What is best for all? Is what is best for me, best for you?



What is best for all? Is what is best for me, best for you?

When looking at this question, there are a few parts to it to construct the answer. First, we can look at what is best for all at a large scale. Second we have to look at a small scale.

At a large scale we are talking about essential needs that we all need to be able to live comfortably in the physical Earth. Those essentials are very basic needs such as food, clean water, shelter and clothing; a basic human right (animal and plant kingdom if we don’t count clothing, because they obviously do not require clothing).
If we take it one level further, to be efficient and proficient individuals within contributing to ourselves as a group of people (society) we all require proper education (that teaches life skills and academic skills), health care (because our human bodies get sick and require “proper maintenance”), equal technology distribution/access (we live in a digital age). Once our needs and requirements are to live on Earth are met, we can create the “right” environment-opportunities for us to express ourselves within the area we chose to expand in (what we can call “career”, “hobby”).  Having said this, what is best for all are necessities that support all of us within our existence in the physical. However, what is best for all is NOT just about us as living beings. It is also about Earth as a whole. Thus, the products we create as a whole must support the physical as a whole (ourselves, plants, animals, insects, every living thing that currently shares this living space-Earth!).

On a small scale of what is best for all we need to explore practicality and fairness.  Equality is not about we all having the “same” things, the design of items or the same amount of things per say. It is about fairness which means that if a person does not require an item, or a type of clothing or a type of food there is no need why this person should have it equally to everyone who does require it. That is decided upon living area, space, environment and so on. Use your common sense. Equality is about practicality. If an item is not practical to a certain living area, it only makes sense that this item is not provided there and that obviously a different item would be required instead. This way production and consumption is equally distributed across by needs and practicality. That is fairness. At the end all needs are met equally for everyone!
Best for all is simply supporting each other one an equal at a practical and fair level. Thus, what is best for me as a whole IS what is best for YOU as a whole.
