So maybe "some people" is actually most people.
In fact, I'd say Travis is 100% correct. Most people out there would rather blame someone else for their problems than take personal responsibility.
- timthelion 10y agoOnly, in some cases, people actually have another person to blame... Like in the case of this driver.
- coldtea 10y ago>Most people out there would rather blame someone else for their problems than take personal responsibility. And why not? There are 8 billion people out there, and one of you. And tons of people who came before the person was even born and shaped the place one was born in, were responsible for their childhood, designed their education programs etc. And of course others are in power and shape policy. Who is more likely to have created/sustain the situations affecting someone? Themselves or the tons of others?
- dllthomas 10y agoThis is balanced, to some degree, by locality and focus. I leave open the question of how it all nets out.
- coldtea 10y agoFor a slave in ancient Rome, for example, it would be quite absurd to consider himself responsible for his fate. A few opportunities aside, I'm not sure it's much different for a modern person.
