Yes it may seem as if this argument comes from one quite depressed or angered fellow but that is not the case. I don't see myself and my accomplishments, neither the people I know and their accomplishments, neither the people I admire and their accomplishments as the most important thing in life. There are far greater things things than those and far more important ones. In other words, why don't most people care about things that actually matter, that are actually significant, instead of stupidly occupying themselves with what is essentially nothingness.
interesting... I believe your hypothesis will be in part the end of civilization...
