@randomfatblob If you dont care about this dont watch it. This is for people who care about these liberal things you are probably one of those gang boys who live on the street. You care for no intention of whats happening to the world, what if you were that african in the video who lives on 1.25 cents a day. You wouldnt be argueing now. So if you have nothing to say then go away we dont need the likes of you here no one likes you the world doesnt its people like you that make the world corrupt
@superpeep1 what the hell makes you think i am a gang person? i have a fucking job to make a decent living unlike many people in the world who just lie around waiting to be fed. i don't understand why you people think that we must spend our hard earned dollars on these people who are unwilling to do it themselves. people like you are ruining america! youd probably go vote for obamar again asshole
@ghostrj that is because they are unwillling to provide for themselves. this is america! we need to stop giving out free handouts to the rest of the world and let them learn hwo to take care of themselves. why are liberals trying to destroy the best country on the earth for peopel who don't want to provide for themselves?
@randomfatblob I'm the joke? Your piece of shit country spends enough money in ONE week on defence to feed the entire world for a year. Fuck you and your national pride.
@stinkfistington that is becasue it is nessessary. you are just jealus that you are not an american i assume since we are the best, most smartest peopel in the world. i am so sorry for your ignorance. may god bless you and your family :-)
@randomfatblob I honestly feel bad for you if that is how your brain works. You're not backing up your claims of intelligence very well with your poor grammar and incorrect use of the word ignorance. The world is a very poorly run business, your country is a very high stock holder that is fueled by world domination and waging war with countries purely to suck their natural resources dry. I wont even bother with the mention of religion..
@randomfatblob Lol - I love it how all Americans think everyone else 'wants to be an American'. Bless their little hearts, they think they live in a free country.
@stinkfistington reason we are not doing well because you are attacking the wrong person...americans have no say so about the 2% will all the money that runs the country..basically the system is broken, to fix it people have to unite against the few who run the world...
@thedeadblob If you dont care about this dont watch it. This is for people who care about these liberal things you are probably one of those gang boys who live on the street.

If one knows about the "pseido-elites" plan and agenda to reduce global population down to 500 Million people ...then ...such spots are not very funny! The Depopulation agenda is serious business ...it is the cause of lab-created viruses spread and wars ignited and terrorism designed and performed! To implement these criminals ideas ...all those movies are launched: Earth without humans and all desaster-movies serve the aim: to realize this ...with your mental participation!
@jawsflounderace No ..I dont! Dont you watch mainstream-news ...and see all these crimes happening: NATO-Terrorists killing innocent people, joining the American Criminals from CIA and their payed private armies ...moving from country to country and looting them out ..leavin behind a mess!? This has nothing to do with Mr. Jones. This guy only delivered few tiny aspects of the revealation of the whole truth! Just the movie, showing the spirit of Bohemian Grove Club. I dislike Jones agitations!
Those 21 persons who didn't like the video, are 21 individuals who have their eyes closed or want to remain with their eyes closed for the facts and realities of this globe!
This is horse crap, the reason those numbers are so astonishig is because 74% of the world is in Africa and Asia, tell me if I am wrong 61+13 is 74, 61 Asians for every 100 people and 13 africans per every 100 people, is 74%, WOW this is basicly telling us how shitty their lives are.
I feel like Africa, which was screwed somewhat by europeans, is screwing themselves even more now. They know they have aids, yet they have about 15 children! nice?
@packercat17 The "screw" against Africans is not "european". It started ...British together with Arab Kings ...catching trading them as slaves ...to work in the "New Colonies" ...which are now America! While "nation-building" ...Africa got "screwed" again ...by the agents of IWF! google: the confessions of an economic hitman !!! Very revealing ...how it is done! ...and not only in Africa! Your stateement shows ...you have a tiny mind ...with very little grains of knowledge about reality!

I know this is all statistical, but I'm sure if there were only 100 people alive on Earth, we'd all be friendly with each other, share the wealth...and stuff.

