Ok, so I had this whole philosophical thread ready about a particular subject, and then I realized, why would I post this. I've done this somewhere else, and the end result was my ideas were used by someone else in that they took full credit and I received none, they may have even indirectly made money from them (I know this sounds crazy but its the truth and I don't want to say exactly what it was because it's complicated) . So, while I failed philosophy in university because I believed the hype about SWED and smoked way too much weed, why should I even wright my ideas and receive no credit.
And I know people are going to be like oh noz dontz blamz the preziuz "sweet" mary jane (ironic because cannabis is actually bitter). But honestly, had I never touched cannabis my life was on track for success, and so far has been a disaster, I know several other people who have been through similar situations.

I could honestly explain this much better to convince the few honest people who would read this sort of thing and relate. Basically my point is, in a capitalistic society there is not often point in doing things without credit/earning money which is why our society is the way it is.

I could have spent way more time on this and explained my thoughts more thoroughly but what's the fucking point.

Now, I ask for the assistance of any relatively honest journalists reading this, please explain whether or not honest, hardworking and most of all creative journalism is worth it whatsoever, or whether it is a scum bag cheater-competition employment which and honest, hardworking, and creative person should avoid.

You don't have to be a journalist to comment obviously, say what you want, I wish I could see the point in expressing this idea more thoroughly.

Also, I don't think I'm smart or something if thats the impression you got, I consider myself relatively dumb and naiive.

umm...sorry, but I am really not quite clear on what you're getting at or asking about. I would consider posting this as either a blog entry, or clean it up a bit, and post to Education and Careers.
