Natural Motivation

Humanity is natural, sustainable and the fittest way to go. We were not meant to be materialists.

Capitalism ignores humanity and our well-being. The power of human values are ignored, and half of us believe that materialism and profit are natural. The greatest capitalism has become mean and warlike, competitive and violent.

Half of us instinctively retain our natural humanity and reject hatred. Working together is where we come from and the logically obvious way to go. We did not develop language to get over on each other.

What should we do? If you’re directly helping other people, there’s less leeway. But if enough of us can stop supporting our inhuman system, maybe we can cause doubt and reflection and interrupt our race to doom. Perhaps the profit motive would be seen as problematic and not competitive with a socially oriented system and humanitarian goals.
