    Default Is civilisation collapsing

    You can't help but notice the odd kinds of decay everywhere. Somehow things keep getting worse instead of getting better. People can no longer provide stability , the world is in debt and morality doesnt exist anymore. Life is so cheap and money rules. How long is it before we turn into a Mad Max melt down ?

    Watch the news, look around you ? it all looks pretty fucked

    Riots, stabbings, govement corruption , pregnat woman at "Cage Fights". Maybe Jimmy could put a poll together ?

    Can I ask a sincere but possibly very dumb question;

    "Who is owed all this money ?"

    I understand all the countries are running at deficit, but who are they borrowing from ?

    China mostly, seems to own a lot of the USA which is quite amusing.

    Things aren't actually any worse, in many ways things have never been better, you're all too young to realise that lol!
