The crappy world rant

I have a good friend who went a little mad on that brilliant movie, like the others who changed their desktop wallpapers to match the moving-green-characters-on-black motif, or like my prof in last semester's German literature class who brought the name up while discussing Kant's Critique Of Pure Reason. I can mimic the agent and vividly remember the fighting scenes thanks to the hundred times this friend, who also happens to live next door, has shown them to me on his comp; but otherwise I don't dig things like virtual reality and didn't bother to understand what it was that the white bearded old man actually said. Certain questions that I think the movie asks however, have been on my mind of late. Thought I'll post them up now, even if that means I'm breaking a tradition this blog has. What the hell.

This is about how unfair this world is. ( And no, its not the blaming society crap again. I don't blame anyone as such. In fact I tend to think everything that happens is a result of randomness that prevailed in the early stages of evolution of the universe. ) Yeah but the system that we have has the peasant who grows the food I eat poorer than I. We have investment banks that generate more income than economies of most nations by merely utilizing what basically are loopholes and by doing no productive activity. It is not fair, and if your notion of fairness has an element which transcends from balance sheets and productivity indices, you'll be as convinced as I. The question to be asked however is if the system is crappy.

Would we have been better off say in a world where everything ran fair and square. Where the work you did brought the rewards it deserved, and only what it deserved. Where the people with skill were recognized, and the others were reduced to jobs like running stock markets. Where submissiveness was eliminated entirely. A system which had the laws made based on a majority decision and had them enforced in such fashion so that no petty mishap is left unnoticed or unpunished. A system that could as well been implemented in a computer program.

I believe that any argument is useless, for objective solutions do not exist. A human is human because he succumbs to his perception, and it is impossible for his whims to coexist with laws or rules that basically are constraints on free will. On the other hand there is no denying that order and control are important for the sustaining civilization and ensuring a progressive atmosphere. But then is everyone clear about what progress means ? What are our established social orders based on if not on random factors. Most importantly what right does anyone have to mess with my notions of right and wrong ?

So were I to be given the choice to be plugged into a computer where I could do what I wanted, what are the reasons I could give to refuse ?

Jah : I think I know why randomness increases in the universe.
