I have family in France!

I would teach people to respect and love each other.... the answer to all problems?

Alright angrist who you inlove with because I just noticed your title ? .... And people who are like I would get rid of war meh.. You'd just put millions of people out of work.. And tell me if there are no jobs for the people now where would they come from ? Fox 6 I have to disagree with the going back into time and killing hitler, I mean if you were to go back and then kill him then you would change events of the past and alter the future for possibly a worse off armageddon type situation..... But other than that I would make sure the US and it's allies had the biggest guns. My dad told me this once.. "Peace is secured by overwhemling firepower." Cuz I mean who wants to F.. With the guy with the biggest guns ?

If that doesn't pan out.. I'd say end world hunger because I mean more people die from that then war so........... F that..

I'd reserve that for when the real time comes, WHEN THE ALIENS COME!!

EDIT: 1100 whoo!

If I could make a difference, I'd get rid of all the **** music like rap and pop which poisons the minds of today's youth.

OMG Ace I think you actually believe your won bull****!!
What if all these soldiers go grow vegetables or something? Tsssk..

War doesn't produce anything, it just consumes.
Construction <--> Destrucion, get it?

Edit: who pays for you guys? The government. Where do they get their money from? From us civilians.
So WE are paying for you (not that I disagree with that).
So stop griming "oooh without my job I wouldn't have any money!".

PS: No offense, this is just how I think about it. Nothing personal.

How would we just get rid of war..? It doesn't seem too easy.

Canyarion · 08-27-2004, 10:28 AM

........
A) that's not the point.
B) I already answered that on the first page. Just make people respect and love eachother.... but I don't think humanity can achieve that, so we'll need 'a' God.... but don't mind me.

Thats not true, War does create huge economical increases, makings jobs from soldiors, to bomb makers, to janitors working in bomb factories. War also forces technology to jump in huge leaps and bounds, sometimes for the better, for example, the V2 rocket, invented by the Germans during WWII, is the base theory for all space fairing vessels used today.

As for Ace's question regarding what I would do, I'd see to it that 1% of the world population doesn't own 90% of its economy.

Duuude, have you not heard of the 80's?? Pop was in its hayday back then and totally kicked the crap outta anything today. 80's hip-hop kicked ass too but you can still find great new stuff around like Prefuse 73, Cex, 2nd Gen, and Dev79.

It's all about perspective

I could name a bunch that are good.

Good recent hip-hop artisits: Aesop Rock, Blackilicious, MF Doom, Kool Keith, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Mr. Lif, Cannibal Ox, Madlib, Del Tha Funkee Homosapien, Sage Francis, etc.

Good recent pop artists: Of Montreal, The Olivia Tremor Control, The High Llamas, Neutral Milk Hotel, Rilo Kiley, Beulah, Koufax, Quasi, The Busy Signals, Mirah, The Shins, etc.

I agree that a lot of the more mainstream pop isn't great, but better stuff exists.
