I came across this piece on Scott Adam's blog and found it quite interesting. Thought others here might find it interesting too:

So if you are wondering how men become cold-blooded killers, it isn't religion that is doing it. If you put me in that situation, I can say with confidence I would sign up for suicide bomb duty. And I'm not even a believer. Men like hugging better than they like killing. But if you take away my access to hugging, I will probably start killing, just to feel something. I'm designed that way. I'm a normal boy. And I make no apology for it.
Now consider the controversy over the Syrian immigrants. The photos show mostly men of fighting age. No one cares about adult men, so a 1% chance of a hidden terrorist in the group – who might someday kill women and children – is unacceptable. I have twice blogged on the idea of siphoning out the women and small kids from the Caliphate and leaving millions of innocent adult men to suffer and die. I don't recall anyone complaining about leaving millions of innocent adult males to horrible suffering. In this country, any solution to a problem that involves killing millions of adult men is automatically on the table.
If you kill infidels, you will be rewarded with virgins in heaven. But if you kill your own leaders today – the ones holding the leash on your balls – you can have access to women tomorrow. And tomorrow is sooner.

What is the value of money if you don't get to spend it?
How about saving it and properly investing it so that you can become financially independent and retire significantly early? But clearly wasting your money on frivolous nonsense is more important. You need to Consume to be happy, Consumer!

And die as soon as possible thus relieving the earth of your pathetic and meaningless existence. Yes, retirement. Ha.

If I save my own money and retire early, that's up to me.
And you seem to assume that the only useful people are those who are wage slaves. Why? A lot of that work is utterly useless. In my retirement, I have worked on many free software projects and did lots of volunteer work, which benefits others. So why do you assume you have to be a corporate drone to be useful? Is that the result of indoctrination?
