As a part of the elite percentile of this bell curve you discuss, I’ve got to tell you, that having people from the lower middle (like you) rant and rave about how you think you know the way society should be structured is good for just about nothing, but a frustrated laugh. Oh the irony of how a government created communication platform (the internet for you lower bell curve folks) has given the unintelligent the opportunity to fool themselves into thinking they are intelligent. Read a few philosophy books and you think you know it all. But here’s a clue for you… if you think you know it all… you’re on the low end of the bell curve, PERIOD.
This amerika place needs a healthy dose of humility shoved down your throat, and maybe just maybe you will awaken to the reality we live in, as opposed to your dreamy utopian view that has nothing to do with reality.
Here’s what your next blog post should be about… Explain top to bottom what your society would actually look and act like. – What if any taxes are there? – What leaders if any are there? – Who organizes any societal level organization? – Does your society even have roads, police, firemen, army, space travel, the internet (refer to the above, regarding the internet being a government created communication platform)?
Meanwhile, you’ll probably want to leave out all the tricky little details, like slavery, the lack of technological advancement, an uneducated populace, the tyrannical oppression that would actually take hold. That way you will at least come off, as though you’ve spent some time thinking about your completely misguided fake utopian dream.
Better yet do the world a favor and take some of your own advice, by realizing that you are part of the low end of the bell curve, and get the hell out of the writing business. http://www.amerika.org/politics/leaders-and-followers/?doing_wp_cron=1346124279.2818880081176757812500
