story of a sandwich

Our system. Is like a sandwich. The constituents that are at the top, the plain bread, are no different from that at the bottom. The so called glamorous ingredients of the package,the cheese and tomatos and stuff, however make up the middle class. U think you are more sell-able than others. you might even fetch a higher value in the market. but you end up in the middle class. very nicely, without alienating the bottom class, some of the plain breads make it to the top. who gives a damn to the middle class of the sandwich. its already divided. there is the cheese. and then there is the simple potato and tomato and the cabbage. all exist differently. and none of them thinks the other is necessary to make a good sandwich. that is the problem with them. where as the two breads, they never fight. u might try and turn around the whole system. still, the bread would be at the top. until the middle stuff gets its act together and gets together, the breads are going to have a blast. or you could try and be the bread. but by the time u realise the whole thing, u are probably a cheese or butter. and thats ur check mate :)
