Hippie Chick--you're a moron. John Lennon did not write the song "Money." It was the Beatles covering the song, which was originally written by Berry Gordy and Janie Bradford.
Aside from that, upon reading your rambling diatribe--I truly belive that you're still a moron.
Don't hate man. Wasn't it John Lennon that said "All you need is love" and "Money can't buy me love"? Okay, he also wrote the song that goes "Money, that's what I want, Now, Give me Money" but I'm sure it has hidden meaning.
We protest partly because we care about this great country. We all believe our opinion is the correct one and we want what we believe is best for our country so people will often protest against things they believe in. Many Republicans and Liberals believe each other hate their country but in truth, both of the voters love their country so much they both want what they feel would be best for it and so get angry at people who want to do something that in their mind may 'ruin' their country. Exceptions of course are the companies that vote Republican to help them suck more money out of the poor. Most Republicans are sadly, misinformed and I believe if John Kerry wasn't such a boring person we would ahve a liberal leader by now. The public prefer to vote for the more interesting candidate than the issues which is sad. Also, we partly protest because we are very, very bored.
Life isn't about money, you could all the money in the world but feel nothing but stress from work. You should give up on what you believe is required to have a worthwhile life (cars, money, whores)
Life is about living for now, for being happy and being with others. Go on the road with some hippies and you will learn that there is more to life than working yourself to an early grave. Nature intended us to live with it rather than against it.
