Greed, irresponsibility & fear....
These are the greatest diseases known to human kind.
Greed - wanting and taking more of what is freely available to all, than you need, use or are willing to put back into the cycle of life, just because you can.
Irresponsibility - indifference. Not making the choices and decisions that are uniquely yours to make, therefore leaving those choices and decisions to someone else to make, causing these others to carry more than they should, or else giving them more power than they should have.
Fear - mental or emotional distress caused by the possibility of having to experience pain, lack, shame or failure.
If these diseases were eradicated from the human gene pool, what would happen? What would life be like for the human species on this planet?
Socialism?
Socialism in a nutshell, because the average person is too irresponsible to find out for themselves what socialism really is, is when a society uses an economy to produce things based on need, not based on profit. Capitalism is a social economy based on producing things for profit, regardless of need.
In our current moment of evolution, we as a whole species only see the words capitalism, socialism, greed, poverty, need, freedom and equality.
We do not see the true meaning of any of these, much less do we know how they work or what the implications of these concepts are.
You cannot have freedom without responsibility. If you are not responsible, your freedom starves and dies. Then you have to reckon with poverty - need without the means to acquire. Then you become dependent on someone else to provide for you and make decisions about your life. Which means you are "owned".... no longer free.
But this is a choice.
When you are owned, you are like a small child. You are not given the "freedom" to make your own choices because as a small child your choices are ill-informed, irresponsible and often selfish. Your freedom comes as you mature and become able to make wise choices.
Most ill-informed citizens assume that if the economy is not capitalist, that if must be socialist. Socialism brings the fear of limitation - a government that dictates you can only have as much as your fellow citizens and never any more. Equality. This causes fear because the human soul screams to be free to create, to accomplish, to expand!
Capitalism on the other hand, plays upon human weakness, want and un-curbed desire. Is this wrong? The majority of modern society considers narcotic drug addiction to be wrong, detrimental, unhealthy and unwise. But isn't it a choice like everything else? If so, then why are narcotic drugs illegal? Isn't McDonalds just as unhealthy and unwise? Yet it is an American institution... Actually a world-wide institution at this point! It isn't illegal. Because somewhere along the lines of society, someone is very very wealthy because of the human indiscretion of others. This is the current model of capitalism that we live in. As those born and bred in a capitalist society, we can't see the forest for the trees. Those in other non-capitalist nations look on and see our absurdity and think we're mad!
What we are is irresponsible.... greedy.... and afraid.
There should be NO LIMIT on the human experience! But in order for this to work for everyone, without imposing a socialist or communist system, people must reclaim responsibility for their own lives.
No one can legislate human choice without causing limitation.
Choice.
If you think the now infamous "1%" is greedy, then stop feeding them. You feed them by being dependent on them. You feed them by believing everything they tell you without searching the truth for yourself.
If you fear pain, lack, shame or failure - then search your own soul and find out why. Fix yourself from within. Become healthy, strong, competent.
Become responsible for your own life.
Examine everything your tax dollars pay for. How much of that should YOU be responsible for instead of someone else? Things like taking care of the elderly.... That used to be a "family" responsibility. Things like education.... That too used to be a family, neighborly responsibility. If we became involved and responsible for our own communities, we would not need most of the government officials that our tax dollars pay for.
Politics has become an industry! A for-profit industry. Who's fault is that?
Energy.... Energy is abundant on this Earth, why do we pay so much for it? Why do we fear having our electricity turned off if we can't pay the bill?
Because something so essential to our lives has become a for-profit industry.
Education is an essential.... Now it's a for-profit industry.
Healthcare.... A human necessity, is now a MONSTROUS for-profit industry.
Who is to blame???
You are.
