Humanity self destruction


In my field, usually I am hired to make more effective procedures and balance quality and designing to improve lives, however many times those changes or improvements in products or procedures are just to increase profits and not only raise functionality on the item itself. I see a trend from some years ago, in movies and news, all about how we are destroying, or how the world will end and I see the Gates foundation with their billions and other doing charity work, which I suppose is done to bring welfare and to avoid the path all those researches and news are talking about. From 2000 until now, I have seen more than 10 different movies that destroy the planet, solar flares, meteor, comets, flooding, polarity reversal, global warming and still there is more money invested in wars around the planet and conflict that grow better ( not chemically modified ) food. It is ridiculous that now you have to pay 3 times to get natural food, a normal seed put in the earth to grow normally, than the one that is modified and developed chemically. But I guess the ones that invest and make the profits from changing our natural way of life are happy about it. Also the medicines companies that get benefits from us get poison from those new modified foods. But they are linked also to the companies that make the modified food, is a vicious circle.
What countries are fighting for I wonder, if there is no future, the last documentary I saw about food production, warns that there is an imminent war is on the near years already.
The guys of the documentary made their pile of cash, by making it, and create a new vision of what we are doing for the planet, and well, banks, they cash from debt and wars is the biggest way to put a country in debt, so banks are not really into lending for opportunities and help any economy, they are just waiting for new ways to profit without create a new crisis, all their thinkers are hired with the objective of create those ways to promote products in which they raise profits and pay shareholders while people is deceived by new financial products.
All those banks are just waiting, wondering when they can cash again in the next big debt movement. Anyway governments will bail them out if their plans go wrong, and the normal common people is now the cushion of any big corporation that sustain the stock exchange of a country. Right now countries can take what you pay, and put you in debt without even ask. And the banks will be saved by those moves, right now there are not shareholders the responsible ones anymore, or the CEO's that no matter a big collapse of their procedures and structures cash out with a pile of cash for doing all wrong. I believe the personal interest has never been so self centered than in the last 20 years. All the team work is just an old motto of the 70's , total quality is nothing more than take all you can and try to people believe in your strategies to make them rich, while you become rich in the process. Countries ally with one today that will fight tomorrow. All the interests are totally derailed. You never know what a country exactly want, we have wars that lasted for around a decade or more that started with a purpose and ended in nothing.
Politics has become like high school, when you only study for the exam in order to pass, politicians nowadays only effort for the election night and study all they need to say and how they need to act, just to pass their exam in election night, after that, is salary in pocket and forget about to practice the theory you make others believe in, again, you sell your idea while you become rich, as many of the politicians go to power, just to see what they can squeeze from it, it has nothing to do with people interest anymore, only with self way to catch contracts, lobbyists or someone who needs the politician position in order to make any profit.
This is not a new past, all the empires were made by conquer and destroy, but at that time, there was too much land and not so many people destroying it. Cars ?
You have a car to be more comfortable and go faster to a destination ?
Who can go faster nowadays ?
Life at least in the ancient times was about family, shelter, food, still in some places is all about that. In other again someone convince you that the way to be yourself is having things you don't need and you cannot afford, and they become rich in the process. Maslow said it and that is a total reality, to be human and survive you need food and shelter. You do not need to put all you dream about in a credit card. About half of the planet population that tries to acquire a house, ends up paying it when is too old to enjoy it, or just die before happens. But the shareholders of the bank will be happy about it, they have their money in there, and they are protected now by governments, that spend money that is not theirs, increase debts and help any financial institution in problems, or at least help the ones that put money in those politicians that take the position exactly for that reason.
Governments suppose to be administrators of resources, the representative of your interests. But that does not work like that long time ago.
And the documentary of the food wars continue. I wonder who will pay for a world war for land and crops ?
How much money that can be used in help each other will be wasted to fight for water, corn, rice and beans ?
Or a comet that is coming, or floods, and disasters.
We are the comet of the planet, the disaster, the meteor, the solar flare. Since we became " civilized " all we think is how we can destroy the planet and all living things inside it.
I do not see the future on this, when we are already on the limit of our planet and still the movies talk about destruction and we all keep supporting governments and the moves they do to get to our collapse. This planet really needs a reset button and an dolphin take over.

The Universe is billion of years old, you wont live even 100, so enjoy more and travel light.

Crisis brings people back to the basic's, but then in crisis some only see means to profit from those who are impacted the most severely by the crisis.
the Seven Deadly Sins, is the ways of man... Only the learned individual who is first and foremost learned in respect for humanity, regard for mankind and knowing in their soul of self, there is a higher being, which created an order and process, and within that process it has order... but mankind is and will continue to be influenced by the media, or the Majesty claims of those who claim wealthy, and fools become more foolish, and madness become craziness, leading to the cycles of psychological desperation.

The basic's 'food, water, shelter and mating", that is what keeps life ongoing, at no point of death to any will they take their ill pursued gains.
We want much, but in the basics of life we need very little, and that little is often times simple for a couple to acquire.. but we set standards based on the desire for convenience, then we become to want entitlement, once we get it, we then want power to control... thus we become abusive by the greed which invoke the thirst for power.

man wants to usurp all things, including the force that put the spirit of life within us. Unaware that by no means can man will himself back to life when death leaves his body spiritless. Many religions began within the acts of teaching mankind of the ways to regard each other and be of grace and thanks unto the spirit that gives us life...
then control became sough because of the power desired by the regulation of people.

between man and woman, was enmity and by this process, it was crafted into the greatest economic generating machine imaginable, by putting criteria and condition on their union... and fictions within the roles they must play to make a union --- between civil community and religious edicts, the individual is divided, thus they are conquered... one has control over the physical self and its movements and acts, and one over the mind, of its motives and intentions. Thus by containment and guilt invoking an guilt relieving, mankind is lost... and thus nothing become of satisfaction... Money then becomes the pursuit, with man hoping to buy freedom from the system of society... and find him selves trapped within idolatry of material madness.

We may be ancient colonizers set up to gather resources we have no awareness of what established their claim of value. until we have lost the value of self and humanity of others.
