Life Is About Socialism

So Rachel and I watched the show "Life" on Discovery Channel on Sundays, mostly because my roommate turns it on but we like it anyway. So Oprah is the narrator for the show. Her commentary is quite illuminating on the subject of life. Each episode focuses on a particular group. One was about birds, one about reptiles, one about plants, etc. The most recent one was about primates. She made several comments about how similar we all are (primates that is). She commentatored on the primates that bathe in the hot springs in the snowy mountains of Japan for warmth. They only allow some to enter—even though there is plenty of the hot water to go around—because they formed their own class system. It was sad to see the poor underclass monkeys or whatever get left out by the "bouncer" of the social elites. We are pretty similar I suppose. Obama should help those monkeys get access to cesstub care. On an interesting side note, Oprah also thinks plants tend to be very humanlike. Apparently everything is like a human. Maybe we should do something about that.
