A word on Utilitarianism
Places I've been:
San Jose California, the place where everyone on earth goes in order to get to somewhere else. The crossroads of the entire world of illegal activites... this is the name of SILICON VALLEY. In the silicon valley you will find eery kind of person that exists.The statistics show that there are four times the number of cars out driving on the roads than there are people in the state of California. Sporting the worlds fourth worst driving conditions, there are two major traffic jams per day for approximately 7 hours each that lock up the entire 200-mile diameter area of the San Francisco Bay Area and surrounding communities. The technoloogy world is cranked out of some kind of perpetual money machine that major corporations all dump into in order to keep society mopving, and approximately 95% of all laborers and workers that live in this area are there illegally from other countries. ALL of them exist at a double the standard of living for an average american, and none of them does anything truly useful for society. Stag-nation. Iowa City Iowa, where hell pokes out of the ground. The worst things I've ever seen in my life have all originated here. It seemed to be that the theme of the times' negativeside is free-flowing from this epicenter of all social evils. The war on drug,s child molestation, homelessness, poverty, disease, depravity, pilotical corruption, and social decay... all ofthese things are more prvalent here than anywher else I've ever been, and I've been pretty much everywhere on this continent. This is a very dark place. Boise Idaho, the land of too many millionairres. The food is extremely cheap, the dance clubs go all night long, and there's nothgin better to do than work on cars or gohunting, skiing or fishing in the beautiful mountains with the bald folk who aren't so well-liked in town. More bars thanchurches, and a relatively large computer industry go to support the overwhelming number of investment firms foundhere. Also, most everyone has a gun. Nice place! ...heh... Seattle Washington, home of the druggie slacker. Five minutes off the bus and a heroin addict passed out next to me on the street with a needle still in her arm. The scenery is beautiful, so long as you don't look anyone in the eye. The oceans, the weather, the architecture, the fashionable culturalism, the architecture, the expensive vehicles, the architecture... Portland Oregon, smack? Anyone? Maybe I'm just cursed with the incredible knack for being able to find these kinds of things, but literally one block from the bus station is the smack-fiend soup-kitchen. I'll bet there's more to this town than that, but who the hell am I to stay and find out after a month of running away from drug-infested psychopaths with social-decay as the fundamental core of their beings? I went right back into the bus station and kept going. Indianapolis Indiana, the creepiest city in the whole world. I went here for a vacation with some friends. We stayed in an apartment with a balcony in one of the three towers at the nothern end of town, with a view of the biggest cathedral-like Masonic Temple I'm likely to ever see, in the shape of the torso of a humanoid demon built from massive intricately carved blocks of stone like a giant demented sphinx sticking 3/4ths of the way out of the ground and screaming at the rising of the sun everyday left me with a case of the shivers I still haven't shaken. There's a beautiful walkway down a series of canals with some really huge goldfish very near there, and while I explored downtown, I found that the denser places that are now zoned for commercial and residential use were once the very same factories and ndustrial components that were burned after being condemned for having too high of an accident rate back during WWII. In the center of this target-shaped city there is a pervasive feeling of gang tension as you can actually waych gang-members contest over territory during broad dalight. The only semi-normal thing about this place was the big huge mall, that is both big and huge. Salt Lake City Utah, a thirty-mile wide church with international corporations built into the pews. No bars, only churches. No resraunts, only fifnancial firms. No coffee shops, no pool halls, no music to listen to, no spacial places to see if you aren't Mormon... and then you're in the gateway to heaven. Everything and everyone for about a hundred miles in any direction is pretty much devoted to the service of aliens from outer space that talk to prophets who eat peyote and wander aimlessly through deserts without food or water for weeks at a time. I hear there's a punk scene somewjere out there, but I'm not about to go looking for it. Again, the architecture is wonderful.
