It seems to be that as of late that people just seem to be walking embodiments of repetition expressing little to no creative action of their own due to our 'unique' socializations. While there are some that successfully break this mold, it seems that the majority are trained in the figurative and literal sense to think and respond alike, depending on which outlets we get our information from, with similar concepts and ideas. Turn your head there, and read something here--perhaps simple compliance with limited reflection through the same thought processes has caused this condition in confluence with other factors. I seem to be experiencing this something that I can not yet fully grasp--it is somewhere between the desire to create something original while not having a clue as to how to go about re-imagining the distinctive.
Perhaps I have been spending too much time developing generalizations on the dimensions of human thought, and not enough time having the sort of interaction where one walks away with the feeling that something was accomplished. There is always that profane barrier that prevents the connection that could be achieved it seems--be it time, space, or some other intangible but very real idea. And yet, perhaps it is this sought after connection which causes this feeling. Perhaps if I thought on simpler terms of fulfillment of immediate gratifications, this would be a non-issue--however, I could never accept such as this is the world for more.
I am currently at a lost for words having stood on the shoulders of giants for far too long.

yeah, right
"Which is worse, ignorance or apathy?"
As the nations of the world trade systems participate in continually evolving forms of economic globalization, the level of ignorance and apathy among the general populace may rise relative to the degree of personal socioeconomic success.
In short, it is predicted that the capitalistic exchange model may promote economic stability among nations while further socializing global populations into the mindset of commercial manipulability.
Other sociopolitical effects of global capitalistic exchange may include the empowerment of women, changing family and social structures, profitable exploitation of the working classes by the capitalist classes, cultural domination, the development of English as an universal business language, as well as new alliances and stratification among the nations.
The concept of an integrated one-nation world system of government may function if there exists full and equal representation wherein class, ethnic, and religious identities should not be used for political mobilization and stratification. This may require a possible blend of the elements of democracy, republicanism, communism, and socialism. It would also likely require several informed citizens' committees to address issues of corruption and repression.
If peaceful and cooperative technological development projects were to take place under such a system, concerns such as health, poverty, education, and environmental degradation may be greatly reduced.
If something of the sort ever happens in this lifetime, I would be content living life as a traveling writer, artist, policy consultant, and educator.
