When selfishness is the greatest value

A society is in trouble.  This little piece, courtesy of the always revealing Huffington Post, contains one overarching theme: I alone matter.  It just assumes what’s good for me should be the only thing I care about. The rest of the universe? Well, that’s a distant last when it comes to my priorities.  A society can’t exist like that forever.  Already we’re starting to see the first rivets popping and seams tearing.  And I fear once we crash, it’s going to be a crash the likes of which the world has never seen.
