Alienation is the new black

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/6901147.stm
Today we were told that the huge disparity between the richest and poorest causes alienation. Recently, we were told that our carbon footprints are so huge they cause alienation between ourselves and those from poor countries. We are constantly told that the Foreign policy of the British government alienates mainstream Moslems and makes young Moslems want to blow themselves and us up.

Alienation is hyper-trendy. Everybody in the world is alienated except perhaps me and you, and I'm not sure about you. I reckon the only solution is to murder all the hyper-rich people, take their money and distribute it to the people of Chad and Burkina Faso. Oh, and then murder all the pretty well-off people and give their money to the people of Belgium. Ok, I may not have thought this through very well...
