AMERICAN VALUES
The one single most important American value is
the Golden Rule, "TREAT
OTHERS AS YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE TREATED."
The Golden Rule is the
foundation of Democracy, because the Golden Rule directs us to give
the
same power to others as we would like to have for ourselves, namely, the
power to make decisions in matters affecting our lives. How much power?
The same as we have ourselves, and this leads immediately to the idea of
"one person, one vote," with all votes being of equal weight. So,
Democracy
is the natural result of applying the Golden Rule to the question: "What
kind of government should we have?" Similarly, the Golden Rule leads
directly to the idea of equality of all people under the law.
The Golden Rule Leads To "The Greatest Good For The Greatest Number,
With Basic Rights For All."
"TREAT OTHERS AS YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE TREATED."
When it is applied to Politics, the Golden Rule leads to policies which
create "The Greatest Good For The Greatest Number, With Basic Rights
For All." Thus, total good is maximized and none are denied
their basic rights in life. This is a perfect formula for happiness and
social stability anywhere!
The tragic Republican flaw: "I earned it myself, so it belongs only
to me."
Many Republicans have trouble with the idea of
"basic rights for all," because they think that people on
the
bottom of society do
not have economic rights of any
kind unless they themselves "earned them." Too bad. This is the tragic
flaw in Republican thinking - "I earned it myself, so it belongs only
to me!" By this Republican kind of thinking, only
the people on top are entitled to much of anything, because they
supposedly
"earned it themselves," which is total nonsense. By themselves, they
couldn't do anything, except maybe build a cabin out of trees and plant
some corn in the ground and try to kill wild animals by throwing rocks at
them. This is what you can achieve by yourself. Everything beyond this
depends on an intricate social context which has been built up over the
years by millions of different people, such as soldiers, laborers,
policemen, firemen, inventors, doctors, lawyers,
factory workers. The individual
Republican who thinks he "earned it himself," is tragically deluded.
Without the social context, built by others, he could do nothing. The
social context enables the wealthy person to earn his fortune; the social
context deserves its fair percentage.
AS DEMOCRATS AND AS AMERICANS, WE NEED TO IMMERSE OURSELVES IN THE
GOLDEN RULE - "TREAT OTHERS AS YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE TREATED" - AND MAKE
IT THE CENTER OF ALL OUR POLICIES. This gives us the unassailable high
moral ground, and insures that we never go far wrong in anything we try to
do!
