All in all, an interesting survey, but only worth a passing glance.

It’s impossible to save the Planet by doing bad things…

“Yes, you might be saving the world, but it doesn’t make you better than anyone else.”

People are part of this World. What has puts us in this mess was thinking that the world belongs to us, and just us…That’s why, to me, someone that steals from other people, is not trying to save the world.

It doesn’t make a difference if you steal from another person or if steal from the Planet…Stealing is stealing and stealing is wrong.

Where once “sophisticates” and “sharp operators” were unpleasant and unscrupulous, those same terms have become flattering. It doesn’t take a degree in history to look back two or three generations and see the degradation.

When you are a law unto yourself, when you are the alpha and omega, rules do not apply, morals and ethics are outdated symbols of the global evil “old white men”. Moreover, you can prove your superiority by taking unto yourself whatever you can get, your ‘cleverness’ proving the idiocy of the rest of mankind in comparison.

They may have been inadvertently testing IQ and I don’t know which group would have come out ahead.

There is a certain level of smug among all people. People are blind to their own smugness and that explains why they think only other people are smug, or seek status for that matter. Prius drivers don’t feel smug but certainly think Hummer drivers (or Fusion drivers) are smug and round and round it goes.

Analysis of things that don’t exist can be entertaining but rarely productive. Exactly how many angels will fit on the head of a pin?

As social primates, once our bellies are full we spend most of our energies seeking a higher rung on the status hierarchy or at to least maintain the one we have achieved. We also spend a lot of time trying to tear down other status symbols to replace them with our own (Fusion vs Prius).

As long as energy efficiency can be maintained as a status symbol instead of being just another passing fad, it’s all good.
