In a company it's totally okay for the owner to say well if you don't want to support a mission

I don't need to support you and you know the deal is off so to speak so you can be fired. You can't be fired from

society. I mean you can be exterminating and that's what some of these ruthless and evil leaders do saying well you're not a part you you don't if

you're not committed to the transcendent goal of our race, we're going to get rid of you because you're a traitor

to the people that you're from an inferior race and so on.

And then, well, I don't have to go into details of how much horror that has created it historically.

So I believe that the role of a society or the mission of a society is to become a platform

in which individuals can pursue their individual goals and life purposes

with peace and with mutual respect.

And I emphasize this because your freedom is where mind starts.

So you're free to use your property

and you're free to pursue your property and you're free to pursue your life ambition but with some

boundaries based on the need to coexist you can't say oh to pursue my life and vision, I like your car, so I'm going to take it.

That's the dissolution of society.

So that's why I mean by an institutional structure that harnesses the individual's desires

for self-improvement or the improvement of their condition in a way that doesn't harm through coercion or aggression

or violence, the opportunities of other members of the society to also pursue their

ambitions and that's a very important structure that underlies every

successful society. I'm Sreni Rao and this is the unmistakable creative
