Relationship crisis

{07/02/2010} The year had barely started and a cold front hit America. The plans to properly address climate change did not come to fruition. There was a growing indignation among the people towards their leaders, the corrupted politicians, the corporations, the lords of selfishness. Many still struggled to simply feed themselves, while others tried to survived suicide attacks, warfare and/or gratuitous violence in the cities and the countryside.

Meanwhile the youth could not make themselves heard. Perhaps, it was because they were also alienated from the conscious process, a process with was divided among ghettos of cheap ideology and invented by technology for immediate, one-off consumption. The youth invested their time in virtual communication, but did not advance to the point of bringing new ideas to deal with old relationship crisis. Therefore, quick relationships became a trend: consensual sex with no strings attached made safe by the use of condoms and contraceptives. If there were consequences such as pregnancy, the solution depended on the financial situation of those involved and not on moral principles. {Chronicle 081}