The figure for internet penetration as of March 31 2011 was 2,095,006,005, which is 30.2% percent of global population. Where the 8% figure was arrived at from I don't know. It's so wrong it makes one question the other stats, which is sad as it is a good idea, well executed, except some possible juking of the stats
Careful! You can have access to Internet or have Internet at home, that's different. In a lot of countries, the only way to go on Internet is to go to a "Cyber cafe". I guess that one of the difference.
@ghune You make a valid point but the point I am making is that the figure used in the video does not reflect the reality of the myriad of ways people connect to the internet. It provides a misleading representation of internet access. The 8% figure accounts for fixed line connection, which ignores that the main form of connection to the web in africa is over a mobile device, as telco's prefer to invest in the mobile network as it is cheaper to do so then build a while fixed line network.

@Earo16 :¿ why don't you read a little ?, the Zulus and other tribes used to have a rich and healthy civilization on Africa, till the greedy Europeans came and destroy everything ... read, and think before you write. oh i forget "12 cannot read" ...
@drpepperinyourcup123 you have no clue what you are talking about and you make yourself sound stupid by using bad language about the country you live in. maybe you should move to a country like France, you know a country where they spend a fraction of us on aid. we spend the most. period.
Comments in this thread that blame the poor for being poor are not constructive, helpful, kind, nor valid. If I work and I'm wealthy, that does not mean that the poor did not work.
@NPRguitar You have to ask yourself why all those other people don`t have "those things" This video is not to make you , the lucky ones, feel bad... its to raise ssome attention to the other % who is a lot bigger than its supposed to be.
@LooNuHH Let's look at Africa. A poor, malnourished, unsanitary hellhole. Why is it that way? Because they, as a whole, never fucking civilized themselves. Hell, if the Europeans hadn't come over and developed parts of the continent, it would still primarily be a bunch of tribes, running around, doing nothing.
The rich people aren't "lucky." They, and their ancestors, worked hard to get what they want--and they have it.
@daveyh83 I am pretty fucking happy. My ancestors worked hard to ensure that I am pretty fucking happy, and I will work hard to ensure that my descendants are pretty fucking happy. Perhaps Africans could be pretty fucking happy as well if they worked towards civilization.
@Earo16 goodness your naive. how can you call africans uncivilized? when EVERYONE, came from africa, and it's one of the first places civilization developed from. the europeans destroyed alot of what africans had worked towards when they came. furthermore, juuust because it's not what you considered civilized, doesn't make it not. being "civilized" is a state of mind, but i can understand how you wouldn't realize that, cause your clearly out of yours.
the only problem i have with the video is "appreciate what you have", pretty condescending especially coming from this video that has a more developed meaning.
and the disproportion on the the military and development aid is making this video have less credibility. HOWEVER, the message on the NEEDS that developing nations have is pretty evident.
@sejeenaldmo3 The point is to show people the makeup of the world and what is going on in simple proportions/percentages (out of a 100) for better understanding of civilization.
$1.24 trillion on global military expenditures? 6.9 billion people on earth = 69 million groups of 100. $1.24 trillion X 69 million = $85.56 quintillion. Global military expenditures in 2010 = $1.5 trillion. It would take more than 5.56 million years to reach $85.56 quintillion. This doesn't add up...propaganda?
I think its just meant for those 8/100 people to realize how much change needs to occur for an economic equilibrium.
That being said,
I wish it had music, i feel like it would have been more effective, unless there was an over reaching concept as to why there was no music that i misse

