I think the less 'political' a person's life is, the more we'll be able to see his qualities as an individual come out.

Meaning, if a society's laws only concern themselves with wherever violence is actually appropriate, i.e. protection of natural rights and nothing beyond that, you'll see individuals flourish morally, spiritually and economically.

Does this make sense to you?

if you mean less government interference, particularly in education, yes. people should be left alone to live their lives and keep most of what they earn aside from what is absolutely necessary to levy as tax for roads, infrastructure, etc.

here in north america, it is past the tipping point. kids are being taught non-skills that serve to create division and bigotry meanwhile the literacy rate is appalling and they can't reason or do math or they only look at stats and not people. the average IQ is -15 of what it was for example.

another piece of the puzzle is loss of morality and demonization of spiritual life. i had to seek it on my own, my parents had no spiritual life. they just didband said what they were told to.

i think you're in India? if so, beware if and when this starts over there. it seems to appear after a country fully develops.

i spent about a month in northern India in 2014. loved it there. the people were real, life was real.

I don't think it's about development though. Whatever development any country has had is because of capital accumulation and savings.

Fiat money, central banking, state production and provision of any good and service will inevitably lead society down this path.

I don't think any civilisation or society can last with a government. It will inevitably deteriorate over time due to its government.

I think it's possible for a civil/society to last with government but not with overrreaching government.

the past 40-70 years in the West have seen a degradation of education and more and more tax to feed politicians.

perhaps if there are limits set in the beginning? idk

the Internet has made things worse by far, socially especially in the West. people no longer talk face to face as they once did.

I remember when it was not like this.

idk.

The nature of a government is to eventually overreach, and remove whatever limits were set on it for some reason or the other.

The internet has been the best medium through which the truth can be spread. I owe a great deal of my personal growth to it. Just need to learn how to do filtering.
