I wonder how many times we will
hear these numbers just "slip out"
without much fanfare until we are
numb and can't be bothered to care
anymore. Deliberate overload.

Excellent point. We are numb
to a military in over 100 countries
it would seem, so, why not
huge amounts of cash printed
and dumped into the economy. Not
even on these issues, but I find the
feeling of this numbing effect
to be what leads to 'not-caring', and
a sense of complacency has evolved
I would say probably due to numerous
types of deliberate overload or overload.
I think your onto something here. This
could be a stimulus for the whole implosion
of caring into the state much of
population, including myself at one point,
has become.
I do know I feel a personal overload
when I go into the city or am around the TV
too much or even the internet anymore. This
is also why I like zazen, walk in the woods,
or make a fire and sit by it. It's to get rid of
this clutter... ah yes, I think Pirsig called it
clap-trap maybe...
Also this is what Pirsig talked about in this
loss of caring. The spirit weakened.
hhmmm, I think I'm going to think about
this a bit more.
