Jon Stewart's 'Rally to Restore Sanity' goes global, sparking events all the way to Mt. Everest
It seems kind of ironic to me that Jon Stewart's "The Daily Show" which is a news parady show and The Colbert Show are behind a now international event to restore sanity to the world political process which now reminds me of a bunch of people in a lifeboat all thinking they are going to die. So, any attempt at rationality can be helpful. If the Chilean miners had all acted like all the panicked people on earth now do you actually think ANY of them would be alive now? NO.
Hard times and bad times have always been with humans periodically. This is just one of thousands of times in the past where the planet has gone through extreme changes. And one of the things that has gotten people through these extreme times is to have enough leaders who could keep their heads cool so people just didn't form mobs and run amok all over the earth.
Yes. Unfortunately, people will have to right the world problems from the grass roots movements up. Top down solutions will only breed revolutions in many countries. So, the idea of a "Rally to Restore Sanity" going Global is a beginning of people trying to keep cooler heads so something positive can actually be accomplished during these very dangerous economic and political times worldwide.
