Problems and shit that doesn't make sense.

The world is not a shitty place to live in, it's the other humans that make it a shitty place to live in.

~ Everybody at some point in their lifetimes... hopefully.

So last night was the final of the FIFA Confederations Cup, Brazil versus Spain. Spain suffered a humiliating defeat - considering that they are the standing World Cup holders. But as most know from watching the news, Brazil is a rich country, with it's culture, art and what not, but there are still quite some poverty there. That is why there has been riots and demonstrations these last couple of weeks about the price of public transport. It makes you wonder how much money one can get for organizing an event of such a scale, not to mention future events like the World Cup and Olympics.

Recently, I've found my self thinking on many events organized or held by cities, where main streets are closed off or special security details are needed. Most of that is paid by the people who live in the city or country. I'm not going to brag or whine about why politicians are stealing or as they put it "conserving" money, because we all end up talking about it over coffee or a beer with friends. It's an old topic. My point is why aren't we standing up to them? I mean when there was a feudal system or monarchy that crossed the line, we stood up against them - you have from revolutions to civil wars to wars of independence! So why are we still swallowing this load of bullshit? In Spain, we have a president of the government who has lost like twice before becoming the president, not to mention that most of he's political party is under investigation for corruption! Do I have to talk about the cuts in Sanitation, Education and other departments? Not to mention reductions in salary or how it is easier for a company to fire someone now? You see in the news that things are going bad for a country, and sometimes you don't even know how bad things are because most of it is covered under a pile of bullshit that keeps rising.

Oh, I haven't forgotten about the broken promises that are made daily, that they will do this or that to save or help the people. They only get involved when the shit hits the fan, and only then. I mean, apparently the Germans are now a bit angry with the US because of all this spy crap that is popping up now, but how much of this did they already know? Or even they allowed? It's like when your wife makes a pie and your kid wants some. You let your kid have a piece saying that you won't tell your mum anything if he gives you some. And if he gets caught, that's he's problem. Yes, I believe politics is like little children bickering and bitching about things that should be simple and are always using: if I give you this, what do I get in return.

I'm tired of this subject as a whole, so for now just going to leave it as it is...
