- piva00 3y agoPerhaps the issue then is the hyperindividualisation after the atomisation of society. To my mind it's not perfectly rational to maximise my personal wellbeing and wealth in detriment of others, maybe I have a collectivist sense higher than others, maybe we should instill that across societies. The 20th century went too far with the me-first approach, we can see it's not really working for societies.
