We live in a unipolar world. I
cannot assess whether or not this is a good thing, however I am happy. The social problems that we see in societies
that are advanced technologically, the west if you may, are a result of over
indulging in our free choice. We have
the choice to eat, drink, smoke, inject, snort and mate whatever we wish. It is this over consumption of commodities in
the free market that leads one down the road of poverty, ill health, and misery. We are not all murders and envious, however
we have to learn to moderate our desires in this free world. This world that the west has created. The west have won the cold war as the east
have broken up and are not in a position to dictate. Life in the west is good. Europe is democratic, free and rich. Luxuries not afforded in east and south are
common play in the west. It is difficult
to assess, but the winner seems to be the USA coalition. Now we have to bargain a pragmatic social
contract that involves freedoms. We have
to moderate the right amount of consumption.
Right thought right action.
