Comment on The defining conservative trait: selfishness

I think it’s a human problem. It’s in our genes. Some of us are supremely selfish and some of those people have no regard for the health and wellbeing of anyone who gets in their way. Just look at our history.

I think it’s a human problem.

Absolutely. I completely agree, and anyone who disagrees hasn’t read a world history book.

  That is just such a useless relativisation of the issue. There are problems all over the world sure, but there are also varying degrees of these problems. The US is facing a lot of different problems than the EU for example. So just saying “that is just human nature” is self-defeating and wrong, because obviously some of the problems the US faces have been fixed, or at least mitigated, to a varying degree elsewhere.

  This is the reason that time is a flat circle that consists of only about 100 years.
