[ColorForth] Toys and non-pre-bent wheels ;-)

That's a terrible idea for reasons just too numberous
to explain.

That's certainly not as bad.
I don't want to get off on a rant or anything but... ;-)

NO NO NO! You must not reinvent the wheel you fool!
People would drive too fast.  The cars would get
too much milage and the oil companies are bigger than
you.  Non-pre-bent wheels would increase milage.
The tire companies are bigger than you are too.  Non-
pre-bent wheels would not wear out the tires
as fast and cut into that market too.

People could drive faster but those new wheels
wouldn't allow as many accidents.  The car
insurance and repair industry is quite a
scam, I mean large and pervasive respectable
industry.  Non-pre-bent wheels would damage
that industry too. You just don't get it.

Not allowing as many accidents would also have
a huge impact on doctors, hospitals, drug
companies, therapy and rehability not to
mention the funeral business.  And that
would effect other industries that support those,
the whole infrastructure!

My GOD with all those industries destroyed there
would be no taxbase so the govenment would have
to shut down or simply sieze any assets that
it could find.  The largest single business here, the
Federal Government here would be hurt.  Think
of all those programs that would have to
canceled!  They couldn't hand out all that
money to be obsorbed by the distribution system.

They might even have to reduce some of the tax
credits and kickbacks to the corporations and
individuals that own the govenment.  They couldn't
hand out all that money to give a few bonuses
and promote layoffs.  Diverting that much money
would be insane.  Also reducing layoffs would
result in a seller's market for the workforce
which would increase costs and reduce corporate
profit levels, not to mention that simply
reducing layoffs itself will also do that.

With all these industries going down there would
not as much polution.  Companies that money
with their wholey-owned subsidaries that clean
up their intentional pollution would be hurt.

The whole medical thing would be hurt again.
They results of the population aging more slowly
would also throw off all the social security
plans to cheat, I mean support, future generations.
They would then fail.  We would have all these old
people who don't consume as much stupid crap,
aren't as easily controlled, and are not happy
to become cheap replacable corporate parts
and they burn out faster than kids.

Even if all that doesn't cause an immediate
total destruction of everything that shift
in the demographics alone and reduction in the
exchange of money from all the cancers and
things will eventually cause total destruction
of everything we consider sacred.

The first industry that will fail is the wheel
industry.  Non-pre-bent wheels won't have that
carefully engineers planned obsolecence that is
essential to the whole economic system.  With
wheels that last forever and our off-the-
shelf-parts infrastructure there will only
ever be one run of wheel production again.
Those would be wheels that might last forever!
People would not want that!  They want to
keep up with Jones who got new-less-rusted
pre-bent wheels on their new SUV.

The industrys, will fall like dominos.  Then
the goverments.  Then the people who own them
will feel the impact. Ending in total collapse,
fammon, plauge, suffering, war and the
final days of mankind for sure.

You are horrible evil person who hates everyone
and wants to destroy civilization.  We need to
all join together, and fight this evil plan
to destroy civilization with non-bent-wheels.

That idea could cause everything that works
to no longer be locked in.  That's ALMOST as bad 
an idea as the non-pre-bent-idea store! 

Please don't bring up this horrible evil
non-pre-bent wheel idea again! :-)
