CarlYoungblood:Another difficult factor here is that to really implement these programs effectively you would need to interfere with these countries' sovereignty, since most of them would see your assistance (at least if implemented on this widespread and pervasive a level) as supplanting the purposes of the local government, so a lot of negotiation would need to take place.
Precisely. Many
people still follow the primitive evil version of the golden rule. Do unto others as you want done to you. But people, as they should, want different
things. You've got to find out what they
want, first, then simply help them get that, not what we want them to have.
And when I say "what they want", I’m not talking about
their primitive leaders. I’m talking
about everyone, first and foremost all the little and minority people. If you can truly manage and verifiably know that,
everything else should be a completely trivial no brainer. As these powerful numbers clearly show, we
have the resources to do most anything we want.
The only problem is, we don't know what that is, and we leave it up to the
primitive leaders to try and use the rest of us to fight their wars, to get
what they think the rest of us want for everyone.
No government would have any power, especially to fight
wars, if you could reliably and easily show that the people wanted something
different.
As it should be, knowing what people want is where all the
power and authority is.
