Loneliness and God

When people are desperate , they do desperate things.It is assumed by
many that the poor are so because they are lazy.Indolence means
poverty in the common speak. Some things like people dying in the
streets are simply ignored, and this year has shown that visual
effects rather than necessity turns people towards charity. Much more
were given after dramatic pictures from Katrina victims and Tsunami
Effects were shown in TV that people usually do.
People are mostly good ,which I agree. But the stereotype that poor
are lazy is plainly wrong. It was also stated during some major
research into poverty that many poor actually work ,but only that they
don't earn enough. Maybe in the day of nanotechnology ,in which money
will play no role as it would be easier to make paper money, we will
see what the divide between the rich or poor being gapped will
portend. But it has been argued by economist that the present money
based economy is the best,because it simply awards hard work. Most
people who are successful are able to sell themselves to the economy
thereby garnering money from the various components of economics. But
those who are poor are simply not working hard enough .The argument
falls when you consider peerage and status. For a good economy from a
philosophical view of point ,people should get what they deserve .That
means if you work really hard and are willing to go the extra mile you
should be successful. But unfortunately a factor called luck has been
left out. Nobody in this world is born equal. What you are ,what
education you get, and what chances you may receive depends largely
upon where you are born, who are your parents, how good looking are
you, how rich and influencial your parents are and other factors like
this which doesnot make everybody equal. George W.Bush got into Yale
and Harvard not because he of merit(he was a C student) but because of
the fact that his parents were influential and rich.
It is not expected that a child born in Sudan will fare any better or
equal to any child born in
US(except if the child is born to a very rich family in Sudan). Good
looks is also a big factor. You hardly see a ugly looking guy being
successful. Yes if you are lacking some stuffs you have to go the
extra mile. Marlyn Monroe changed her haircolor worked day in and out,
did some provocative shoots for her day , made aquaintances with the
top producers and even though she came from a failed family and
turbulent childhood she became famous. Though it has been argued that
she is not "better" looking than many of her counterparts. But it must
be said that she is not what you call ugly.
This much for now.
