The Lorax

Last night I read my favorite book in the whole world. The Lorax by Dr. Seuss. I know and now your all thinking how childish. Well it's like Alice in Wonderland. There is a secret meaning. I love this book, it shows how society has gone to hell. Let's think about this: you see what you want, you take it and don't replace it and then it's gone. Reminds me of the rainforest. We had the cure for Aids type 2. And now it's gone because we distroyed it, but will the government tell you that? NO! You distory whatever is in your way. The Oncler wanted the tree's even though he distroyed the food for the Bar-ba-loot's and the humming-fish, and the swomee-swans. It didn't matter. But the Lorax he stood up to the "government" also known as the oncler, for what he believed. I want to be like the Lorax, I want to be able to stand up to anyone. Whether I'm right or wrong, for what I believe is right. "I am the Lorax. I speak for the tree's for the tree's have no tounges. And I'm asking you sir, at the top of my lungs"-"What's that THING you've made out of my Truffula tuft?" To many people out there "don't have tounges" and no one will stand up for them. They need a champion more then you or I. I sit comfortably I have some money, a car, a house, food. What about the poor. It's not that they don't want a job, but it's a vicious cycle of poverty. And it's not easy to get out. Where would women be without a women's right activists? Or blacks without Martin Luther King? Everyone needs a someone to be there champion, until they can stand on there own two feet. Where do I fall into all of this?
