More On, Greed
So this is a continuing followup on what began with this post : Seriously
So, in the last post I discussed some of my concerns about collective action
and ---> what I claim to be the major show stopper for cultural advancement
and an evolving society, " the one and only ",,, greed. ( also addressed here
at Demons & Dogmas ).
The big questions is, can greed be overcome? I think the answer is a
some what personal one and clearly involves the issues of generosity.
But we can obverse that we are constantly getting feedback on this
issue and it really connects to personal behavior and how we
perceive generosity, as well as other human virtues. Just following
along with the previous post here, this has a profound effect on
collective action and the effectiveness of collective action more so
than one might initially expect, without giving due consideration to
it.
So we really need to bring into focus the need for self examination
on matters of this type and this also ties directly back to the
initial post above relating to how we take up , and pursue collective
actions on all levels, that is of the individual, family, community, and
so forth, and also, how we perceive the relationships of these
variously connected groups. ( yes, an identity is a group )
The topics are really important and are issues that need to be addressed
in the present, but clearly moving on if we are serious about a future for
anybody. But honestly and sincerely, none of this is easy.
