Once again, we can find the roots of what ails us in this thing we call human nature. Greed; the need to control; the need to have power over others. Where do these things come from? Fear, it seems.
So what is the fear? The fear of not having enough; the fear that unless we eternally pile up "more" we will somehow go without. Which is also a very old debate, albeit less political: Do we live in a world of "plenty" or do we live in a world of "scarcity?" Fear tends to grow from scarcity, so those who would be tyrants and controllers tend to try to sell the story that there is scarcity in the world, and "they have the answer," in one variation or another.
But whose vision is functionally more accurate? If 1% of the world's population can control 50% of its wealth (this is NOT a "political" statement) I would submit we actually live in a world of "plenty," regardless of how wealth is actually distributed; scarcity is merely a marketing illusion.
If that is true, how do we take away the fear and simply point to tyrants and expose them as they are: "Oh, you're simply afraid of something so you feel you must control things!" and then prevent their power.
I wish I had the answer my friend. I too believe we live in a world of plenty- but I've never had enough sense to be afraid of anything. The worst thing they can do is kill you and then what???
