MIDWIFE OF INVENTION

25 feet of concrete 400 miles a wall, that which is being constructed as we walk about our regular day. built to divide and give-extra land to the israelis, of course. how can one stop the cycle of violence? i can see a day, though, when all men find a way to coexist in peace. where transparent governments who can no longer secret their way around. when even the government has "personal responsibility"! ha! you say. soon? probably not. the in-between? incredibly tumultuous. life in the early 21st century? incredibly complicated. overall? the future will be limitless-if we can get across the threshold we are on, now. imagine-cheaply produced, clean energy. a renewed focus on locally grown and sold organic produce, a de-fastfoodization of america, if you will. a realization that we(and corporations) can use and accept environmentally friendly products, services, and strict controls and countermeasures on ALL sources of pollution. Such policies would inevitably become the MIDWIFE OF INVENTION, creating opportunites for companies to take place in some kind of green revolution that says being green does not automaitically make enemies if capitalists. i am stopping now-must go to bed-but look at the map of the separation wall here: http://electronicintifada.net/cgi-bin/artman/exec/view.cgi/7/1775