nice video BUT. i find it kind of arrogant that westerns always assume everyone has to lead their lifestyle. there may be tribes and stuff in africa who do not need or want a refrigerator, computer or stuff and still like their lives. considered this? plus, there are places where you CAN live on 1,25 $ day ..like in asia, africa and then there are places where you defintely CAN'T- usa, europe. not everything is comparable.
@amyyyamy yea but the problem is that many of these foreign countries where people live on 1.25 a day are actually in debt to the world bank and IMF. the countries have no money to help their people by giving them clean water etc. because they are paying off the interest on the debt to the banks. the people are literally turned into slaves. it is definitely important for us to preserve the cultural heritage on earth though. the earth is becoming homogenized and disconnected. peace
It's interesting that the percentage of people who "Don't Like" this simple and powerful video equals the average percentage of functioning sociopaths in any given community...
@ethicability DERP. Sociopaths run for elected office to maintain the status quo. If you want change, wake up and join a real movement that actually reads and knows what's going on and understands that the state of the world is by design. Read Confessions of an Economic Hit Man to find out the rest.
@ethicability So whats wrong with being a sociopath? If I really want something why shouldn't I get it by any means? If I don't know someone why should I care about them?
Oh there is a solution to this. One that will absolutely work.
STOP BREEDING LIKE RABBITS HUMANS!
Resources on Earth are finite and already over-exploited as it is. The only solution is to reduce population or things will spiral permanently out of control and there won't be any development aid, but resource wars, with the stronger west simply taking over the weaker countries with some 'terrorist' excuse. (It's already happening in Iraq.)
I mean seriously, I'm all for improving the world and I've said for ages that military expenditures are ridiculously high. But everyone keeps dancing around the issue and saying people should have gigantic families if they want to, or that they have to or whatever, but FUCK no.
It'd be good for women's rights too anyway if they're not constantly pregnant. Population reduction is vital to the continued survival of humanity and if it doesn't happen humans are fucked.
dude there is enough resources on earth for every living person to have a quarter acre of just australia. for each individual. the problem is the fact that we are owned by corporations and we do not control the market. if it were up to the people, and the people were able to obtain the resources necessary to care for everyone on the earth, it would be done already. every person has the right to live well and can live well if we learn to work together. peace
@tkuliocowske Totally agree with you, but some will label this as communism and are against it because they are greedy. When they realize that their happiness depends on the happiness of others then they will change their ways. But until then, all we can do is work on ourselves to make the world a better place.
@lodenrogue no it is not communism. IF you decide to give your own money that is your choice...just dont say government should make everybody give their money. i personally would love to help people in need. i have been to india and understand the problems in the world. If people work together to fix this, thats great, but dont have my government spending money when it never solves the problems
@tkuliocowske no we don't have the right to live well...you have the chance to. and don't blame big buisness for problems in the world. although they can contribute, the main problem is an oversized government that takes the responsability of "distrubuting the wealth into their own hands'" i dont see why your comment is on the top
Wow, this put a lot of things in perspective. We just watched it in the Army Equal Opportunity Leader course I'm taking right now. Awesome presentation!
BS!! I worked my arse off for what I have. 9 to 12 hour days six days a week for close to 20 years and not counting the 18 to 20 hour days that I put in while in the military. I dont owe anyone anything as I worked for everything I have and came from a family that survived on 80. a week for nine of us. So if you have trouble feeding-clothing yourself and a roof over your head, then having kids and another mouth to feed would be out of the question. Cant feed em, dont have em!
@coffinsurfer1 Fuck you. You know much of an asshole your being? You realize we're in a recession? Do you realize how selfish youre acting and how lucky your family is? Go to hell.
@5565kr When you start out calling names as your best reply, then you have lost the argument completely. I stand by what I said and I really dont care if you like it or not.
@coffinsurfer1 Totally agree. Though for most of those people, Christianity buttfucking it's way into their lives and banning condoms and contraception are the reason why they can't help but have kids. They also don't HAVE the opportunity to work and live in higher standards. That said, America is a wonderful land of opportunity and you have but to work hard, as you probably have, and those in America need to understand that they have all they need, they just have to work to obtain it.Thumps up
I dont think it makes any sense for urbanization to come in since it was a trend that aimed to relocate the peoples to their respective places of work.
Nonetheless, the statistics were disturbingly realistic. Oh life...
@calvinhobbesliker2 A non-religious is an Agnostic, someone who does believe in "supernatural" factors, but in none religion. An Atheist is someone who believes in what he can live, in plain words.

@LooNuHH Let's look at Africa. A poor, malnourished, unsanitary hellhole. Why is it that way? Because they, as a whole, never fucking civilized themselves. Hell, if the Europeans hadn't come over and developed parts of the continent, it would still primarily be a bunch of tribes, running around, doing nothing.
The rich people aren't "lucky." They, and their ancestors, worked hard to get what they want--and they have it.

@daveyh83 I am pretty fucking happy. My ancestors worked hard to ensure that I am pretty fucking happy, and I will work hard to ensure that my descendants are pretty fucking happy. Perhaps Africans could be pretty fucking happy as well if they worked towards civilization.

