It's Duct Tape - not Duck Tape

 

There is an odd gap between knowing and doing.  We know, for example, that the earth is unstable.  It shifts and moves, and yet we stack up bricks in the shape of buildings, and we live and work inside of them, all the while knowing gravity and the shifting ground works against us.

 

We discovered fire and its dangers, yet we construct houses out of things that burn.  

 

We invent harmful chemicals and then spray crops and food with them.  

 

We establish insurance to protect us from sudden expenses, then allow the same insurance companies to raise the cost higher than the potential expense.

 

Some might suggest there are flaws within our common sense. Our abilities have exceeded the level at which they provide good and safety.

 

Our educational system generates intelligent people, and yet we allow the rich, rather than the smart to lead us.

Please consider these as observations
rather than complaints.
With respect to being at the top
of the food chain,
I wouldn't put it to a vote.
