Our Collapse

Our economy is going in a downward spiral towards our eventual demise. We are on a slow collapse as one would say. Our economy is falling but little people are really noticing. The government is trying to cover up the collapse of the United States of America because mass panic is unnecessary. If Americans were to find out that the name that the United States achieved to be prosperous is now a lie, mass panic would throw us into a whirlwind of disastrous events.

It is true that the United States had once upheld the name of being prosperous but as soon as agriculture was introduced, we had a cultural boom that triggered the beginning of our downfall. When the American Way of Life was born, I can’t but help to reiterate from my paper on food ethics that, agriculture has made Americans lazy and dependant on machinery. Cultural boom = Population boom = infectious bacteria, viruses and deadly diseases.

Sure we could possibly have a cool collapse where everyone goes green and that looks like what the government is aiming for with all this green advertisement. Or it could just be another cover up for a much bigger disaster. I think the later is more likely. I feel that the government is trying to cover up a disaster that involves either our resources such as fossil fuel running out or that many holes are forming in our ozone layer allowing harmful UVA and UVB rays into the earth. It could possibly be that our pollutions from oil run factories and gas run vehicles and other forms of toxic waste is slowing destroying our earth and unlike in our example of drowning in class, we’re all going to toast like the villagers of Pompeii when Mount Vesuvius erupted. (The people of Pompeii died instantly and were encased in full body casts from the ash that went through the town. Wikipedia)
