1. What a terrible decade |
|
95% of the photos are unambiguously tragic while still being highly representative of the time period.

2. I can't go through all of them. |
|
Like stopping to look at an accident on the highway.

7. I'm sorry, I should have posted a warning that some of the photos are graphic and disturbing. |
|
The editing time for my thread title is expired though.

4. The decade of gangster politics and murder. |
|
The past decade cemented forever the fact we are solely owned by cynical corporate fascists. We no longer have real choices in life. I fear for my children.

how just about ten years ago we were looking forward to a brand new century and a brand new millennium of peace and prosperity. At least, that's what most hoped for. My god, how so many things went horribly wrong in just a decade. Hell, look how many things went horribly wrong in the first year. Basically, I am not looking forward to the next decade...and I highly doubt we will have flying cars in five years (Sorry "Back to the Future Part II")

Not sure if this will be seen as the worst decade ever, probably not, but one of, for sure.

21. And, unfortunately... |
|
Liquor can't erase it all. Many of us still have huge headaches that are still going to be with us long after the hangover goes away. It's been a hellish decade, to grossly understate things. May the next one be a far sight better.

24. Greed and Hatred Kill Everything. |
|
Edited on Thu Dec-17-09 02:53 PM by HughBeaumont
"The point is, ladies and gentlemen, that greed, for lack of a better word, is shit. Greed is a deadbeat absentee parent; greed failed us and will continue to fail us. Greed corrodes futures, cuts through lives and prosperity, and distorts the essence of the evolutionary spirit. Greed, in all of its forms, greed for life, for money, for love, knowledge has marked the slow descent into the abyss for mankind. And greed, you mark my words, will not only destroy economy, politics and culture, but that other malfunctioning corporation called the USA. Thank you very much."
