The one and only human problem.

     We all look for answers, whether their big or small, large or tall. When in doubt, people believe anything their told. About a quarter of the sites I go to on the Internet are scams. About half are overpriced retail sites. The other quarter are just sites marketing the other 3/4 of the Internet.
     Why is this what the world has come to? We’ve all lost direction. We don’t care if we scam some one to make a little money for ourselves. I saw my old 6thgrade teacher today, and he made me think… What was this nation built on? Trust maybe? Possibly a social ladder? No, it was build on honesty and truth. we need to stop looking for a quick way to make money. I’m not going to lie, I used to write, because I liked a little extra money, but now I don’t really care about it. I just want to either bring a smile to some ones face or at least make them think about life. It’s too valuable to waste scamming and being scammed.
     I recently wrote two articles about a penny auction site called “for10cents.com”. It’s a very well made site, and it’s not technically a scam. But these sites are expanding, new ones are forming, old ones are getting bigger, and everything is getting more expensive. We all want a cheap easy way to get rich or live the “good life”. The second article I wrote has 265 views, and I feel bad, because at least 50-265 people, are looking for that quick way and came across that article. Even though the article is true, I honestly wrote it hoping to get views and money. We’re all losing morals and I’m no different than anyone else.  I want each person who reads this to do a good deed before the whatever week your in right now is over. If it’s Saturday, you don’t have much time left till the weeks over. I want anyone who reads this to encourage people to do deeds that the creators of what ever country you live in would be proud of. I doubt anyone will actually take this to heart, but it really should at least be thought about. Thank you all for your time.
