Tomorrow, taxes are due.  Tea parties will erupt. 

Opposition will react. 

Nonsense will come from both sides.

All over pieces of paper, plastic cards and tiny bits of metal.

Dont get me wrong, I appreciate money...

In fact, I'd appreciate this much money, right about...NOW!  No?  Alright then...

I like capitalism and my role in its practice.

Every once in a while though, I have to step back and take an objective look at the human condition.

Really, without faith that those pieces of paper, plastic cards and tiny bits of metals are actually worth something, our economy, nay, our society would collapse.

Faith is a powerful thing.

Not to mention being mighty nice to look at and listen to...

But faith can also lead us to getting wrapped up in some pretty incredible behavior.  Some of that behavior is good for the human condition.

PICTURED:  Pure awesome.

Some of it, not so much.

PICTURED:  Pure evil

Again, I enjoy my share of the pieces of paper, plastic cards and bits of metal that make up our monetary system.  Sometimes I have to wonder if our society is being held back from something greater in our pursuit of them.  They make for a fun game, and a nice bit of occupation.  But are they distracting us from some greater purpose?

I dunno, I'm just some DJ.

P.S.  Yes, I know some of my recent Blogs have been a little "heavy".  It's just a phase.  I'll grow out of it.  Honest.
