Shame on them

I need to vent, it is beyond me how things have gotten this screwed up, and how blatant everyone has become.
Scandals? Hell if you are a politician without a scandal I would ask whats wrong with you. You go into politics to be scandalous, to be bought, to be manipulated. This is the way of "ALL GOVERNMENTS". Cheat and conspire is the rule, not the exception.
Then there is our "new disease" obesity. Please tell me just how much you care about this when the biggest restaurant chain in Canada sells nothing but butter and sugar. Tim's is only an example of how bad are eating habits have become. Even in France many of the restaurants use frozen and factory prepared meals. Again another scandal in that they don't want you to know this. Pre chopped onions and such is the way it's done today, I don't think many of us could afford to eat somewhere where meals were made from scratch. Just like farming the factories have taken over and production is the #1 goal, not quality but quantity.
Then there is the way we farm, no matter how many times it's shown that crop rotation works, they would rather spray chemicals to rid themselves of the bugs that keep becoming resistant to the very spays they use. As well as the GMO's that were suppose to save them from these pesticides. I call these people suborn stupid, along with all those that think fracking shale for oil and gas is okay and wont hurt the water supply.
Speaking of which where are we going to get more water? With temperatures rising do to whatever you believe and irrigating more and more crops to feed an unsustainable meat industry we are on the brink of a nasty drought. They can't pump it fast enough, cities like Los Vegas are in real trouble, but you don't see the golf courses closing, or the fountains shut off. This is called "head in the sand syndrome". As long as it does not affect you, well then it's not a problem.
Would someone please tell me why everything needs to be encased in plastic? Is this an addiction? I know the Chinese are great at injection moulding but why does everything need to be packaged? Man and getting things out of this packaging is sometimes a nasty experience. I've lost count how many times I've cut myself ripping this stuff open, hell someone makes a living selling a tool just to open these freaking packages. We of coarse are getting better at recycling plastic, but where does it go to be remade? I've pulled loads of this scrap to Vancouver where it gets loaded on ships that take it to China, but I've read that even China doesn't want to do this anymore. And the shrink wrap, well they can't ship anything anymore unless it's shrink wrapped. Tons and tons of shrink wrap that is used just once, then it's bagged up and shipped half way round the world.
With 7 billion and counting, we need to get it together, and soon!
