The world we live in

Now I thought that I'd better post something vaguely serious on this blog from time to time, a break away from all the stupid, random rubbish I've been posting on here since I first joined a few days ago. What this little post will be about is what kind of world we live in, and the sort of realities that we face. Here's a few to name:

A footballer gets paid more than soldiers, fireman, and policemen. 

I find this pretty ridiculous. Footballers, however talented they are do not deserve the money they get (the ones who are on hundreds of thousands of pounds a week of course.) And the fact that a fireman, who risks their life more days than not, only gets paid enough to put food on the table. In my opinion, footballers should be wage capped, or actually, maybe not, as obviously £200,000 a week is pretty hard to live on.

Any moment could be your last.

Yup that's right, this moment, as your reading this sentence, could be your last moment that you will ever experience on this planet, you may not even get to read the end of this paragraph. Some lunatic murderer could break into your house and kill you with a knife, or you can suddenly die of an organ failure. Or you could be reading this on your phone and BOOM, you get hit by a car. Yes, any moment you can die, just like that, so make the most of every day, as each day could be your last. It kind of puts everything in perspective, so screw life, just live it how you want, you could die tomorrow!

Google is taking over the world.

Yup that's right, Google is taking over the known world, slowly but steadily. No one can stop them. You use it every single day, once if not multiple times, often with out realizing. They offer a whole range of services, from blogging, to the maps, a search engine, a social network, an emailing service and trillions of images, all for free. The company is just getting bigger and bigger, and soon it will rule the world, you heard it here first.

You can be 16 to have sex, but you must be 18 to watch porn.

This is one of the most stupidest things in the known world of law. Once you turn 16, you can finally have sex without breaking the law (in the UK), but sorry, you have to wait 2 more years before you can watch people having sex, I mean, that's not stupid at all, is it?

Slavery still exists.

This whole slavery thing should not exist anymore, world. I mean seriously, you wouldn't think that there are more slaves in the world than ever before even more than the slave trade in the 1800s. There are 27 million slaves in the world, so why hasn't anything been done to stop it? 

So that's it, my 5 or 6 things say a thing or 2 about the world, and what a rubbish place it can be, and also, how stupid it can be from time to time. I hope you enjoyed reading my first "serious" post, as I will be doing this sort of thing from time to time, please comment if you agree, disagree, or have any more suggestions.
