Great America?
Americans usually have no intention to take responsibility in the world.
They want to be No.1 in the world, but they have no intention to take responsibility in the world.
They want to be a millionaire if they do not mind being No.1 in the world, but they have no intention to take responsibility in the world.
They want to enjoy life if they cannot become a millionaire, but they have no intention to take responsibility in the world.
That is why the world cannot get rid of various types of problems ranging from global economy to global security.
But, if they take responsibility in the world, what would they have to do?

Greece has not necessarily been the worst country in terms of national misery.
But, the UK and the US are really close to the state of Greece, according to a certain measure.

What FRB Said in January
FRB might be an honest organization but with insufficient ability to prevent any large-scale financial crisis.
WASHINGTON -- The U.S. economy ended last year on an encouraging note, with all parts of the country showing improvements. Factories produced more, shoppers spent more and companies hired more. All those signs point to a stronger economy in 2011.
That's the picture that emerges from the Federal Reserve's survey of nationwide economic conditions released Wednesday.
Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke is optimistic that the economy will strengthen this year, but warned last week that it will take up to five years for unemployment, now at 9.4 percent, to drop to a historically normal level of around 6 percent.
Still, risks loom. Declining home prices and millions of foreclosures are depressing housing markets around the country, the survey says. Rising gasoline prices also could drag on the economy, Bernanke says.http://www.aolnews.com/2011/01/12/federal-reserve-economy-ends-2010-on-strong-note/As the unemployment at a 9% level has continued for three years, people have started to join Occupy Wall Street. Then what will happen when this level of joblessness has continued for 6 years or 9 years in the present-day America? Occupy Congress? Occupy the White House? Or Occupy Apple?
Occupy The System
If you occupy a public park in a district where Wall Street is situated, nothing changes.
But, if you can occupy the computer systems used in Wall Street, you may change something. Wall Street companies rely on sophisticated computer systems in their business. Suppose if they all use Windows OS in their computers and you can lawfully remote control the OS, you may occupy lawfully the computer systems used in Wall Street. Then, as it will cost an unbearable amount of money for Wall Street companies to do away with Windows OS and introduce a new system, they will listen to you lawfully.
However, they already took necessary measures to prevent such a risk. You cannot lawfully occupy the computer systems they use.
However, there is another system in which Wall Street does business. It is a social system of the U.S. But, it is not a simple legal framework or a general scheme of conduct in business.
But, there must be a system in the American Society that enables Wall Street to function so well. And, if you occupy the system lawfully, they will have to follow you.
But, what is the system? It might be like gravity nobody realized till Newton claimed its existence for million years. You may try to find it.

One foolish thing about Japan is that so many paddy fields and rice fields have been abandoned because people do not take rice but eat beef and other foods imported from the world.
On the other hand, prices of rice are set high to support life of rice growing farmers. Those farmers cannot compete with, say, the American agriculture industry producing so much rice at low costs.
The agriculture is one of major social and economic problems in Japan. And, now the Japanese Government is requested to open the domestic agriculture market to the U.S. and so on. It will decide the fate of the incumbent Noda Cabinet.
But more foolishly, by 2020 it is expected that 30% of global production of corns will be consumed for production of biofuel while 900 million people are starving in the world.
It is extremely foolish that mankind does not put more resources into development of agriculture and preservation of the nature than into development of weapons and luxury products, such as iPad.
Evil comes out of selfish motivation of people to enrich themselves in this world but not in Heaven. But how long will the God overlook this foolishness of mankind? Something terrible could happen at any time. Mankind cannot have a game with the God. Mankind cannot challenge the God to win. Civilization that lacks enough fear of the God will surely perish sooner or later.
Mar 10:15 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein.
