There's some solid points made. Not sure about the "buy Keds" bit, though.

"the love of money is the root of all evil" topic. how does one know that it isn't too late to do anything but ride this sinking boat to the bottom? despite the fact there are more of the little people than of the big wheels, the little people are trapped by the smallness of their thinking, into perpetual subservience to the big wheels. how does one change this? how does one wake up the sleeping giant mass of people like the great middle-eastern awakenings happening on far shores as we watch?

The quicker the boat sinks the sooner a new boat will be built and launched.
