Life will be downright miserable, boring, and utterly sad, not worth living. We are not machines, but these guys have no sense of that, and many of us seem to be losing that sense too. This is what happens when the basic needs of us are hard to meet, we turn against nature. This is why miserable people in Brazil cut down the rain forest to raise cattle to make burgers for McDonalds. Now we in developed countries can begin to "feel" the consequences of what poverty does, and other people around the world live with constantly.

    Birth control, education, less hypocrisy/religion and decent jobs - power back to humans, not corporations - should lead to some more dignity on this sad planet.
