Changing the mindset
Call it Humanism and not Socialism! We need to take a step back from political rhetoric and really look at why we have immediate kneejerk reactions to the concept of helping uplift our fellow humans. It seems that it relates to the fear of taxation, which would lead to fear of loss and risk of not having enough? We don't need a social mindset, but a human one, we do better when everyone does. This is not liberal rhetoric, but truth proven by history, anthropology and sociology. We need to get beyond political one-liners and see that the system is not a human based social contract but a system whose balance favors the few while the rest (about 90%) scramble to compete for the scraps hoping to reach the top 10%. Here is the reality... climate change, over population, resource overuse, lack of re-use , destruction of soil, water, fuel resources, and a continual slide down toward human extinction. What are the signs of this? Well the most visible currently are poverty and homelessness. Less visible are nutritional decline of food, increasing sensitivity to food and other environmental factors, increase in substance abuse, violence, and attraction to authoritarian leaders. If this is not reason to change direction, then understand that we all fall together, some earlier, but all will fall, and this century.
We do not need socialism, we need humanism, a pandemic of humanism, and we need it now.
