What is the source of our problems?

What is the source of all of our problems? Terrorism. Political violence. Poverty. Global Warming. What is the root source of these problems, and why are we the only species that has them?

I think the weak and powerless are responsible for all our problems: people of color, the homeless, Muslims, the poor, immigrants, sexual minorities, atheists, and refugees.

For the US at least its money in politics. How can over 75% of the US and 70% of NRA members want universal background checks for gun purchases and congress does nothing? How can we have thousands upon thousands of people dying annually from lack of healthcare and they dont want to expand coverage? How can Social Security have an 80-85% approval rating and one political party is talking about cutting it completely? The government does not represent the people. The government is not interested in solving these problems and instead exacerbates them because they are influenced by the big money interests that profit from the persistence of these problems. Until we transition to clean publicly funded elections these problems will continue to plague our nation and our world.

Greed. Just about any conflict can, at its most base level, be traced back to greed, in one form or another.

You hit the nail on the head! Love of money. And money just a chip to buy sex.

Humans are so primal. Such a wide valley . They won't make it

Trying to simplify all in life down to one ideology is the source of our problems. You can't squeeze it all into one box with one answer, and when you try to squeeze it you just misunderstand and do harm.

Life is as complex as the composition of the oceans. Humans are as diverse as the lifeforms swimming in that ocean. To stand back and say the problem is all the sharks and then try to take out all sharks would be naive and just mess everything up more.

The source of our problems is the war against personal responsibility.

Unrealistic demands in expectations of outcome, without doing the most important work to make that happen.

Entitlement Mentality

Everyone wants to run the government, but no one wants to prioritize spending, the budget and the deficit.

They want by the people for the people, but they don't treat the country like its their home that they love, and they exclude themselves from the family of citizens and make demands without prioritizing and taking responsibility for

everyone and every issue the family faces together.

These are like toddlers in the check out isle, they are only aware of the mm&ms;and the kitkats, but they are completely unaware of everything else!

And the other source if the problem that goes hand in hand with these pervasive attitudes, is the groups, media, and the politicians who encourage this for political gain, power, and other agendas that are in opposition to America, that are the raging river of destruction taking away their heritage and holding them back from experiencing everything America has to offer.
