But that tells you little of what is going on elsewhere and therefore what is also good for others. Unless you don'r give a shit about others! By restricting your view you can also be misled easily. And if that is the case you certainly cannot claim to know anything important about anything. Only by understanding the whole picture can you see where you fit in and and how you're doing compared to the overall situation. Perspective is critical, essential and mandatory to be knowledgeable.
You apparenrly feel having personal responsibility trumps all, so you need not concern yourself with other details (and others). They're not appropriately important to you.
You have claimed a connection to libertarianism and mentioned Paul.
That philosophy has little to no concern for others and exults "personal responsibility" as the ultimate virtue.
Based on your comment re pr I'm not surprised at your attitude and your attraction for libertarianism.
As I said they are of a piece; they and you just don't give a shit!
