The lamb in the wolf's den


A conspiracy is when you find clean and renewable energy and oil companies want to sink you. It's just that easy to be declared public enemy n1. This is pretty much what happened to Julian Assange after releasing information that many powerful people did not want.
You can become the new Bin Laden in less you can say Wikileaks. I guess the terms in which logic is used to become such wanted person are now as volatile as a skyzophrenia. But this is how reality is now becoming an option and this is how fast it's happening.

In a recent news a group of scientists invented the first water-free washing machine to be put on the market for sale. Guess what? Big home-appliances names started offering big money to shut down the project and to buy the patent. Looks like a forced merging with little or no synergy but from those who came out with good deeds. These scientists are risking to be left in the shadow for inventing something rivolutionary.
Imagine the amount of water we will be saving along with the water bill at the end of the month. Think that there won't need any piping where you put this washing machine.

To be honest I believe that the home appliance industry is a bit of a jerk when acting in such a terrible way. They proposed large sums to buy this idea so they can lock it far away where the eye can see, rather than purchasing  or leasing the drawings to switch from an obsolete design towards a much more efficient one. This tells you how screwed up corporations are. They do not listen to people, but to market researches. Yes, a market research is far more credible than the reality spoken from those who buy their products.

It is a world-wide symptom of illness from the industry world and from the market place considering not to change direction when it's needed. The symptom turns to be a sickness and it has the face of a virtual cartel over the intellectual design of a washing machine. 
The corporate hive mind is thinking for us, it's deciding for us and it's acting upon our not-so-best interests.

Now this is just an example of how reality can be deceived and warped. The problem subsists when it's the entire world industries that collectively acts together like a drug cartel that s ready to strike anyone who dares to change the status-quo.
How sad and real this is. Greed is becoming top priority on a scale that we never thought it could exists among people. 

You can blame it on TV and the rest of the media, but in the end you very well know that we are not doing anything about it because our species is not adapting correctly through this change. It feels as if we are sitting in the car arguing who should sit shotgun while the driver is sleeping drunk at the wheel. Time is running out, but hope springs eternal.
