a dog than a kid, but why not an exotic fish or bird? That would be a cooler pet than some silly little dog.
I wasn't going to be here when your sister dropped off her last thing, so I just left the door unlocked before going home for the weekend. But now I'm back, and once again, nothing was stolen. ;) I'll miss you! Have a spectacular summer!
