The big question is why are children and young adults being taught to think they should get something for nothing? Why does being born entitle you to anything? That concept is reserved to the scum sucking monarchies of the world that I still can't believe people allow to exist.

The Earth is our apple that we all have equal access to and own. It comes with personhood.
Why does being born entitle you to anything?
Because responsibility is inherent to being human, with access to metaphysical-1, mind/intellect/concepts.
That concept is reserved to the scum sucking monarchies of the world that I still can't believe people allow to exist.
And there are those deep ecologist who believe humans are the scum of the Earth because their polluting the ecological environmental pew they exist in. There is truth in that. Humans may be the largest cancer on Earth. However, that is our God/Universe given right to destroy ourselves { oblivion } or prosper in harmony with nature { Utopia }.
There are no gurranttees humanity will pass the test for their continued existence on Earth because of their lack of unified collective ownership operations or,
that, there exists no God/Universe given warranties i.e. a volcanoe, celestial object etc can take out humanity at any time.
We are born into existence and go with we are given.

Dollars is not real wealth { energy/physical }. Credits are not real wealth { physical/energy }.If everyone would be given 1 million dollars, than prices would dramatically raise.
They are a metaphysical-1 accounting system associated with some real wealth.
Any economic accounting system can only work as far as human integrity is a priority and it is a unified Earth system.
..."For instance, there’s still no telescreen-like single unified government platform monitoring social credit. Instead, you have around 40 pilot projects operated by local governments such as Suzhou, alongside more than half a dozen commercial outfits operated by the likes of Alibaba and Tencent Holdings Ltd., which much more closely resemble traditional credit-rating businesses."....

@Stronn
..."The fear stems from the fact that as commercial credit systems like Sesame have started taking off in China, around half a dozen local authorities have launched pilot credit systems specifically designed to socially engineer behavior. These, too, ascribe a number to citizens. Good deeds gain points; bad deeds lose them, with perks and hardships attached. If you fall afoul of a pilot system, you cannot get a loan or mortgage, even if your offense is nonfinancial, like quarreling with neighbors. Conversely, nonfinancial “good deeds”—like giving blood—can cause your loan’s interest rate to drop.
This overlapping mishmash of commercial and state-run systems has stoked fears that China’s autocratic Communist Party is planning by 2020 to implement a single citizen score using opaque algorithms that’s largely political."....

Inequality ensures social order.
Who's going to do all the donkey work otherwise?
Money is the stick or the carrot that motivates the donkey.

Money is the stick or the carrot that motivates the donkey.
Money is one primary pathway to,
Spirit-2 { physical-energy } ---and its resultant spirit-1 { metaphysical-1 spirit-of-intent }--- are the basic "stick" for human desires to survive and then prosper.
I like the Chinas idea of including moral behavior { integrity } into their 'Sesame' credit system.
What type of poverty are you referring to? National poverty or international poverty? National poverty can be reduced by the poor people emulating those who are rich and by doing the stuff they do. International poverty in places like Africa can be reduced with a US invasion.

When the US has stayed, it created prosperity like in Germany, South Korea, and Japan. When the US has left, it created ISIS in the middle east.
-->
@Alec
If only things were that simple.
Tell me:
If your solution is so perfect; then why hasn't The U.S. slowly worked it's way South and North, invading and assimilating as it went. Thus creating the perfect American Super Continent?
Why waste all that time, effort and resources in the Middle East region, achieving temporary mayhem and ensuing chaos?
Look at what happened in Korea and Indochina. The U.S. didn't account for itself very well there.
I would suggest that you over-estimate U.S. capability somewhat.
-->
@zedvictor4
I'd be fine with the US gradually taking over the rest of the western hemisphere as long as we don't screw the locals. I'm kindof an imperialist.
As of right now, I don't support what's going on in the middle east, although Obama tried pulling troops out of there, and he created ISIS in the process, albeit accidentally.
Look at what happened in Korea
South Korea's doing pretty well because of American influence. Vietnam is in a bad place because the US withdrew troops and let the commies take over.

