Individual Opportunity vs  Greater Good?

 

 

 

Of course the ideas of capitalism are an enterprising example of economic opportunities for all. Practical unrestricted economic opportunities for all. But only for the greater good of the community.

 

 

"This is the core of Rousseau, Hegel and Marx--that is, the individual must sacrifice his independence, free Will and personal pursuits to the greater good, and in that way only will he become more fulfilled and self-realised, but the entire communitv will benefit as well."

 

" In America. capitalism and constitutionalism are ramparts that stand against Marxism and progressivism and, therefore, must be discredited and Ultimately demolished. For the progressive, like the Marxist, economic and political power must be in the same hands, the hands of a relative few in charge of the state."

 

"However, much groundwork must be done to create broader acquiescence or acceptance to this alien transformation, where the philosopher /kings and intellectual masterminds disassemble and, thereafter, remake society. The solution: indoctrinate "the masses," who have been raised to respect and revere the idealised tradition, custom, faith, and patriotism, to abandon the their supposedly obsolete beliefs for a promise of an organised, collective Utopia."

 

 

 

"Change the people to accommodate and eventually support an autocratic government ( for the people by a fewer persons -elites ) that can allegedly manage their lives better than they can."

 

 

This state of play means that all invention and innovation becomes "property" of the State  whereby entrepreneurs and their start-ups are directed by the fewer but more cognisant of the" greater good " concepts and concentration of economic,cultural, social and political power.
 

When the means of production,capital and other resources are combined the State ( Huge Govt) claim and wield all necessary power, all aimed at the "greater good " the individual is swallowed up in the Utopian ideal. Individualism is extolled but only for or as the means to the "greater good" end. The State becomes the de facto father and mother in a similar oligarchical fashion to National Socialism ( Nazism ) and Fascism. Rebranding these political institutions is Social Democracy and Techno-feudalism.
