    Lol, that sums it up in a little cartoon. Nice find :thumbup: You have become quite the anti-establishment one haven't you Leon :p I feel the same however, I cannot see how capitalism will continue to provide for the human race, it does not work and that is evident to those with half a brain. Saying that, I believe that it may have gone too far, the unstoppable wheel rolling down the hill into darkness.

    I studied graphic design for a total of 5 years and 9 months, and that is basically the fuel for it all. Ir was a major factor which made me leave university early. I realized what it was. You learn how to target people through advertising, not just colour choices or as most people assume, 'subliminal messenging' which really is not a key part in it. In fact, it goes far far deeper than that and has been set up for many many years to enforce ideologies that we should conform to, discorces of power, using 'beautiful' models when advertising a product that is desirable and using average looking to 'not beautiful' for products that resemble change is needed, and many other sneeky ways. I was astonished when I first started to learn all of it, my passion and my skill was only good for one thing, fueling capitalism
