Not the nature of nature.

A few days ago a conversation was started about "The World Getting Worse".   I was trying to convince a woman who made the statement (the world is worse) the world has always been as we see it now.  She said she had been alive longer and knew better.  I said I read history books that show repeatedly the horrible things people have done.  The speed and ease information is spread and the speaking of a common language can make things seem worse, along with the blending of truth and lies.  Being shocked or amazed by revelation can feel overwhelming but human behavior is reactionary and unpredictable and there is no stable state that can be created by mankind.  It is not the nature of nature.

In the 1970's McDonald's made a commercial jingle 'McDonald's is Your Kind of Place' and it was parodied.  I don't know how anyone heard the parodied version(s). There wasn't the Internet of today.  Anyhow my point is somehow it made it out into the world.  Below are a few videos.  They sum up real potential in humans.  Potential, the word, can be used to proclaim a high hope.  Likewise it can mark a new low.  Whichever end of the spectrum's boundary is breached potential resets and waits for new growth in both directions.

This is the parodied version of "McDonald's Is Your Kind of Place"  I heard.

McDonald's is your kind of place

Hamburgers in your face 

Pickle relish up your nose

French fries between your toes

Ketchup running down your back

I want my money back before I have a heart attack
