Interestingly Distractive

How do you write a blog without explaining how ""insane" your life is? its everywhere, taking the good, the bad and ugly stories and summing them up with one of the most feared and yet culturally pervasive ideas in the modern age. Perhaps people cant help but find it attractive thanks to its awesome reputation. People are easily scared. Bloggers, for instance, are scared of losing their audience. Perhaps if they were less focused on clickbait (ahem "pretty normal me") than genuinely interesting content they might be less boring, but who knows how many people are going to really tune in; in the end, the customer is always right.
So, it seems appropriate to start of with politics. The Western World is descending into farce due to the scarily accurate predictions of Karl Marx, and some Asia seems to be in a pretty sweet spot, maybe because they're more focused on economics than politics, maybe its somewhere to move to. Certainly their currencies are more unstable than ours but the houses are cheap. I know people who work half the year in England and live off that money for 6 months in barley. That's what politics should be about for the working class, finding the right way around the system so your not just stuck in the same dead end job for the rest of your life. That's something the media wont tell you and something politicians wont want you to talk about, because there are some jobs that you need to fill in a society and you need to convince people that's the best their going to get.
