If we could see all the corruption in the world, the earth would light up like a night sky with a million stars. You did such a incredible and detailed analysis here, VOI. Great work.

The problem isn’t China it’s us….the consumer that buys their products.
Before China there was Japan and after China there will be others for multinational corporations to plunder and exploit and we will continue to buy from them
Great thought provoking write.

Powerfully penned, Keith. Excellent write my friend. Appreciate you.

Can we stop buying what is presented to us cheaply. Prices go up and we are stuck in the hamster wheel of wanting to do right but it’s often not.

I remember seeing a video where someone took a MAGA hat and turned it around to show it was made in China…which pretty much sums up the issue. Take as much as possible, give back as little as possible and never worry about the other guy. The humanity of the world has become devalued. Brilliant piece

Good work here. Plain, clear, brief, and to the point. It puts all we do in perspective regarding manufacturing and consumption. There are many causes: corruption, greed, graft, poverty, laziness, stupidity, sickness, mental illness, and lack of education are the prime movers. Mix and match and you get governments — meaning the PEOPLE who govern –that are corrupt, uncaring, inefficient, underfunded, overwhelmed, and driven by combinations of all those causes I mentioned. What do you get? Man’s inhumanity to man, our oldest and most practised activity.

This is a nice piece, well said.

This is unhinged in the best way 😂 Dark humor + fast food mythology = instant read.

Powerfully penned, Keith. This is a very clever write my friend. Appreciate you.

Damian

Another one for the books here. lol

What about perplexed soul fast food? Does it include diet cocaine? Everything is so darned conceptual these days.

Cleverly penned, Keith. Incredible write my friend. Appreciate you.

Damian

Well to have ramen and thinking about bizarre tentacle porn is one way to kill time. lol

Beautifully quiet and contemplative. You made me pause.

Powerfully penned, Neville. Excellent write my friend. You’ve been missed around here. Nicely done as always. Appreciate you.

This is really deep and that time needs us is very interesting thought.

This takes me to the thought…if it’s not noticed, is it real? Time is one of the most precious gifts, and it’s not an infinite sum allotted. Pay attention to it. It’s gone between one breath and the next. This is brilliant in its simple complexity. It’s good to see your words again

What Willow said.
An awesome take on what is so taken for granted.
