How grateful I am to be a retired neurologist and scientist, and no longer a high school student facing the newly sought after curriculum of How to Become an Entrepreneur – a businessman devoted to accumulation of profit as foretold by this morning’s TV news.
Imagine a total culture devoted to nothing more than profit, wealth and power. Now at least there is still some semblance of a belief in art, creativity and human worth. Will a Christ–like figure arise from Wall Street to form the most powerful, soulless religion? I think not, making life on this planet still desirable, though not necessarily in America.
Anybody out there interested in exploring with me the value systems of New Zealand, noted to be civilized and caring about the worth of the human race?
Hey Babbo,
Good article – as a matter of fact I was just discussing this with Kevin. I love that you raised me to understand human value over profit. That using your intelligence in a creative and meaningful way is more valuable than what’s in your wallet. Love you and all you taught me in my life.
