They may be "useless" to society, but so are children, and toddlers, and aged people. Should we lock them all up too? Maybe inject a chemical in them to kill them?
I may hate humans, but chemically killing someone because they're "useless" to society. Society as a whole is useless.
BUT we DO lock them up, toddlers in kindergarten, where parents send them just to get some time for themselves, children in school, and old people in retirement homes. WE dont think about it, but we always get rid of what is useless to us, we just want to leave one working unit to rule our society, and thats adults.
Good point, but now I'll counter that we lock adults up too. We lock them up in work, so all they think about is work, and a family if they have one. Works consumes the majority of people, for what? For money? Humans don't need money, society needs money to run. We never needed money at all. We need work, but we don't need money to go along with it. Work is meant to be for the best of humanity. Money is not the best of humanity. Work should bring equality, but instead it brings disorientation.
We're all locked up, and we don't need to be.
touche...but without work we wouldnt have money, thus we wouldnt have all the fancy things that we are so used to. The computer you are typing this on, it was made by people, with one thing in mind---money. Anything that you own belongs to society, thus it doesnt belong to you. We lock up adults because, like i said, they are the ONLY functional unit of our society. Without them we would be living in the Dark Ages, with no luxury, confused, scared, and just plain retarded. The society gives people hope, and a vision of the future. All the way from kinder garden we are taught that the only way to succeed in life is by studying, getting a better job, getting money. I personally despise that tactic, and i wish i could do something about it, but society overpowers any man by giving its people the sense of false security, or "hope", thus the majority belongs to society, thus society wins
