Who Do You Blame?
For Years I Have Wondered Why People Generalize and Put All the Rich in One Pot.
Humans love to generalize. It disappoints me when people who think they deserve more attack the people who worked their butts off to get where they are. The people that worked hard to get where they are include a good majority of the rich people you meet.
These Include:
- Entrepreneurs
- Athletes
- Artists
- Professionals like Doctors and Lawyers
- Family Wealth
The funny thing is that the enemy that they are looking for range from the rich down to the poor. These are the true enemies of the futures people desire. These are people who are leeches on the system. Their greed and laziness makes life more difficult for everyone.
These Include:
- Politicians
- Companies Who Bribe.
- Lawyers Who Litigate People and Business Into Bankruptcy.
- People in Government Who Take Bribes.
- People Who Can Work but Choose Not to and Rely on the State.
- Slum Lords
- Students Who Attack the Wrong Groups Based on Lies They Accept as Truth.
- People Who Follow What the Media Tells Them.
Now you may wonder why I did not include Crimimals. The reason is that the word is subjective. Who is the criminal? The young man in jail because he sold some marijuana or the Politician and Lawyers who make the laws making marijuana illegal?
As many of you know I am someone who believes in Pareto's Principle. This law of life pertains to every aspect of what we do. No matter what you are told 80 percent will always fail and 20 percent will succeed in any endeavor. Then you can take the top 20 and apply the law once again. I believe that when people can't achieve their desires through honorable means they will attempt to do it through coercion or by hurting others. Pareto's Principle applies here as well. 80 percent of these people can't compete with the top 20 percent. This is where you will find the people that everyone despises.
The problem with belief in absolute "truths" is that they will cloud your judgment when you are confronted with something that doesn't conform with your belief system e.g. black swan events.
For the most part I agree with you but I would not include Family Wealth in the same category as the other ones (I mean if I inherit something did I do anything to earn it?) I would probably create a different category for it.
Very true article @hilarski!
Our brains love it when we generalise and put people in boxes. It is more efficient for the brain. It starts to go wrong when we don't think critically about that anymore and start believing that people are put in those boxes because they belong there...
These type of posts make everyone aware yet again, that is never a bad thing :-)
Keep up the good work
I agree with you, we can not generalize and if we do, then we all know that life is not fair, not at all. There is a bigger problem I think, 1% playing God and enslave and the system which we have in place is evil and promotes evil ....look who we have as leaders and presidents, etc etc So, what you left to do is play the game but you not in the club, remember.
True @madlena. I hope blockchain innovations will challenge those things that are now still true..
Great one Randy! BTW all blame is intrinsically BS in a free-will Universe. If you step far enough and drop your separate self (which is an illusion anyways), you'll always realize that at some level of existence you participated/agreed with whatever is occurring in your personal life, including the stuff you "hate" :)
Yes, totally. The 17 kids killed last week "participated/agreed with" getting shot to death by a crazy person.
People blame, because they do not take responsibility for their thoughts and actions. It is easier to whine and blame.
I like your point and I completely agree!
I agreed with your opinion. Every person have lot of desires. When they failed to achieve them then they do wrong things and they do not care about others rights.
Thanks for sharing precious post.
@hilarski your blogs are always informative and admirable.
Stay blessed
Excellent post and i agree with your thoughts and we all need to think about ourselves and continuously try to develop ourself and try to give brilliant outcomes from our energy time and resource to the mankind by adopting this course we will see great results in near future.

Great sharing mr @hilarski I agree with you
If you work hard you will get hard

Nice one

I totally agree with your analysis mate, we have an old popular saying here that may resume the idea ''people are stones & pebble''
I hate making Generalization it reflects a very closed mind.
