Books for classes in College: 5+billion dollars every year....my books cost more than my classes!
"Class Action" The NewYorker: http://www.newyorker.com/archive/2005/11/07/051107ta_talk_surowiecki
Porn: 10+ billion$ per YEAR
Marijuana: 30+ billion$ per Year
Cocaine: Who knows, isn’t it obvious that the DEA is making mad money off of this stuff, and covering it up by taking down their competitors?
Tourism: A TriLLion dollars per year
Video games: 10+ billion$
Alcohol: 18+ billion last year
Music: I don’t know, but it costs 60$ to go to see Fat Joe….so business must be ok.
Everything else is in the dumps!
I’m attracted to all of these things, they pull at the basic strings of desire that exist deep within all of us. And there’s a reason for that. The top businessmen know me better than I do. They know us all better than we know ourselves, we are the proverbial mouse in the maze, and the scientists are using the right combination or fear and pleasure to keep us from knowing our full potential. BlackWater, Black Market, Black-op’s, BlackBook, whatever.
The worst part is that they use this money to buy other things in bulk(oil, clothes, food) and distribute them to the people of the country for a high price as well.
Now watch closely as the news attempts to justify all of this.
Meanwhile, I’m going to kick up my 100 dollar Nike’s onto the ottoman provided to me in my 300 dollar Hilton hotel room listening to my 300 dollar IPod while I play a 60 dollar game on my 600 dollar PS3 and sip on a 50 dollar pint of cognac, with 200 dollars worth of Marijuana and Cocaine laying on the stack of 10 dollar playboys and my 100 dollar textbooks on the night stand. Just kidding.

So what are the alternatives to being a walking sponge and paying for it?
Here's a few suggestions:
Instead of watching porn, go enjoy your wife or your girlfriend, or clean yourself up and have a REAL sexual encounter, it's much more satisfying.
Don't use alcohol or Marijuana, albeit sparingly, until you can provide it yourself. (it's all made from plants, which are free)
I think video games are a waste of time, unless you're getting paid for it.
It takes many many acres of precious rainforest to make one skinny little line of cocaine(and a whole lot of chemicals), so there's no reason to indulge here.
Convince women that they are beautiful, and that they, like men, can do anything they set their mind to. Stripping shouldn't be the only opportunity to make money for school.
You can usually check out textbooks from the library for two hours at a time, but this system should be improved, so that we have the OPTION of renting books to study.
My IPod broke, and they wouldn't give me a new one unless I paid them 135.00 to replace it. I promply gave Apple the finger. I can burn a cd for a dime.

That is so true.. You are so right about all these things. I wish everybody would start thinking like you, maybe we would have a better economy and not be broke all the time. Knowledge should be free, I mean heck it was in highschool and alot of my classmates still dropped out. The government is just scared that we are going to all get too smart and take over by not buying the shit that they make us think we need.