@Earo16 goodness your naive. how can you call africans uncivilized? when EVERYONE, came from africa, and it's one of the first places civilization developed from. the europeans destroyed alot of what africans had worked towards when they came. furthermore, juuust because it's not what you considered civilized, doesn't make it not. being "civilized" is a state of mind, but i can understand how you wouldn't realize that, cause your clearly out of yours.

the only problem i have with the video is "appreciate what you have", pretty condescending especially coming from this video that has a more developed meaning.
and the disproportion on the the military and development aid is making this video have less credibility. HOWEVER, the message on the NEEDS that developing nations have is pretty evident.

@sejeenaldmo3 The point is to show people the makeup of the world and what is going on in simple proportions/percentages (out of a 100) for better understanding of civilization.

$1.24 trillion on global military expenditures? 6.9 billion people on earth = 69 million groups of 100. $1.24 trillion X 69 million = $85.56 quintillion. Global military expenditures in 2010 = $1.5 trillion. It would take more than 5.56 million years to reach $85.56 quintillion. This doesn't add up...propaganda?

nice video BUT. i find it kind of arrogant that westerns always assume everyone has to lead their lifestyle. there may be tribes and stuff in africa who do not need or want a refrigerator, computer or stuff and still like their lives. considered this? plus, there are places where you CAN live on 1,25 $ day ..like in asia, africa and then there are places where you defintely CAN'T- usa, europe. not everything is comparable.
amyyyamy 1 year ago
@amyyyamy yea but the problem is that many of these foreign countries where people live on 1.25 a day are actually in debt to the world bank and IMF. the countries have no money to help their people by giving them clean water etc. because they are paying off the interest on the debt to the banks. the people are literally turned into slaves. it is definitely important for us to preserve the cultural heritage on earth though. the earth is becoming homogenized and disconnected. peace

@ethicability DERP. Sociopaths run for elected office to maintain the status quo. If you want change, wake up and join a real movement that actually reads and knows what's going on and understands that the state of the world is by design. Read Confessions of an Economic Hit Man to find out the rest.

Oh there is a solution to this. One that will absolutely work.
STOP BREEDING LIKE RABBITS HUMANS!
Resources on Earth are finite and already over-exploited as it is. The only solution is to reduce population or things will spiral permanently out of control and there won't be any development aid, but resource wars, with the stronger west simply taking over the weaker countries with some 'terrorist' excuse. (It's already happening in Iraq.)
Send people condoms with their food relief I say.

I mean seriously, I'm all for improving the world and I've said for ages that military expenditures are ridiculously high. But everyone keeps dancing around the issue and saying people should have gigantic families if they want to, or that they have to or whatever, but FUCK no.
It'd be good for women's rights too anyway if they're not constantly pregnant. Population reduction is vital to the continued survival of humanity and if it doesn't happen humans are fucked.

dude there is enough resources on earth for every living person to have a quarter acre of just australia. for each individual. the problem is the fact that we are owned by corporations and we do not control the market. if it were up to the people, and the people were able to obtain the resources necessary to care for everyone on the earth, it would be done already. every person has the right to live well and can live well if we learn to work together. peace

@tkuliocowske Totally agree with you, but some will label this as communism and are against it because they are greedy. When they realize that their happiness depends on the happiness of others then they will change their ways. But until then, all we can do is work on ourselves to make the world a better place.

IF you decide to give your own money that is your choice...just dont say government should make everybody give their money. i personally would love to help people in need. i have been to india and understand the problems in the world. If people work together to fix this, thats great, but dont have my government spending money when it never solves the problems

BS!! I worked my arse off for what I have. 9 to 12 hour days six days a week for close to 20 years and not counting the 18 to 20 hour days that I put in while in the military. I dont owe anyone anything as I worked for everything I have and came from a family that survived on 80. a week for nine of us. So if you have trouble feeding-clothing yourself and a roof over your head, then having kids and another mouth to feed would be out of the question. Cant feed em, dont have em!

They also don't HAVE the opportunity to work and live in higher standards. That said, America is a wonderful land of opportunity and you have but to work hard, as you probably have, and those in America need to understand that they have all they need, they just have to work to obtain it.Thumps up
