What the hell is going on? ? I'm pissed off now!

Are you aware of what is taking place in Canada? Recently I read an article, its posted on my FB page and then I was in an audience istening to world famous scientists David Suzuki and Tim Flannery speak who basicly confirmed what the article said. I came away from their discussion feeling like our little planet is doomed. So I continue to ask my self....why do we run like mad people just  about every single day of our lives to do what we do? To get us  where? Is it because our government has conditioned us to do so? And what right do they have to or positive experience to be able to do that to us.I am pissed off even more so now and afraid for the future even more than before.
