Waterstar Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 Not long ago in the news, there was coverage of a person being attacked by a shark. The news anchor said something to this effect: "We're seeing more and more of this. Is it because of all the sharks or is it because of all these underwater cameras?" You know what? That is too real. Cameras /satelites everywhere, watching everything EXCEPT the more important things it seems. If more lives are being lost in the streets of Chicago than in the "conflict" involving Afghanistan and if there are cameras all around, where does our logic take us in such a situation? When drugs are being shipped in by these planes, we don't see or hear about this, yet we see the effects of this constantly in our neighborhoods. Where does our logic take us in such a situation? Eye tracking devices to record consumer data/shopping habits. Money for such fancy technology yet no money to sustain pre-k programs? Forget what you heard. Education is "not" the key. Education is almost obsolete. Consumerism is the key. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iCThO0EIu14&feature=related "Watching Me" by Jill Scott Watching me, watching me Watching me, watching me Watching me, watching me Watching me First thing when I wake up And right before I close my eyes at night I think, sense, feel man likeI'm under some kind of microscope Satellites over my head, transmitters in my dollars Hawking, watching, scoping, jocking, scrutinizing me Checking to see what I'm doing?
