Yes, that is true, but it does have negative effects. Maybe Jewish people wouldn't be so...rigid (I won't say sour) if the Eygyptians hadn't slavified them.

Huh, I suppose, though if you think back to those days, what other methods could people have used to get their work done? Much of the methods we have today took very long to even comprehend. Besides, in their case, Slavery actually made work more efficient back in the day because you could always assign people to it, regardless of their skill, to further the production of their projects. Look at labor today, if you let people do their own projects, they either drop short, or are done over too long a period of time that the project gets behind schedule.
Sheesh I love being Devil's Advocate.

*Laughs* you're so evil! No wonder Paka admires you!
Hmm, what to destroy, something Nemesis can't argue with, AT ALL.
Hm....
Rust? How could rust being wiped from existance collaps the eco- oh, rust selling corporations...
Um...
T.V? I know it's insane, but the world would be a much better place without it.

As much as I think destroying TV would help the world become a bit more productive, I'm afraid removing it now would catastrophically alter how the world runs today.
People get many things off of TV these days, whether it be entertainment value, the news, or even their own personal interests, there are many things that TV offers now that people have grown accustomed to.
Asking people to change their lifestyle from TV to, say, the internet, would be a dramatic step. Many people don't know how to use a computer, and even if they did, what would happen if the internet in their area went down for some unknown reason? TV these days is still a quick method to get information quickly. (Or entertainment.)

I thought this was about random stuff we want destroyed...not about how it would unbalance the economy...anyway... Teenage-Mutant-Ninja-Turtles. Trying to appeal to every audience fails...

Okay, I'll give you the fact that the TMNT shouldn't be attempting to appeal to all audiences, because it never will. The problem here rests that there ARE in fact TMNT fans already, and removing TMNT itself would really diminish some people's form of entertainment. I'm not saying it would be as harsh a blow as say, removing the internet, but people would be affected by it.
If it came down to it though, I could certainly live without TMNT.

Why don't people go watch something better...like...um, oh, what's on TV these days? Anyway, another thing much like that is Power Rangers. Went down hill after the first season. They've even tried ninjas...

Oh boy, don't even get me started on that screw-up of a series. The first season was good enough, but when they started using so many different derivatives to constantly squeeze everything out of the series, it just got horrible.
Don't even get me started on the ninja part, I'm not a fan of ninjas, so that already drew me away faster.

Hmmm, I haven't thought of something to destroy in a while.... How about jocks? Yes, I know we could probably think of a reason for needing them, but it doesn't change the fact that I hate them.
