Thought of the day

Plato invented the concept of Utopia, of Ideal Forms, of ideal government.

Since then people have always been concerned about concocting the ideal system, a system that cannot exist. That it does not exist.

Look at Europe. It is causing unbelievable pain to its citizens. Yet politicians are not convinced that the idea is total nonsense. Dangerous.

They respond: because it is still not perfect. We still need to do this and that and then some more.

What happened to looking at the individual. His/her rights to live in peace. Left alone. Let them express an honest opinion about what is going on. Why people are treated as if they do not matter?
