Philosophy


Is it to benifit the society or to control the mob? Is the business of government social or capital? I ask this in philosophy because it requires a philosophical answer.
What I really am asking, is government there to provide services to it citizens or is it there to force confomity and obedience to authority as a benifit to trade.

All people have in the ground the same thing they want to reach: they want to find real, deep happiness.
The ways to reach this goal are different.
The current capitalist worldvision is based on power, selfisch interest and war. War between concurrents in economy. This is a model of battle.
But is it possible to built a society that is based on harmony, loving-kindness and compassion.

Society has created guidelines and “laws” which exist only in the human mind. Society is contrived and as much as we think we are individuals, we all conform to these laws.
We are just animals after all. Primal instincts mean nothing, what is right or wrong is defined by “rules” and “policies”.
