I always thought this scene was beautiful

I think I've taken one economics class in my life and I didn't really understand it, but I'm gonna give my input anyway. I think people who act as if there's one end all be all way to manage an economy are kind of stupid. There's plenty of economic strategies that work. On paper. Yes, thousands of economic plans that work on paper. Well the truth is economic plans and strategies are bound to have ups and downs, its inevitable. Not only because there are so many contributing factors that make controlling and predicting the highs and low's of an economy effectively impossible but because economies are dependent on people - which are even more unpredictable. Lets talk for a second about communism. Communism is dependent on people doing their jobs and giving and taking their share as is determined by the government. Well, there's a couple problems with this that I see: 1. It is dependent on everyone doing their job effectively and being satisfied with what they're being given in return; and 2. That the morale of the people is upheld If not enough is being produced because people are not happy with what the're receiving for their work, or because the masses do only the absolute minimum of what is required of them, and in turn everyone is given scraps because what is given is according to need - then the people who work the hardest will stop or slow down and progress will come to a stand still. Once the collective is going down hill being fed scraps after all I hardly think any single man is going to start working harder Now lets examine the near complete opposite side of the spectrum: anarcho-capitalism. Lets assume for a moment that everyone is getting along and not killing each other in the streets. There will be people who have a harder time making it while others sit comfortably on top. This is the harsh reality. But there is undoubtedly more freedom and opportunity to help yourself. People produce and innovate and work harder to make a better life for themselves, and as long as they do this the overall economy will thrive There are a hundred thousand different economic philosophies inbetween, and the overall outcome is completely dependent on the mindset of the collective. It's easy to say "if everyone just does their part it will work!" on paper, but when people are working hard and getting little in return you can not expect them to continue purely out of duty on behalf of someone they don't even know, especially when there may be much more simple jobs that demand less work and give the same benefits. So in conclusion, there is no one economic strategy that will bring prosperity to everyone, and anyone who think's that there is is stupid. Prosperity demands hard work from everyone both in mind and body, and there is no strategical shortcut that will ever change that

So many people seem to get caught up in their own lives that they forget about the significance of the moment. Everyone you care about could be gone tomorrow in an instant, and it seems [to me] like the safety net provided by the government and technology has been a major factor in people forgetting that. It sounds like your dad was a good man.

Well if you want the full story... I expect human beings to hold themselves to a higher moral caliber than to chase after everything that they're physically attracted to

no

Well there are when you're asked to memorize and match a bunch of philosophies with their corresponding philosophers lol

youre not sure of anything rarity just keep doing your little designs

u kno it

Ever since the first episode I saw, well... the second episode.. the first episode I saw was that one where Pinkie Pie was babysitting... Well ever since the second episode I saw where Applejack completely owned Rarity during the episode where they did the slumber party thing I always knew Applejack was the best. Why is Applejack the best? Easy. Because she knows that Rarity is the worst. Applejack knows that Rarity is just annoying and cares too much about cleanliness and fashion and other dumb stuff like that. And what makes Applejack even better is she knows the true meaning of life is not that dumb stuff, and she's not afraid to work hard and can have loads of fun just doing simple stuff like playing in the grass with her friends. She puts no stock in that noob fashion stuff that Rarity partakes in to sound sophisticated and appeal to a bunch of uptight fashion noobs that think they're better than everyone else end of.

I'm guessing you kind of make a connection between fluttershy and your wife? She must have been a great person. Well you are Russian so you're strong so I'm sure you'll get through what you're going through and come out the other side a stronger person.

lol sorry ponies but I will take Naruto over you every day of the week

no custom robo huh

true, but i would rather say adults are just kids who have been here longer

you just know

so yesterday i was talking to my mom and i was like "i feel like an indian" and she was like "you are, you're a great part Sioux indian on my side" And I was like wow. I always kind of thought I belonged with native americans but this explains everything. Did not see this coming. I think I inherited all of the Native American blood from my family too.

I think you're going to end up regretting it very much when you're older, and not because you aren't gonna get something frivolous like a good grade out of it, but because you're severely limiting yourself and wasting your time doing essentially nothing of value. I guess a lot of kids think like that though, I used to. The best advice I could give to anyone still going to school is do it for the experience and the knowledge, not the grade. But that's a difficult suggestion to make to someone whose being forced to go to school to begin with. I do hope you have no regrets.
