Mccoy the America you describe does not at all resemble what i see. The difficulty with your assessment is it ignores the sufferings most Americans face. And it centers on the success and money machine of the rich 🤑 who really have no regard for those in lower economic strata.
The really rich ones though usually provide jobs and wealth with their business ideas. A perfect society should welcome rich people and businessmen but have no poor people. Such societies are very rare, a couple of examples I know are Sweden and Luxemburg.
Italy is not like that, Italy has presently too many poor people.
Re. the Roman empire, it was a society which developed right in the middle of the Kali Yuga. Are you referring to that in light of Mr. Musk's recent declared obsession on it?
Yea and many elite people from the U.S. clones attempt to write off the successes of countries that make their whole society more happy by saying that a socialist system would only work in a small country. Why limit the possibilities of socialism in this way? The Indians in America did not need Elon Musk to exist and create their own jobs before the white man disrupted this country. Essentially such people like Elon Musk, Donald Trump and Bill Gates came and ‘stole’ the means of production for their own extravagant life styles. I do not have any problem lumping these people together. I do not have to separate them into Republicans and Democrats. There are also many ‘lower class’ people who are selfish. The wealthy do not have a monopoly on selfishness, but rather a monopoly on ‘maya’ and ‘avidya’. People existed fine on this continent far before those ‘creating jobs’ appeared. Most people that have stimulated the economy by creating ideas that put them to work only created more hardships and misery for the general public. That is why these people - for the most part - do not meditate. They have only created more diversionary tactics for the masses delusional activities and useless desires…. As well as ignorance for themselves.
Yes I am making a comparison with Musk, Trump and those excelling in the destruction of the values of a wonderful original idea for democracy. They are only leading this nation in a free fall towards a loss of democracy, freedom and the empire that once thrived here; just as the Romans saw their empire crumble. Instead of helping the rest of the world, they are promoting a philosophy of selfishness that extends beyond the borders and will only hold back the promise of the Dwapara Yuga. But these type of dips in spiritual awareness only last for a while and then again the spiritual progress will return as we begin to see spiritual beings evolve towards caring societies. Unlike what is now taking place in this country because of misplaced priorities, which Paramahansa Yogananda saw happening here back in the early part of the 20th century. I’m sure there were people in your country who saw the fall of its empire because of those creating jobs and controlling the lives of others as well. Such people, for the most part , are really promoting a stronger materialistic approach and attitude that deteriorates their own countries progress.
I do not see myself as obsessed with such people or having any hidden agendas against them as you appear to insinuate, that those disagreeing with them feel. But rather pity them for creating the karma for themselves that only perpetuates their own ignorance. Such people will never have any experiences of spiritual awakening or psychic enlightenment this lifetime or for life times to come before recognizing the happiness of others and not just their own…. Which is sought from material accomplishments instead of spiritual understanding.
