Spock is wrong

I submit to you that peace is illogical. Watchng Star Trek and seeing Spock antsy about in Kirk's shadow shows me that for all his recriminations of the human race about not being able to suppress their emotions, that control is illogical.
Without emotions we would have no direction, no purpose, no yearning for progress. It even feels good to say we are Floridians or Americans or even westerners perhaps when we visit other lands. This sense of pride is so "human" as to be an emotion founded in the invisible hand theory of John Smith. But is not bottomless in its perceived benignness. To have a direction we must pass others.
I once put it to my fellow ARC group members that if on a one-lane road two people approach each other one running and the other walking, which should get out of the way? Some said that the walker should move because the other person has a greater purpose, some said the runner, having all that energy would find it easier to run around. The answer? Well that depends on you.
People with little purpose, let's call them happily married cuz those people are likeable, are doing their daily chores of giving back to society in the form of taxes and children and good feelings. People with a lot of purpose are also providing new choices and directions but are perhaps saving more of their money and not having children and they aren't the happiest people in the world when it comes to karma. These people are the drivers of the race. Which are you?
Anyways logic dictates that happiness is to be suppressed, that extermination of enemies is essential to the subsistence of oneself, that to laze about in the relevant squalor of children and welfare checks and drugs like alcohol is irresponsible and must be lessened, but should it? I recently saw a video of the Koreans becoming more and more addicted to video games and they mentioned how it was becoming a problem but is it? Their children we visiting coffee shops per se and spending all of their time there. How is that an improvement to what they do here? Do children here go to the nearest McDonald's and hang out there doing god knows what with no money? Yes. Would spending like 10.00 a month to sit in a chair and surf the web and text each other, would that be an improvement? What if everyone learned how to write basic code and computer programming? But as our instruments become more sophisticated so too become the controls that control us.
Drinking was something difficult to put a finger on. Was it the mark of a declining economy? A lot of people blame vodka as the vehicle for Russia's demise. Maybe it's time to find out what really happened over there? You aren't gonna tell me a 100 million people all drank too much and the economy went south cuz all the people lost their love for money.
It has often been said and I quote William Wallace heh, (if you think Im a lousy writer then it's time to tune in to Sarah Silverman for a while and then come back to this so you'll appreciate insight) you think your position gives you the right to limit other's freedom but I think that your position requires that you provide others with freedom. And I go to see that they have it.
Yeah freedom is what it's all about boys and girls and without it people just start fighting.
But what do we do about the invisible hand? Well? Is it right to have a system where the rich get richer? When they teach you what good business is all about in Business School the main thing that I pulled out of being a good financial analyst was that increasing shareholder value was of paramount importance to a company.
But how far can that go? What happens when the law of diminishing returns tells you that all things end? Is this law more relevant than the invisible hand? You bet it is.
Control is evil or let's just call it illogical. There can be no happiness to someone completely under control. Our stock market is the first step to the end of the constitution. Why? Well because you can never outdo the rich people once they are rich. An army, like money, is an entity all its own and grows like the invisible hand of the devil telling you to cheat on your wife. You already have happiness or boredom maybe but risking it is what will bring you more happiness. So having an army that doesn't do nothing is like being married too long. Without something to do, it withers. That is why Hugo Chaves went from good guy to dictator. Indeed I would say most people in charge find this the ultimate test of leadership as to how to keep all that money.
It is much like cheating old age. It gets more and more expensive but you know it can't last. And it feels good.
You know it does. People with nothing want a voice and land, people with money want people to like them, people with everything want to learn nothing. Rock Paper Scissors.
So I submit to you that Spock and Vulcans are wrong. To pursue logic as a religion is to seek the circle of life. To do the right thing you need many wives, many leaders, many jobs, many orgasms. How can you choose a leader without the use of emotion? I don't wanna say that being with many people and treating so many others like trash is a good thing. It reminds me of sluts who have been with many men. But a lot of men haven't been with anyone. A lot of men need to have all that and a pair of stockings once or twice in their life. A lot of men need to have been with one Angelina in their life and I don't think that's too much to ask. So bring me the sluts and hold the marriage and equality for just a minute because what needs to happen, especially to young people is that they need to be free to choose, free of violence and free of logic.
Still, after you have porked your third fat lady or licked something really nasty from a genital area you may find yourself ready to have just one source of stimulation. Likewise, maybe 2 million is enough money lost to whimsical desires, maybe it's time to get the bank account I always wanted, the right one.
You know it's funny because in the game I used to have 2 million gil and i used it all up to buy a Blue Cotehardie +1 which I thought was the cornerstone of thiefdom and then the value went down and I haven't had more that 1 million gil since then, but I still have my Blue. I wonder if that's loyalty or stupidity?
