Double Standards, Crime Pays
27 September 2011
The message here is to be so self righteous as to believe obeying the laws and rules is for other people of less importance. First the world is dying and birth is regulated - Not us--we want to have more--- Secondly, only a limited few can go to the "promised land", yet again, we are above the rules and law. Break out of prison, smuggle the husband and third child into the new land. Number three, forget and forgive the criminal attitude. With an explanation that it was between him and his wife to have another child and it was no bodies else's business. So what if the world is dying from over population etc.. Our genes are better!!! Then the son, following in the footsteps of the parents, blows off orientation, leaves the compound,(with other teens who think they know it all and think laws/rules are for the lesser others).

They survive, no punishment, not even a good riot act reading!

The "6s" are the bad guys, why, because they think the laws and rules are wrong and do not apply to them. Great big double standard wouldn't you say.

In the mean time--the law/rule breaking family is elevated to the ruling upper class.

The message I get from this is to break all the laws/rules that I don't like, and I will be "REWARDED" with a better standard of living and power over those that proved they have lesser genes by the simple act of obeying the laws/rules.

I'm sure their retirement plan will be to feed the senior citizens to the Dino's. That is, just the seniors that lived by the rules. Real easy to forget they earned a retirement by working hard. Now throw them away! Lesser genes and all!!
