German Economic Propaganda is the Answer!!

During WW2 the minister of German propaganda, Joseph Goebbels, played with unemployment figures and made propaganda posters that made Germans support the economy. There was a promise of economic growth and proclamations of how great the Germans were a a people. These lies and half-truths actually perked up a dead economy. It has me thinking...maybe propaganda aint that bad.

When all I see is the dreaded "r-word" (recession) in economic headlines everyday, I can't help but see the market goes down when we see negative headlines. When investors see this they panic and sell. Their personal stress do to these headlines dominoes into nationwide economic stress.

How amazing is the media and it's impact! I know it seems wrong, but maybe we should consider some positive economic propaganda for the greater good, to use the media as a tool for positive change. You don't have to lie, just accentuate the positive. Just a little....come on the media screws with us anyways, why not use your powers to improve things. I will help. I am a designer and I have actually made my own fun propaganda posters for high gas prices. I could do this...like subliminal propaganda advertising.

It isn't like the media doesn't bend the truth anyways, with Rupert Murdoch in charge of like 70% of the news out there, he definitely has his hand in the cookie jar of truth. So why not use your power for the greater good....I mean they said it in Spiderman, with great power comes great responsibility. So do something good dammit!

Welcome to my life and my dreams

I hope to become a blogging superstar....nah. I am here to share my thoughts and my experiences though my life and career as a designer and artist. I think I am one of those that walks the road less taken, or the one that no one one even thought to take. I am different, a lot of people say this, I feel like I was destined for great things...some say this too. But I have always felt this inside of me. If I want to achieve my dreams I am going to fight and fight hard to get what I want.
What are my dreams you may ask?

Well, it changes year to year I guess. But one thing remains constant, I want to become great as a designer. I want to be so good other people want to learn from me and make my mark on the design community and the world. I guess this is the same dream as a lot of others, but I believe I can offer change and innovation. I've got ideas...a million good ones, but getting to the level of success to prove that I should be heard is hard.

So is my journey and if you want to come with me, I would love the company. If you have ideas and thoughts to share I would love to hear them.