@mustardness
You call THAT an invasion, it was the British who first attackedCanada (War of 1812)
Cherokees (Indian Removal Act)
Not an invasion
Mexico (Seizing of California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, some of Colorado, New Mexico, and the Texan border with the Rio Grande)
You know that the Mexicans invaded first,right? oh wait, you never passed middle school.
Germany (World War 1)
Again!, Germany was going to start a war with America,this was in self-defense
Iran (CIA overthrows elected Prime Minister)
Elected? You called that dictator a elective! Retard level 100000
Afghanistan (Response to 9/11)
Taliban not the afgani government,retard
You clearly don't have the foggiest idea of what you are talking about. Get out mustard man

@Alec
Yep one half of Korea is doing O.K.
Did you forget about the other half.
And in Indochina despite their best atrocious efforts and overwhelming military superiority, the U.S. simply lacked the will to overcome the resilience of the Vietcong.
Quite frankly; U.S. military intervention (meddling) around the World over the past 75 years, has largely been an embarrassing failure.

Here is one of the resultants of that insane and unecessary war.
..."Total numberof land-mines 110 million in 64 countries"....
...10 million in Cambodia..........
Bosnia and Herzegovina --152 per square mile----3,000,000
Cambodia........................--143------------------------10,000,000 million

@zedvictor4
North Korea is a shithole due to the communism that the US prevented from spreading to the South.

@mustardness
Unfortunately landmines were/are a sad fact of human conflict.
Nonetheless, landmines do not address the highlighted issue.

Communism is a philosophical daydreamers utopia.
As I implied; the U.S left the Korean Peninsula with only half the job done.
-->
@zedvictor4
Communism is an evil idea and system. The notion that you.can jail people for their political opinions is tyrannical. The 2nd protects the first.
If the US completes the job, then China might start a war. The USA should do something like buy North Korea from.Chinese influence. Making South Korea a state also can prevent the country from becoming Communist by making attacking South Korea attacking America.
-->
@Alec
What you describe isn't Communism. That is Tyrannical Autocracy.
As I clearly stated; Communism is an impossible utopia.
The U.S. should just stop meddling. Especially in regions where they have little understanding and intolerance of cultural differences.

@zedvictor4
What you describe isn't Communism. That is Tyrannical Autocracy.
The government owns everything. Freedom of speech is restricted. China became a shithole through communism, hence why they still call themselves communist, even if they do things like invest in the stock market.
Communism is an impossible utopia.
It's a possible distopia. It's like me saying, "True Theocracy has never been tried in countries that are wealthy". If the US goes communist, then the most influential democracy with free speech and freedom to keep what you earn becomes an ally to communism, a system that has killed 71 million people in China, about 3x that the Natzis killed. "Democratic Socialism" failed in Venezuela.
The U.S. should just stop meddling.
If we stop meddling, then South Korea becomes communist/dictatorship just like their northern neighbor because China and NK would have invaded the country. Japan might be next.
Especially in regions where they have little understanding and intolerance of cultural differences.
How is cultural differences relevant?

@Alec
"How is cultural differences relevant"...... Sounds like intolerant Trumpian rhetoric to me.
How long before their chanting Seig Heil at Trump's rallies?

@zedvictor4
How long before their chanting Seig Heil at Trump's rallies?
Got that correct.
1} recent racist comments at Trump cult rallies,
2] past rallies where Trump encouraged violence, and his cult followers attacked those who spoke out against Trump,
3} after the latter at the above, at Trump rallies the began making paging announcments at there rallies to not use violence against those who were vocally against Trump.
There is much longer list of Trump and his Trumpanzee cult followers immoral behavior, this is just the most recent that makes the appear as intolerance racists ready to lash out any whose skin color is not like theirs or have recent ancestry that is just to strange for USA Turmpanzee cultists.
Mostly any who have darker skin or ancestry coming from country of anything not fair skinned caucasian.
It is said we have these racist, bigoted, violent prone peoples in USA, but any one whose has been paying attention for last 200 years should not be surprised at these Nazi-like types who live in USA and elsewhere. They have mental and emotional issues that stem from the hate in their heart and minds.
