Seriously! Can we possibly continue this way and survive?

Question

I mean whether it is politic, polution, islamism, nuclear, climate change, economy. Can we possibly get out of it without a major catastrophy?

Answer 1

No. I don't think so.

Answer 2

the short answer to this my friend is NO.

Answer 3

Doesn't it seem like the world keeps getting worse and worse year after year? I think people have been thinking that for centuries or millenias for that matter. I think (hope) we'll get through this craziness (madness). See you on Mars!

Answer 4

Yes, definatly, we can "make it out"...I just think that media likes to stur too much s/hit, because when it really comes down to it, China is no longer a threat, or vietnam, NORTH or south korea, Japan is now a great alley, most of western europe kisses our @$$, Islamic states are fine, they love their money that we give them for oil and terrorist attacks are staged. Terrorism isn't real, I think it's just to keep people scared for their freedoms and thus people will trade more freedom for safety, which is rediculous...It will reach a tipping point just like markets do, when banks go bust oil goes bust and then everything equals out. Same way with America's freedom, no matter what people at Washington will say, America is an unstoppable force of equaling it's self out! I mean they will try to take away freedoms but then another one will be given back...Trust me the founding fathers were no dumbies when they made that system. They knew that someday people would get in there that didn't want the same things they did, so they made a system that keeps them in check...

Answer 5

People have been asking that same question since the dawn of time.

The answer is that you have no choice but to survive as best you can.

Answer 6

No, and a majority of it comes back to us as a response to the Capitalist ethic, unfortunately.   We think it's them, but most often, if the system we live under didn't coerce and extract so much of their wealth through various schemes, they would frequently embrace us for what we have to offer.  Our greed gets the best of us - and so we fight, murder, bomb, and torture, and so it goes.

Capitalism causes enormous misery around the world, but it's the best our species has come up with on a grand scale besides multiple forms of monarchy and religions - again, both miserable social structures.  

There has to be a better way...
