Today as I was driving through Honolulu City on my way home, it absolutely disgusts me! All the buildings going up... The economy is already high, and now it's actually being said or should we say, conspired, that there will be an economy disaster that is about to hit... "They" say our tourism slumped at 14.3% - that's pretty bad. The airline business is going crazy... one minute it's out of business the next it's in... then all of a sudden another airline out of the blue, goes out of business too. While American Airline is stopping all operation for some "unknown" reason. Hell, yeah it's going to affect the economy around the world!
Hawai'i's #1 business is Tourism! Who did that? Who created the system that we had to depend on "Tourism"? The Capitalists! That's who! Can someone tell me... wouldn't it make sense if we could stop "All" importing? We have enough supplies here to feed and provide us. Today we are too caught up in the society that forces us to believe "we can't live without..." attitudes. We are depending on convenience and not faith! We are compromising our faith with "we can't live without...".
Now - if we can just stop! Take a look at the 20, 30 story building, "housing or accommodating" approximately 20 - 30 thousand people, if we took that piece of land and cultivated it to grow vegetables, fruits or pastorize... as we did back in the days, we could accommodate more for a longer time, working to expand and progress! We had our stock supplies walking around, freely! But instead, today... our society builds buildings and manipulate us to think it'll provide us with jobs... well that is short term opportunities. Jobs don't provide contently if you have a family of three working on $8.50 hour, housing, clothing, feeding and providing little necessities for daily use. Now if we can just cultivate what we need to survive instead of DEPENDING on importing? We have cars that needs gas... we have buildings that needs plumbing, electricity, technology and more! Concrete buildings will suck you dry financially, developing emotional, psychological and spiritual poverty! If we come together and work together as one, we will be in a better environment! We can socialize, we can teach and learn, we can rebuild our islands and bring our independence back! The shipping costs is hurting our economy! Let's stop and think about it people! Work together, stop compromising! Depend on Akua! NOT MAN! At one time in Hawai'i, we had the largest sugar company! What happened! I'll tell you... "They" compromised!
