Blogs Just Regurgitate Other Sources


Have you noticed that many blogs and websites simply copy word for word a relevant story and then post it as if it were their own? What a mindless activity, and it seems like that is what the internet has become.

I'll admit, I do similar things. I will post a story that I found on a news site, but I ALWAYS cite the source, and I usually paraphrase and throw my own opinion, or another view of the story, and try to read between the lines a bit.

It seems like many bloggers today simply cut & paste content to keep their blog current. This scam can be found on Survival blogs, Celebrity blogs and News blogs, or just about any blog.

It's a bit of a metaphor for what is happening to this Country. The Decision Makers throughout the Country are not doing anything new, not creating new policy, or generating new ideas, they are just regurgitating the same old plans that don't work, and that is why, in my life, I believe we'll see the collapse of America as the World's superpower.

Damn, I said I'd be posting happier posts, well, I guess not today :-)
