A George Carlin classic

One reason that we're good at war is that we practice a lot. We're a 200-year-old democracy, and we've had ten major wars. That's a war every twenty years. We're good at it, because we practice. We can't make a TV anymore, can't make a cellphone, can't make a VCR, we got no steel industry, no textile industry, we can't educate our young people, can't fix our old people and their problems with health, but we can bomb the **** out of your country.

Especially if your country is full of brown people. We like that. That's our hobby. That's our new job in the world, bombing brown people. Iraq, Panama, Grenada, Libya. You got some brown people in your country? Tell them to watch the f@ck out!

Who were the last white people that you can remember that we bombed?
The Germans. That's it. They're the only ones, because they were
trying to cut in on our action! They wanted to dominate the world.
F@ck you, that's our job!

The planet will be here for a long, long, LONG time after we're gone, and it will heal itself, it will cleanse itself, 'cause that's what it does. It's a self-correcting system.

The air and the water will recover, the earth will be renewed, and if it's true that plastic is not degradable, well, the planet will simply incorporate plastic into a new paradigm: the earth plus plastic.

The earth doesn't share our prejudice towards plastic. Plastic came out of the earth. The earth probably sees plastic as just another one of its children. Could be the only reason the earth allowed us to be spawned from it in the first place. It wanted plastic for itself. Didn't know how to make it. Needed us. Could be the answer to our age-old egocentric philosophical question, "Why are we here?"

Plastic...a**hole.
